Kate Middleton and Prince William’s casual outing over the weekend could have been “purposefully arranged” by palace officials, according to a royal expert.
The Princess of Wales, 42, was seen looking “happy, healthy and relaxed” as she joined William for a quick visit to a farm shop in Windsor.
Palace sources have since told The Post that the princess’s sighting should be enough to quell ongoing conspiracy rumors about the royal, but the ordeal seems to have sparked more confusion over her well-being.

“I’ve seen the video of Kate and William — part of me is wondering if this has been purposefully arranged,” King Charles’ former butler Grant Harrold exclusively told The Post.
“It seems quite strange that all of a sudden she is out and about, so I’d have guessed this is some kind of exercise to stop the public worrying about Kate.”
“It shows that she’s doing well, she’s happy, laughing and joking with William, so it seems like an attempt to calm everybody down, regardless of what may or may not be true,” added Harrold, who worked for Charles for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales.
Video footage and images of the royal obtained by the Sun emerged Monday and showed the mom of three looking well as she and the Prince of Wales, 41, bought some fresh produce during the outing.
While Kensington Palace has not yet commented on the footage, royal sources tell The Post that the sighting should provide enough comfort to quash ongoing conspiracy theories once and for all.
