Some people are still talking about the suspicious bystander-video from two weekends ago, allegedly of Prince William and Kate leaving the Windsor Farm Store. You have to remember, initially the story was just a random sighting with no photos or videos. The Sun carried the story as an exclusive, having clearly been briefed by Kensington Palace that Kate and William were out and about in Windsor two weekends ago, pinkie-swear-promise. When everyone reacted to the Sun’s exclusive with “pics or it didn’t happen,” The Sun magically produced a grainy, weird video 24 hours later, allegedly taken by a bystander. When the video came out, the reaction was immediate, with everyone questioning whether that was really Kate (or William). Even Andy Cohen tweeted, “That ain’t Kate….” A BBC Sports reporter publicly questioned why British media was insisting that a random brunette speed-walking through Windsor was totally Kate.
In the days before Kensington Palace released the Kate-has-cancer video, there really was a growing consensus that the farm shop video was some kind of bizarre set-up using look-alikes. Then, last weekend, the Sun’s editor admitted that they (the tabloid) were “in discussion with the palace all along,” i.e., this was some special collaboration between palace and tabloid to (arguably) fake a Kate sighting. The story has largely subsided this week, post-cancer video, but Bot Sentinel and Spoutible founder Christopher Bouzy has still been raising hell about it on social media. Bouzy started out last week, merely questioning the Sun’s methodology in obtaining the farm-store video and wondering if anyone had bothered to verify any part of the story. Then the British media began attacking Bouzy as “Sussex pal” who was “attacking Kate.” There’s been a back-and-forth between Bouzy and the British media for more than a week. Then, on Wednesday, he published a thread about the Sun’s video, which you can follow below:
It's time to debunk the farm video.
This is Nelson Silva, the man who filmed the Windsor Farm video. In this clip, he claims he typically goes to the farm shop on weekends. So far, so good… pic.twitter.com/5zXzeIoQV0

I’m not going to embed the whole thread, but the point is that the guy who “filmed” the farm store video keeps changing his story and there are huge inconsistencies about how and why he even filmed the couple. The video itself is weird too, which Bouzy points out – there’s no reason for a zoomed-in video of two people, taken from roughly 20-30 yards away, would be that grainy and blurry. As I’ve now watched the clip dozens of times, I wonder why Kinesiology Twitter hasn’t embraced this conspiracy: that is not Kate’s gait, and that’s largely because Kate’s legs are not as long as this mystery woman’s legs.
Here, you can see the male subject look directly into the camera and look down immediately, followed by the female subject. They both look at the camera, but still, their faces are not clear. That doesn't make sense… pic.twitter.com/KpS6zdgbSN

Bouzy is doing great work because we need to remember that this isn’t just gossip, this is a state institution trying to pass of fake information to the public. We should all be raising hell about this.
Right, Nicole. The indifference to the royal shenanigans is a much bigger problem than royalists want to admit.
💯 it’s wild to me that more people aren’t up in arms about KP coordinating with the Sun! And all the rest! I guess when you’ve been sheep for so long – swallowing the insanity that one special family deserves all the money, palaces, stolen jewels, and bowing and scraping from birth to death – it’s hard to question anything. I really can’t understand it.
Absolutely! All the heavy-handed hateful attacks by royalists following the cancer video is aimed at shutting down any attempts to discover the truth, likewise their attempts at labeling all skepticism “Sussex Squad conspiracy theory.” I had a back-and-forth under a different post over the same thing. What are we supposed to believe? How can the woman in the farm stand video and the woman in the cancer video be the same people? How can we believe anything that comes from the entity that publicly released that frankenfoto? Kudos to Bouzy for not backing down.
No one wants to blame the British public for the state of journalism on that island, but I will. If the NY Times or WaPost behaved like the Sun did in this instance their goose would be cooked. Why is this stuff, this level of deception okay with the British public? Why do they seem so gullible?
“Why is this stuff, this level of deception okay with the British public? Why do they seem so gullible?”
Probably because the majority of them have been reading these type of tabloid reports for several decades, so they don’t know what is true journalism unless they actively seek out other publications. I mean even BBC has a nightly show recapping the front pages of tomorrow’s (Uk) newspapers, it’s only help to spread the tabloid style reporting. (Don’t know if BBC still do that now.)
