Kate heartbroken as William spotted having dinner with mistress Rose Hanbury Amid cheating rumours
As you most likely are aware, the Prince hosted the Trump organization at Buckingham Palace the previous evening, following a day of joint English and American activities.
Prince William and Katherine were there as well. Welcome viewers to my channel.
There was another guest present, however, with connections to House Cambridge—or rather, disavowed—who everybody is discussing.

That would be Rose Hanbury, the Marchioness of Cholmondeley. She is right here, making her entry basically toward the far end. Rose is married to David Cholmondeley, the Marquess of Cholmondeley, who is also the Lord Great Chamberlain. These people and their titles are why they were there, as the Lord Great Chamberlain is expected at state events.
Did you know that before he took over as the Marquess, David was known as David Rocksavage? I suppose that’s the trade-off for the title and all the money and influence: you have to give up your cooler name and take on the significant but less impressive-sounding title. That’s how Cholmondeley is pronounced, by the way.
As we know, Kate and Rose hung out among the “turnip toffs” in Norfolk and were known to be close until sometime last year when they reportedly had a falling out. The Sun broke the story in March, and we’ve been discussing it ever since, although information about what exactly caused their split has been scarce, leading to all kinds of wild speculation. Was it because Kate’s garden was superior to Rose’s? Was it because Rose took Kate’s nanny? Was it an affair? It’s the “Big Little Lies” of the English countryside.
Evidently, there was no interaction between Kate and Rose last night. I hear they sat across from each other and would have been in each other’s direct eyeline. Thus, following a few weeks of quiet with the Cambridges hoping this interest would die down, all of us are pondering again about the end of their friendship and why.
The woman walking in next to Rose looks like Sarah Vine, a reporter for the Daily Mail. Assuming it is indeed Sarah Vine, here’s an example of some of the articles that Sarah Vine has written for the Daily Mail. The word choice in the title of her articles is quite deliberate, as you might expect. For instance, Sarah Vine wrote a reasonably kind article about Meghan Markle last month after she and Harry introduced Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor to the world. However, she was criticized back in 2015 for being nasty and cruel about Princess Kate’s appearance when she was photographed out shopping just before Christmas. And generally speaking, where the Daily Mail is concerned, it’s no secret how gross their coverage can be.
Curiously, Princess Kate’s former BFF is now entering the state banquet with someone who appears to be one of the Daily Mail’s regular contributors. Coincidence or something more?
