Kate: Archbishop hits 'obsession out at our with conspiracies'

Kate's absence from public life after she underwent abdominal surgery in January has led to conspiracy theories on social media about her whereabouts and health. Speaking on Times Radio, Archbishop Justin Welby insisted "gossiping in that way is wrong".

He was asked not specifically to comment on Kate, but about whether he was worried that compassion in society was being replaced by "conspiracy" given the claims about her health. He said: "We are obsessed with conspiracy and we have little sense of the humanity of those who are caught in the glare of the news. It does not matter who it is, people should be allowed to be ill, have an operation, whatever it is, and to live their lives in peace without everyone demanding that they prove something every other day."