I found it intriguing that the Brits indoctrinate their children from early age to adore & pledge to the Monach, not to the Nation ( or National Flag). The National Anthem is not about the people, history or the country but “Bless the King/Queen”? In a suppose democratic country?
iirc they also said it wasn’t cancer.
They simply cannot be believed, they are not credible. If their lips are moving, they’re lying.
Christopher Bouzy is amazing!
He is! He’s been getting attacked a lot lately by the BM, and some of the comments he gets are awful, but I find him well researched and reasonable. His coverage of US politics is good as well.
Yes he is! I am now following him on Twitter!
I read his whole thing and he goes point by point with it. I didn’t need him to do it because to me it was obviously it wasn’t either of them but I’m glad he did just to prove what liars they are.
I actually do believe that it was William, but not Kate.
I agree with ProudMary.
It seemed to clearly be William bit in no world was that Catherine
Agree @Susan Collins.
The uk reporting is basically fake all the way and the palaces join into fake news too. All rigged. Why aren’t there more people doing true work without adding their stupid biased grain of salt
Nicole hit it – it is really alarming that this is going on. See it starts small and if no one complains or investigates then it will just grow and infiltrate our government. This has more implications than just the royals. Personally I don’t believe we have seen her at all – picture with her mom, car picture with William, Windsor video, her video – all of it fake or manufactured.
I agree Piper—I don’t think we’ve seen her at all. The farm video is a different woman, the photo with her mother didn’t look like Kate at all to me (but it does look like Pippa). The “Kate & William in the car with Kate’s head turned away right when it was snapped” photo (i mean give me a break!) wasn’t real—They copy/pasted an old photo of Kate into the photo and it was so obviously badly photoshopped. And the latest video, of Kate talking, i strongly believe it’s A.I. It’s obvious to me, with the fake background & fake added-in background nature sounds, and her unnatural-looking eyes and oddly-moving mouth, and all the weird glitches. Where the hell is Kate, for real?
I agree that the cancer announcement vid was AI. It wasnt kkkHATE.
Ive read the analysis by a coupla AI specialists on the matter and one of them in particular broke it down so clearly. And one of the things that stood out for me was the frame-by-frame analysis he did of kkkHATE speaking from a podium (rmbr when it was hyped for days that she would be giving her first big speech on the “aaelie yaars” in front of an audience of experts? yeah) and the one of her on the bench.
He compared the cadence and tone and fluidity of her speech patterns and even if one doesnt want to admit that the bench scene was AI generated, based on one’s own intelligence, it begs explanation.
Then he also persuasively made you see that the bench scene was a two-dimensional image, like CGI, comparing it to other instances of her sitting on a bench and speaking.
Its really wild. And I reject the dismissive term “conspiracy theory” when its reasonable queries from folks using their commonsense to demand truth from power..
I also agree Piper. I dint believe not one photo or video. And certainly not this Farm video. This was the obvious one to debunk as not being Kate IMO. I was more fooled by the mother’s day photo at first than that one. The woman is clearly 20 yo with high cheekbones and a heart shaped face. Her gait is completely different and no it doesn’t have anything to do with weight loss. And she walks with her hands facing forward a certain way anyway.
I also believe the cancer video is AI. So fake. The background. The faint bird nature loop recording in the background. The way it’s blurred. Her teeth take a weird shape throughout. Her eyes are off. The way she is talking. Her mouth. And many more discrepancies others have pointed out on here and social media.
I mentioned on another thread that I also believe KP has already been experimenting with AI for some time.
I honestly do not think we have seen Kate. And it seems they just kept progressing with their fraud until one would half stick. I’m just appalled that they literally went to the lengths of having a body double filmed and thought everyone would fall for that. And just because the palace didn’t admit it was Kate doesn’t mean they didn’t OBVIOUSLY set it up and hope everyone believed it was Kate.
I’m feeling that the Windsor Farm Shop video was a KP AI test run considered moderately successful–accepted by some of the public, but debunked by too many too loudly. There were clearly moments in the farm shop video where it looked more like Kate and clearly moments where I said absolutely not her.
Going forward, KP decided to play it absolutely safe with the cancer video announcement and had Kate seated, with limited hand movements and the same facial expression for the duration of the announcement. That being said, I’m not 100% sure the cancer announcement is AI, but if I had to pick, the cancer video wins best AI Kate over the Farm Shop AI Kate.
