Kate Middleton ‘needed’ farm visit to be seen after ‘significant c–k-up’ with edited photo

Headbangers are a headache.

Kate Middleton and Prince William have had enough with the conspiracy theories surrounding her recovery from abdominal surgery.

The Duchess of Cambridge, 42, has mainly been staying out of the public eye following the January operation, even though wild rumors about her whereabouts have swirled around the internet.

On March 18, Middleton and William, were spotted hanging out at a farm shop in Windsor — a move that Kensington Palace believed would put an end to the theories.

According to the Daily Beast, the Princess of Wales was desperate to be seen at the farmer’s market — especially after her disastrous Mother’s Day photo fiasco.

A source told the outlet that her appearance at the shop was “the right move, because ultimately she is fine and she needed that to be seen.”

The Sun obtained footage of the couple out over the weekend, with some fans believing the video was doctored and that the woman in the clip was not Middleton.

“There’s nothing you can do these days about a bunch of headbangers who have a vested interest in keeping the conspiracies going,” the source said.

Royal expert Grant Harrold divulged to the Post on Thursday that Middleton’s farm outing could have been “purposefully arranged” by palace officials.

“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,” he said.

A separate insider noted to the Daily Beast that William, 41, and Middleton “have decades and decades of this life ahead of them,” and they hope to continue to secure and guard “their privacy.”

“When you look back at 2024 in a few years, you won’t even be able to see this, apart, maybe, from the Mother’s Day photo, which was, admittedly, a significant c–k-up,” the source stated.

The image was released on March 10 and featured Middleton surrounded by her children, Prince George, 10, Prince Louis, 5, and Princess Charlotte, 8.

The snap was quickly pulled from photo agencies after a medley of Photoshop mistakes were pointed out.
