  • Let's talk more about this video.

  • We got a lot to chew over and for that, let's bring in NBC news, royal commentator Daisy M Andrew.

  • She's also at Buckingham Palace for us, Daisy.

  • Good morning to you with so many conspiracy theories out there about this entire issue.

  • You can see her walking, she's walking quite well after having just had surgery.

  • Is this likely to put to rest any of the wild speculation out there or is this only going to raise more questions?

  • Personally?

  • I hope it will put to rest some of those completely crazy speculation and conspiracy theories that we've all been subjected to for the last few weeks so far, I haven't seen any proper question marks over this video.

  • It does appear to be completely genuine.

  • It's definitely them as far as we can tell.

  • So I think yes, it will put to bed some of those queries.

  • Uh Daisy was this, was this this photo of this video that we're seeing here?

  • Was this stage managed?

  • I mean, was this something that was likely done by design there with the backing of the palace?

  • I guess it depends on your definition of stage managed.

  • It's not like one of those paparazzi shots where we know perfectly well that the celebrity has said I'm gonna be on this beach at this time.

  • Make sure you're there to take pictures of me looking amazing in a bikini.

  • No, it wasn't like that.

  • This was a genuine member of the public who happened to see, uh Kate and William at this farm shop.

  • But was it set up in that they knew perfectly well that somebody would take a photograph of them?

  • Yes, I think that we can probably assume that was the case.

  • It wasn't as if they were gonna go.

  • Oh my goodness, members of the public carry around phones are going and are going to take a photograph as, as Molly quite rightly says the most recognizable photographed woman in the world, they will have known this was going to happen.

  • Well, given the fact that we're now seeing her running errands alongside her husband, you would think that might put more pressure on the Royals to put her out in a more formal setting.

  • So all the people of the world frankly get a chance to see her right now.

  • When is the sense that that might happen?

  • The initial expectation was right after Easter.

  • Now, it could be later into next month.

  • Is there any better understanding when we will see Kate for real, so to speak?

  • You're absolutely spot on originally when they told us that she was in hospital, she'd be there for a couple of weeks and then she'd be taken, taking some months off.

  • We were told Easter not before Easter.

  • So we all assumed Easter Monday the week after Easter, it, that was then pushed back.

  • The timetable was pushed back to actually when the Children go back to school after their Easter holidays, which is about the 17th of April.

  • I think that there's a very good chance we'll see her on Easter Sunday taking part in the traditional, uh you know, going to church, being photographed, going in and out of church.

  • But of course, she wouldn't say anything that would literally just be photographs.

  • But then we're certainly not going to see her do any official duties till mid April, which I think has slipped by a couple of weeks from what we originally led to believe.

  • Right, Daisy, appreciate you dissecting the video and all of the fallout over it.

  • Pleasure.

  • Most importantly, we hope that Kate as well right at the end of the day, that's the priority.

  • Hey, thanks for watching.