Mmh, I’m still undecided on this video (on whether it was Kate or not – I totally think it was arranged between the Palace’s team and the tabloids). On the “gait” question: when people lose weight, their gait changes (at least that’s what I saw with my husband when he dropped quite a lot of weight rapidly a few years ago). If Kate lost weight over a short period of time due to her surgery (and it looks like she did, based on the video of our announcement), then it would not be surprising to me that her gait would be different. I’m much more troubled by the face of the woman in the video, who does not look like Kate’s spitting image (also, not quite sure how she went from “puffy” in that grainy car picture to “fairly gaunt” in the bench video over a period of 2 weeks, but that’s another question).
I am shocked at how many people bought this. Even without analysing feature by feature, it’s plain as day that this is a girl probably twenty years younger , healthy and energetic . Kate never moved like this even in good times , never looked so natural . Plus who on earth skips and bounces around a market stall after chemo..from my own experience with cancer sufferers in the family, they were not allowed to expose themselves to outsiders because the chemo kills off everything good and bad , leaving them vulnerable to every germ floating around
… after chemo… with better posture than ever, while wearing tight leggings, all following recent and serious abdominal surgery. (While also wearing 10 lbs of different fake hair and a much younger face, but sure, it’s her.)
I will say, a family member recently underwent chemo and steroids helped significantly, for a temporary energy bounce following treatment. But not to this degree.
I’ve no opinion whether that’s the real Kate in the farm store video, but whoever it is, she has extremely, stick-thin legs. I think that could make legs look longer. And, I don’t think a healthy person would be likely to be that skinny!
In the farm video, it’s not Kate’s face (which that alone proves to me it’s not her), the height is wrong, Kate doesn’t have long legs like that woman, it’s not Kate’s gait AT ALL, it’s not Kate’s style of dress, it’s just not Kate’s “vibe” whatsoever—and again it’s NOT her face. Nobody is even looking at “Prince William and missing Princess Kate” as they stroll by.—which is ludicrous. The video is very blurry for a reason.—to hide all the fakeness. And then there’s all the extreme weirdness around the making of it, and the news that The Sun & Kensington Palace colluded on it. I think it was KP testing out this Kate lookalike to see if people noticed it wasn’t Kate. I really hope people don’t let them get away with all these lies & fakery.
how do you explain the different eye color between the two videos?
farm store woman has brown eyes. Kate has grey eyes. that farm store video is as fake as a three dollar bill.
The cancer video. If it truly was Kate. She wouldn’t have worn that sweater. That sweater is something that people can just glance at and picture Kate. Sort of Like Diana and the one black lamb sweater. Just the sweater makes your brain think Di or Kate. Which is why it was used. And Kate has never been that natural of a public speaker. Or that still when talking. And everyone saying that KP couldn’t do something like that. Do you really think that MI6 who the tories fund. And Charles and William are patsies for couldn’t.
I used to live in Windsor and I know this location well. I also have friends who still live in the area and have snapped Kate and William on their mobile phones at various places (surreptitiously as their RPOs don’t like it). One of them got a photo of K&W just before Christmas at some fair she was helping at. My point – until Operation Debacle 2024 – K&W were relatively regularly seen about playing normal and people tended to let them get on with it.
My theory is that this video IS Kate and William but NOT this year. I don’t think even KP would be insane enough to hire lookalikes for this video but it being from some other time period would explain a. Why Kate’s hair/face look different, b. Why she is bouncing along carrying a bag, c. Why William is allowing her to stride along carrying a bag, d. why nobody is leaping to their feet going “THERE’S Kate!!” – because when it was filmed she hadn’t been MIA for months e. why the video would be deliberately made fuzzy/blurred so the fact that it was a different era K&W wouldn’t be so obvious, f. why there are no other photos/video/sightings from other members of the public who WERE actually there on the date claimed and g. why Nelson is being inconsistent/squirrelly. Also, h. it allows KP to be truthful when they say the video is K&W.
ETA: Nelson would have had to film this from his car as the RPOs would have jumped on him if they had spotting him doing it.
*takes off tinfoil tiara*
I’m. Shocked WanK spend any time together privately I guess unless it involves the kids. They seem to have loathed each other for years
@Charter – actually it did involve the kids so you make a good point! They’d brought them to the fair but yes, I was also kind of surprised to see them together in a non-public outing.
I hear what you’re saying, but the video was never publicly confirmed by the palace. The Sun said the Palace wouldn’t object.
