Kate Middleton recently sparked rumors that she could be suffering from bulimia because she has allegedly lost a considerable amount of weight.
And since she is married to Prince William, Star claimed that the Duke of Cambridge couldn’t help but worry about Middleton.
A source told the tabloid that Prince William tried confronting Middleton about her health struggles and weight loss, but the future queen consort shut him out. And in order to avoid the topic, Middleton has allegedly been sleeping in another room.
In true tabloid fashion, Star made their story sound like Prince William and Middleton are featured in a soap opera. And this even seemingly disrespected Princess Diana by mentioning her eating disorder.
The tabloid claimed that Middleton is so inspired by her late mother-in-law that she’s also suffering from bulimia like the Princess of Wales. They also said that Middleton has been wearing Princess Diana’s clothes or channeling her by wearing similar outfits. And this could mean that their eating disorders are also similar.
However, it is important to note that Middleton was never diagnosed with an eating disorder. And she has never said anything about her alleged weight loss. Princess Diana, on the other hand, has been very open about her struggles.
Gossip Cop also debunked the tabloid’s claims by pointing out how the tabloid used an unflattering photo of Middleton. In the snap, the Duchess of Cambridge looks thin. But this doesn’t mean that she’s frail or unhealthy.
The rumor-debunking site also said that the photo of Middleton that the tabloid used wasn’t a recent one.
“A person should be diagnosed with bulimia by a doctor, not by a tabloid. The tabloid has no photographic evidence and only relies on vague ‘insiders’ to tell it’s a disgusting story. Targeting Middleton’s weight is a sexist attack and using the deceased Princess Diana as a source is despicable. The story is false,” the publication said.
This isn’t the first time that Middleton is rumored to be suffering from an eating disorder or accused of losing so much weight.
In January, Star claimed that the palace is worried about Middleton because she just weighs around 115 pounds.
“She’s working herself into the ground and skipping meals an awful lot. As much as he tries to nag her, William’s gently pointing out it’s time to do something about this bad habit,” the source said.
