The Most Disturbing Theories About Kate Middleton’s Disappearance

Brace yourselves because this theory drags King Charles III into the mix. Some fans think that both Kate Middleton and King Charles III are being deceptive about their medical ailments. Instead of the official reports, they believe that Middleton has secretly donated Charles a kidney — not just as a selfless, devoted daughter-in-law, but to secure her place as England’s future queen. “I’m thoroughly enjoying all the Kate Middleton conspiracy theories. I have no interest in the royals but the story about her recovering from donating a kidney to Charles in exchange for becoming queen one day is sending me,” tweeted one royal watcher, who’s amassed over 15,000 likes and 1,000 reposts, as of writing. 

So, a few things. King Charles III is currently being treated for an unspecified form of cancer. Even if he did require a kidney transplant, and Middleton happened to be a match, that story wouldn’t spark any less coverage than what’s already out there. Middleton’s selfless act would help smooth over the royal family’s bumpy image, so it doesn’t really make sense to go through all this trouble. Plus, according to the current laws of succession, Middleton is already guaranteed her spot as England’s future queen as long as nothing untimely happens to her or her husband, Prince William, who’s already queued up as the next monarch. Giving a kidney out of love would be an admirable gesture, but to secure a spot she already earned through marriage? Yeah, no.
