Filming her cancer announcement video was hard for Princess Catherine. But apparently not because of the conspiracy theories — it was actually because she’s shy?!
Royal author Sally Bedell Smith praised the Princess of Wales in a new interview with People out on Wednesday. In it, she insisted that Kate Middleton is “inherently shy,” thus making her big announcement video a challenge that she had to overcome. The biographer explained:
Huh… We get that it might’ve been full of pressure given the circumstances, but it’s not like it was a live (or public) address. The filming process was so secretive amid rumors about the 42-year-old’s health and well-being that some royal stans aren’t convinced it was even a real video! So the fact that she’s shy shouldn’t have affected this too much. Right?? Besides, she’s filmed plenty of other content for social media and TV. Heck, it’s a HUGE part of her job. Just saying!!

That said, the Diana in Search of Herself writer praised Prince William‘s wife for handling her time in the spotlight like a pro, adding:
The journalist continued:
The mother of three wrote the speech herself and chose to deliver the message solo because it was a personal matter. And for all the scrutiny she and her family were facing at the time, she definitely handled herself well and kept her composure while getting candid about her difficult health battle. She certainly gets props for that!
Still, the supposed shyness? That’s definitely a surprise to us. She’s one of the most perfectly poised and media-trained people out there in the whole wide world. Ya know?! Thoughts, Perezcious readers? Sound OFF (below)!

, revealed that she is , many expressed that they had joked about her whereabouts. But being sensitive to her privacy doesn't mean we shouldn't still be skeptical where appropriate and always try to separate fact from fabrication. Which is why eagle-eyed viewers noticed that news photo/video source Getty had flagged the video in which Middleton revealed her cancer diagnosis with a warning.…a warning, not a fraud sticker, people! Yes, Getty noted that the video was supplied by the Palace, rather than taken by one of their own hired videographers.
