Kate Middleton’s slender frame has sparked speculations that she’s not healthy.

Throughout the past couple of years, tabloids have been saying that Middleton needs to eat more or that she needs to put on some weight.

Last year, New Idea claimed that Middleton fled Kensington Palace amid rumors that Prince William was cheating on her with Rose Hanbury.

The tabloid purposely published a photo of Middleton looking stressed and disheveled and claimed that she could no longer take the stress. As such, she, allegedly, decided to leave the palace without her husband and children in tow.

A source told the tabloid that Prince William and Hanbury’s affair has left the Duchess of Cambridge reeling. And it has also been difficult for her to eat healthily. As such, Middleton’s weight has dropped considerably.

In January, Star claimed that Middleton just weighs 115 pounds. And since she’s 5-foot-9, this figure, reportedly, makes her underweight.

Unfortunately, even though Prince William and the royal family have tried to step in to help Middleton, nothing has worked for the Duchess of Cambridge.

A source told the tabloid that Middleton’s busy schedule and increased workload has made it difficult for her to eat proper meals.

“Kate’s running to her public appearances or meetings at Buckingham Palace. She’ll generally ask an aide to bring her a salad, which she’ll nibble, along with some nuts and or dried fruit. Kate will insist she gets her nutrients in other ways. For instance, after each daily cardio session, she’ll treat herself to an energy bar or a protein shake to keep her energy level up,” the source said.

And just recently, the same tabloid published a similar story about Middleton. But this time around, Star claimed that Middleton now just weighs 99 pounds.

Since she’s, allegedly, been overworked for the past nine months, Middleton is still finding it difficult to eat healthily.

However, one should take all these health and weight loss rumors surrounding Middleton with a grain of salt. The Duchess of Cambridge is the future queen consort of the United Kingdom. If something’s wrong with her or if her health is deteriorating, the royal family would immediately step in.

During her recent appearance, Middleton seems happy and healthy even though her body remains slender. It is possible that this is just her built and this doesn’t mean that she’s underweight.
