According to reports from the US "New York Post" and many other foreign media on the 19th, in the mystery of Princess Kate's "disappearance", Prince William's "scandalous mistress" Ross Hanbury was pushed to the forefront. Denied involvement in royal marriage.
Ross, 40, is a close friend of William and Kate. The New York Post stated that last week, American TV host Colbert "revealed" on a show that Kate's "disappearance" may be due to William's cheating, and Rose is the "third party." This quickly thrust Rose into the spotlight on the internet. According to reports, the scandal between Ross and William first appeared in 2019. As Kate has not appeared in public after abdominal surgery in January this year, and was discovered by the media not wearing an engagement ring in a family photo released on Mother's Day in the UK, Ross became involved in the royal family. Marriage rumors are back with a vengeance.
Australia's "Marie Marie" magazine said that Ross recently clarified to the American "Business Insider" magazine through his lawyer that these rumors were "completely false."
According to the "wion" website, Ross's family has a long history of contacts with the British royal family. His grandmother Lambert was one of the bridesmaids of the late Queen Elizabeth II. Rose and her husband, the 7th Marquess of Cholmondeley, also happen to be neighbors of William and Kate. Ross and her husband met in Italy in 2003 and got married in 2009. The two have three children, including 14-year-old twin sons and an 8-year-old daughter. Ross's family has come under suspicion after Kate's long absence from public appearances led to widespread speculation about an extramarital affair, with rumors that her daughter "is William's child" and rumors that Ross and her husband have separated.
After William and Kate were rumored to have had a marriage change in 2019, Kensington Palace made no official comment. Royal expert Scobie said the rumors were fueled by the royal family letting things go unchecked. "Marie Marie" magazine said that Ross broke his silence this time and formally faced the accusations for the first time. This was "a major turning point in the story." ▲