I still don’t think Kate has ever had that face shape. I’ve gone back even to when she had a pudgy face and it doesn’t highlight as high cheekbones and heart shaped jaw. (You can put any photo into high contrast, black and white makes it easier to see where the light hits.)
My theory is William went there with an aide or body double who does security for Kate and let themselves be photographed (wink wink), so plausible deniability: the video is real, they never said it was them, they said they wouldn’t object if it were published.
WiththeAmerican, 100. I don’t believe that’s Kate, but I do believe it’s William. Regardless, if what The Hench says is true, and it is Kate, then that is not Kate in the cancer video. It’s one or the other. Both can’t be true.
@WiththeAmerican – on the ‘not publicly confirmed by KP point’ I agree with ML from the next post down “KP tacitly acknowledged this video. Victoria Newton is not going to double down on television saying that KP allowed this unless it’s the truth. KP had denied the Carole car picture and allowed The Sun to insist that this was Kate (with William). Afterwards, KP has never corrected the record, ”
On the Kate looks different from the bench video – that’s my point – both videos are Kate but from completely different times. My theory is that these were shot months, possibly a year apart – not days.
I should add that I welcome scepticism and disagreement with my tinfoil theory, btw! Just replying to those two points.
@thehench I think we are in agreement mostly, I just read that “tacit approval” as approval to run the farm video. It is not confirmation that the video is of Kate.
With the way KP has lied and outright deceived people about Kate and William, I don’t see why they wouldn’t be willing to pass the farm video off as her, they kissed the mothering day photo off.
That said, I totally respect your take and opinion. Just sharing why I’m stuck on mine! But overall, the larger point is as @ProudMary says, she can’t be both videos within a few days. Those are not the same people. So this ultimately is more deception.
We are just trying to figure out where that deception is and for what purpose!
This is a fascinating theory!! I wonder if there’s any metadata connected to the video.
That woman’s teeth are different too. I never believed that was Kate, healthy or otherwise. I’m on the fence if that’s William though.
it would be extremely stupid to have the real William with a fake Kate. extremely! I don’t think it’s him either. not that they haven’t been doing extremely stupid things all along, it’s just that usually they get away with it. but now everyone is looking!
my thinking is that the first pic is Carole and Pippa. the car pic with the brick wall is a sad attempt at photocollage. and both people in the farm shop video are actors. (I think the “Kate” is professional Kate impersonator Gabriella something – the one who didn’t make a statement. I think the one who did is named Heidi.)
I don’t know what to think about the bench video. it’s clearly at least filtered.
the other day I was on fb and saw an ad where “Selena Gomez” was offering an insane deal on a Le Crueset enameled cast iron set. so I googled and apparently scammers have been making these deepfakes of both Selena and Taylor Swift to try to grift their fans. so it’s clearly technologically possible.
as with so many people now, if the palace said the sky was blue, I would go outside and check!
This is actually a very good theory, maybe KP put out the story to the Sun and the Sun simply parsed their archive of old footage to help stick the landing. KP says nothing, they get free proof of life or to deny if it blows up, and the Sun makes money on the exclusive.
@The Hench — I 100% agree with your theory and don’t think it’s tinfoil tiara territory at all! In a previous post, I mentioned I thought that this was indeed W&K at the Farm Store, but it’s an old video. Kept on file for a rainy day. If KP and The Sun are indeed working together as they claim to capture this “recent” outing (of which Kaiser says $200k was paid), then why is it grainy? Why is it shot from kinda far away? Why is it so brief? Why pay THAT much money for it? Why would KP have to pay anything for it if this was all planned from the start? You’d think for that kind of money, a planned video of a planned outing would look, well, more convincing and worth all the trouble. I think KP knew this years-old video was available for purchase from a pap via The Sun and they desperately ran with it because they had nothing else.
‘William allowing her to carry bags’. Eh, William has never, ever been solicitous toward his wife. He let her carry a baby down metal plane stairs while she was pregnant. He routinely lets her make her own way up & down stairs while she’s dressed up in heels. And let’s not forget the infamous striding away from that boat, umbrella over his head, leaving Kate behind, & Harry to shout at him to remember that he had a wife.
The whole matter is so suspicious. The Sun editor Victoria Newton went on TV to say that she had discussed the video with KP and they had no problem with it being shown. It was also reported that the Sun paid 200k for the video which went on to make the Sun much much more money.
