When it comes to the royal family, rumors are practically part of the job description. From whispers about personal relationships to speculation over seemingly minor details, the public is always watching—and guessing. But when it comes to the royals actually addressing those rumors? That’s a much rarer event. Official statements are few and far between and, more often than not, the palace prefers to stay silent.
Sometimes, though, the royal family appears to respond in subtler, more low-key ways—like a carefully timed photo or a casual social media post. That seems to be exactly what Kate Middleton did with her most recent Instagram upload.
In case you missed it, April 11 marked National Pet Day, and to celebrate, the Princess of Wales shared a sweet snapshot of the family’s black cocker spaniel, Orla. The photo, taken outdoors, shows Orla’s sleek black coat standing out beautifully against a backdrop of rich, forest greenery.
