The Hits, with the Jono and Ben podcast. Thanks to Challenge, putting the service back into service stations. He teaches us new vocabulary and adds a layer of British distinction to the broadcast. Please welcome our UK correspondent, Gavin Gray. Good morning. Good morning to you guys. To be honest, I've forgotten the word that you used last time. I was like, I'm going to use that all the time, but now I've forgotten it. It's rapprochement. If I have to keep reminding you, it's sad. I mean, you've that you used last time. I was like, I'm going to use that all the time, but now I've forgotten it. It's rapprochement. If I have to keep reminding you, it's sad. I mean, you've got to learn these things.

Rapprochement, that was the word. It hasn't come up since, surprisingly, but anyway. Gavin, a lot of us are worried. Well, the internet is getting us worried. Where the hell is Kate Middleton, mate? Yeah, very good question. I'll tell you what, guys. Lots of people are now beginning to get seriously concerned, and social media is absolutely abuzz with conspiracy theories. Some medics or people saying they're medics saying's wife, had been admitted to hospital on January the 16th for planned surgery.

We were told it was an abdominal issue. That's all. That she was going to return home to her house, her cottage in Windsor, to continue her recovery. Now we're being told we won't see her until Easter at the earliest. And then, of course, this week, Prince William suddenly pulled out of attending his godfather's memorial service at St. George's Chapel at Windsor at the very last minute. Why? We were told it was a personal matter. So we don't know if it was related to Kate. But my dead guess is absolutely. How unusual is it for him to pull out of something like that last minute?

Very unusual, Megan. And I think he'd have been gutted, actually, because it led to a scene of, frankly, without the king there either, of who's going to lead the royals into chapel. In the end, it was a rather unbecoming, smiling Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson leading the royals in. Smiling, going to a memorial service. He looked like the cat that had got the cream. He's like, I'm back, baby. Andy's back. Hansy Andy is back.

Now, the Spanish tabloids, here's a theory. They've got a Spanish nanny, by all accounts. And according to the Spanish tabloids, they're saying Kate's in a coma. Yes. So this came from a Spanish journalist who said that she'd spoken within a source within the royal family. And you're right. The hook up there was saying was that she had serious complications following the abdominal surgery in mid-January. And she required, quote, drastic actions to save her life, that she was put in an induced coma. None of that has been confirmed. Kensington Palace and the press office there saying that was ludicrous.

And here's the quote, total nonsense, those allegations. Oh, we really hope that's the case. We really hope she's right. Because as you say, it's wild theories on the internet. I'm going to read some out now. You tell me if any of these could be possible. Okay. Brazilian butt lift. No. That's my favorite. game of hide and seek that's got out of hand no okay after a hair coloring disaster she's growing her hair out she needs some time away no i think all of these are

a bit wider than mark don't you dating pete davidson she's on the mass singer that's some other theories as well well the ones that the ones that I've heard on social media regarding her health have been the following. Some are rumoring she's had plastic surgery, a tummy tuck, that she's got cancer, that she's on drug detox, has got an eating disorder, has got a psychiatric problem,

or has had a hysterectomy. One even said that the hysterectomy might have been forced on her by the royal family because they don't want the queen to be pregnant. I mean, it's a ludicrous lot of ifs and buts, and all sorts of people, armchair experts, keyboard warriors joining in. They are getting calls not just every day, but pretty much every hour or so from media around the world

demanding to know what's wrong. Others saying, well, wouldn't it be good? And then we'll all stop calling you and taking, you know, all the pressure. Look, it's Prince William, but more than that, it's Kate's, Princess Kate's decision. Feels like the longer it goes on, the more pressure's going to come on them. Maybe, final kick in the guts to Megan, she's gone and taken her role on the new suits.

And it's all being secret. Hey, there's another theory. Gavin, lovely talking to you. Reposhmont reposhmont have a lovely day take care guys