I don’t believe its Kate in the video but is KP actually saying it is?
KP tacitly acknowledged this video. Victoria Newton is not going to double down on television saying that KP allowed this unless it’s the truth. KP had denied the Carole car picture and allowed The Sun to insist that this was Kate (with William). Afterwards, KP has never corrected the record, which is part of the reason the public has such difficulty understanding why K looks different each time they okay proof of life.
They probably wanted to try the body double method to see if it would work thinking that if Poutine could do it then they could at least try.
The farm video was so fake.
I’m on the fence about the Kate-has-cancer video. People pointing to the sweaters being similar to another sweater she wore seven years as proof are ridiculous. But the video looks unnatural in a way I can’t put my finger on.
The fact that she was coherent and it wasn’t edited to high heaven due to her incoherence was the tail for me.
I’m going to keep screaming about context: this wasn’t just one “weird” photo or video. This was the 4th dodgy “sighting” after the TMZ car pic, the side profile pic, and the Mother’s Day photo. FOUR TIMES! They pulled this Where’s Waldo a** distraction campaign FOUR TIMES, and people are indignant and clutching pearls about irresponsible questions.
I’m glad Christopher Bouzy is asking questions, and I think it’s important to point out that Chris was instrumental in exposing the bot/troll network targeting Meghan, but with these doctored images/videos it’s a totally different beast, even to someone as immersed in new tech as he is. Tech guys can’t (definitively) spot the tech. That’s not a mistake, it’s a tactic, and we should all be worried that this tech is out there because I’m telling you right now it’s going to make our lives HELL as we get closer to the US election.
We know for a fact that Kensington Palace uses bots, trolls, and other nefarious means of digital comms. There’s a revolving door between KP and No 10 (incl. Simon Case, implicated in Spare). So in the context of the insidious microtargeting influence campaign that led to Brexit in 2015/16 all the way through the Tories being caught last week having doctored a video of NY to pass it off as London, if anyone on the planet was going to employ amoral tech to manipulate the public, wouldn’t it be these people? So imho it’s our duty to ask questions and hold them accountable.
This is about so much more than allowing a sick woman to heal in peace. It’s about the a future head of state’s office using amoral (should be illegal) tech to lie to the public at large.
The woman in this video seems energetic and youthful. The “official” Kate Middleton sitting on the bench in the other video seems older and more serious. This whole thing is just so doggone weird. To me, the strangest thing about all of this is that Will and Kate and KP didn’t seem to have a contingency plan drawn up just in case one of them was diagnosed with a serious illness. Even the most basic corporations and LLCs are encouraged to have plans set in place for such an occasion, and it is odd that KP didn’t spend any time gaming out what to do if one of them was out of commission. Members of the RF plan their funerals at an early age, but they didn’t plan for this? Come on.
I think the contingency plan was “we don’t need to tell the peasants anything”, followed by lets toss out a few scraps (single hospital visit, car with CarolE, fake mothers day photo, etc etc). They think they are above having to explain themselves.
I agree, Seaflower. They think they can just stay silent on the stuff that makes them look bad, throw out other stories about the Sussexes and hope everyone will forget. Wash, rinse, repeat.
1. The collusion between KP and Murdoch owned media is horrifying. Good sir, Bouzy, please follow the money/royal collusion with the rota/who funds the bot farms because the rats that stuck the UK with Brexit and stuck the USA with magats/the orange menace need exposed. 2. Keen is not in that video. It has been horrifying watching media outlets in the USA (like ABC, CBS and NBC), who have no apparent vested interest in the royals, broadcast it is factual.
I still think this video is just so strange, because whether or not its Kate, its clearly meant to convey a healthy Kate, whose recovery is going well, who is bouncing and skipping her way around Windsor. Even BEFORE the cancer announcement, that image was at odds with the stories about how Kate may or may not be back by Easter, Trooping was still in doubt, etc. And when you compare it to Kate in the cancer video – the difference is striking.
We know the video came out with KP’s approval and maybe even cooperation. So is the case just that whoever was behind it really didn’t know that she was undergoing treatment for cancer and was told to push a “healthy Kate” narrative, while another KP faction was planning the cancer video?
It’s really starting to feel like William and Kate are on very different sides here.
