Princess Kate’s uncle Gary Goldsmith entered the Celebrity Big Brother house last night and appeared to divulge where she has been recuperating.
His appearance on the show may become a headache for the Royal Family as he is known for his outspoken views, particularly on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
Talking to the housemates about his niece, the businessman and Carole Middleton’s younger brother said she is in a “nice house somewhere” recovering after her abdominal surgery.
Host AJ Odudu also asked him if Kate was likely to be watching the show, to which he replied: “If she is sitting behind a sofa, yes! It’ll be a nice one in a nice house somewhere, I can guarantee that!”
Mr Goldsmith has previously said the Princess is “the most spectacular person I’ve ever met”.
Kate has not been seen out on public duties this year, as in January Kensington Palace confirmed she had undergone major surgery on her abdomen and would need time to recover.
Although they did not specify the exact nature of her condition, the operation was a success and it is hoped she will be back to work around Easter.
An update issued last week said she was continuing to do well, as it is believed she is convalescing at home in Windsor at Adelaide Cottage.
