Nelson had the encounter at the meat section of the store that William and Kate visited. While he is not shocked that the conspiracy theories surrounding Kate’s health continue, he is confused as to why the “trolls” are still at it, especially after the release of the video.
“This is a video clearly showing her and William. I saw them with my own eyes. It was a completely relaxed situation. What more do you need to lay off her? I thought after this was released they’d go quiet. But these people are so invested in the drama now,” the publication quoted him as saying.

BBC reporter Sonja McLaughlan was among many others who refused to consider the video footage as legitimate evidence. Like many others on social media, she claimed that the lady in the video is “obviously not Kate.”
“Some newspapers are reporting it as fact. But it’s not her. No conspiracy theorist but all very odd,” she said.

“W&K are the most wonderful parents and as normal/humble as they come. Let K who is recovering from an operation recover. Leave her and her beautiful family alone!!!!” he added.