Wow! Becks1, if I could up vote this a thousand times, I would. This is the point I’ve been screaming: Whether or not both videos are fake, is besides the point (and they might well be). The main issue here is that the woman in the farm stand video was described as “Happy and Healthy.” But the one in the cancer video is “sickly and frail”, to quote BettyRose. So are we simply suppose to ignore this? Is Kate so sick that she can’t work for months, or is she spritely, healthy and energetic, so that she has no excuse for not working? It’s one or the other, both can’t be true people.
I mostly agree, it’s just that W was using K’s (good?) health to get out of work himself, and that makes no sense to me. Clearly he was portraying her as healthy, while at the same time he had to do the school runs and care for her because she was so ill.
@ML I know I keep saying things along these lines, lol, but it makes more sense if we consider what we know about William as a person. He is lazy, entitled, and doesn’t want anyone to have something that he doesn’t have.
So here, if Kate has an excuse to not work, William is going to use that excuse for himself because of those qualities. Why should she get a vacation for a few months while he has to work? (and I’m sure he thinks that chemotherapy is a vacation bc hes an ass like that.)
But at the same time, he still wants his divorce, so he needs Kate to not be TOO sick. Enough so he gets a few months off (and the public gets used to not seeing her) but not so sick that he can’t divorce her.
It’s twisted, but its William, so it kind of fits. We just can’t forget what we know about William and KP when looking at this whole situation.
Because otherwise – I’m not sure why KP would let that video be out there as some sort of “proof of life” if they could easily shut it down and say it wasn’t William and Kate.
I’m curious as to when William knew about the cancer diagnosis. You’d think he’d have known by the time the bbc studio filming was set up. Part of me laughs at the idea that Kate somehow set up the video with BP’s help and William found out when we all did. Or just a few hours before😂. The truth is the Sun kind of has egg on their face. They helped KP/William by showing a vid of a healthy Kate bouncing around the farmer’s market and then the cancer video was dropped by the end of the week. Maybe the Sun is annoyed at William playing them which is why they’re word for word accounting all his internet nicknames, like Baldilocks. Obv, this is me spitballing ideas.
Bouzy has been attacked all week. All he’s done is question the legitimacy of the video and the killed Mother Day’s photo. For that, he’s had his home address revealed and every troll accusation given weight in a national British tabloid.
Truth is, I still don’t think it’s her in that video for the simple fact her gait is all wrong. And the Kate from the cancer reveal doesn’t look as if she could speed walk that distance or carry anything other than herself.
At this point, Kate could show up literally anywhere and there are people will question if she is a hologram. Appearing to tacitly approve of this, and the Sun implying that they coordinated the walk about with the palace, confirms how unwilling they are to be truthful even AFTER the Frankenphoto drama. They didn’t dismiss it as “not Kate” (and it is SO OBVIOUSLY not her) because they want to keep using body doubles, and don’t want to set the precedent that they will confirm or deny their use.
The horse is out of the barn and there is no putting it back in. KP brought it on themselves.
The horse is not only out of the barn — she went to the Maundy Thursday service. But that’s another story.
I don’t think it’s Kate in this video at all — even if Kate has lost weight because of chemo (as it appeared in the bench video, which I believe was truly Kate), her gait wouldn’t change this dramatically.
And all the props to Bouzy for sticking to his guns.
I don’t buy this video and there’s nothing anyone can say to make me think Healthy Kate who walks differently and has a different face shape is the same person days later in the cancer video. Why are they doing this? That’s the question. I also don’t buy the man who captured the video, he was lying and giving way to much extra defensive detail.
I’ve seen the whole Sussex Squad attacked along with Bouzy. What’s so interesting is how instead of backing down, they’re using the attention to highlight disparities in press treatment and wrong doing, even calling out certain tabloid writers.
I only wish they all had one of those compilation tweets of the hate the British tabloids have done against Meghan pinned on their profile so when the tabloids go looking, they’re driving people right to the facts. Like when the Sun lady was targeting them, a pinned tweet of her nasty articles. Etc.
Good points all around. I’ve said from day one of this fiasco that the attempts to pin the questioning on the Squad is Orwellian, an attempt at shutting down debate thru deflection, which could mean only one thing: that there is a there there. But it won’t work, because even the right wing and Q-anon are now on the case. Have you heard of “Redacted?” it’s a right wing YouTube channel that’s targeted the Sussexes in the past. They have challenged both videos — the cancer and the farm stand. KP wanted attention from Americans, they’ve got it. They can’t get away with blaming the Sussexes anymore.
wow, no I haven’t heard of them. I will check it out (god help my algorithm). I have seen the q anoners and anti vaxxers out in force against the entire Kate narrative. Some of them are really bananas, but this is what KP invited by deceiving and lying.
the “lizard globalist” people (crossover with Q) are also on it. 😬
I think this is the Kate in the farm store video. The more well known Kate impersonator denied, but this lady has not spoken, I do’t believe.

