except it would have been reported if only to quash the wild theories - somebody would have said something it’s just insanity to think they wouldn’t have. There is no way the media would have been so on board with the “where is Kate” stories if she was just pottering around her local shops minding her own businessIn Eton, Windsor etc you see the royals a lot, and no one stands around openly gawping at them. There's no reason to think she hasn't been out locally prior to this without it being reported.