I agree she has the facial structure and height. It could also be a security type body double like most famous people have. But the farm video is not Kate!
Agree, both. The farm shop video was a really low point in trying to dupe the public. Skipping around with bags of turnips!
#KateGaitGate 😆
😂😂😂
Hilarious!
If the Sun provided the video only after calls for visual proof, is it feasible that they first published the KP endorsed report (potentially made up), but then hired lookalikes and staged the video to quell online clamour? Was the video timestamped?
Thank you, Kaiser for posting on this! I’m grateful to Christopher Bouzy for his analysis (on this and many issues), persistence and courage.
Re the farm shop video, Bouzy has posted on Twitter:
“If a journalist from the NYT, WaPo, AP, or Reuters can confirm the farm video is authentic, and Nelson Silva is telling the truth, I will pen a full-page apology to the royal family and The Sun and never mention either of them again.”
I think the woman in the video is Kate but I’m also not going to criticize people who don’t think it’s her. After the whole doctored photo thing and the grainy car photos, no one can trust anything that comes out of KP. I also do think Bouzy does good work though I’m not entirely on board with his theory here. It was very obviously stage managed and Nelson Silva was a willing participant in the whole thing. Kate and William knew they were being filmed and they knew the video would be released. I know Kate looks way healthier here than she did in the BBC filmed video. Maybe she went to great lengths to look more sickly and weak but also maybe she was feeling well enough that day to be up and about in the Windsor Farm store video. Chemo is a cycle and from what I understand, no one feels the same on a given day.
Really @VilleRose?! You seem to be very invested in making excuses to support believing that’s Kate in the farm video. It actually doesn’t matter what any of us individually think. The truth matters, and that is a commodity in very short supply when it comes to the BM and the BRF! 🙄
I will admit that I was initially fooled seeing the poor footage from a distance. But seeing the close-up of the woman’s face! 🤦♀️ Quite clearly, that woman in the farm video is NOT Kate!!! No way is it Kate. And it probably is not William either. The cap the man is wearing covers most of his face, so there isn’t a very good view of him. But I bet they are both look-a-like professionals.
Not making excuses whatsoever. I just don’t have the energy for all the conspiracy theories surrounding Kate anymore. We know she has cancer now and this is why KP has been squirrelly for weeks. I choose to believe it’s her in the farm store video. We know KP lies and who knows, maybe I’m being fooled. But you also don’t need to bite my head off about it.
They really are swarming Bouzy, but he’s not backing down and has no problem trolling trolls. The UK press torpedoed whatever credibility they had and are lashing out. Bouzy is not some random either. He had the most accurate call on the midterm elections, better than most pollsters. Also, this was brought up on Keep It podcast yesterday. You can’t out put fake photos , incomplete and misleading information about a public figure, then try to claim the high ground or try to shame people after the fact for something they didn’t know . I don’t know what to think of the video other than it was being put out as part of the royal spin cycle to stall from eventually coming clean. There were people besides Bouzy, including PR people saying this was suspect and they were covering up something. They were right. They attack Bouzy for the same reason they came for Misan Harriman, because it’s easy to demonize them. Most people are leaving Kate aline snd not saying anything about ger now that we know what’s going on and don’t need to know more. At this point the UK press is just churning out clickbait and trying to deflect from their own dishonesty and the role they played in this whole saga.
I don’t believe any of the proof photos/video they’ve been putting out about this. She hasn’t been seen and is unable to ‘be seen’. They are using subterfuge, micro and recently macro aggression, feints, and lies to control something big with William and Kate. Not sure what the hell it is, but whatever it is, it’s something that needs to hid and managed.
You know right that Heidi the lookalike you show here straight away came out on socials saying nope not me in the photo or video. I was in another part of the country.
If she signed an NDA, she’d naturally have to say that. I don’t trust anyone anymore. If KP told me the sky was blue, I’d have to look up and check.
Watched the farm video and it is a mystery — People magazine ran a cover story of her and I think made her face leaner.
