Kate Middleton is facing a “disturbing surge” in sexual harassment, according to a new report.
The Princess of Wales, who is next in line to be Queen through her marriage to Prince William, is being bombarded with explicit messages and mail. The royal is no stranger to attention, having been subject to public interest since she began a relationship with the Prince in 2001. However, Royal mailing rooms are struggling to cope with escalating “stalker-style” contact directed at Kate.
The Princess of Wales receives some X-rated mail
According to an article by Radar Online, the Princess has been subject to an escalating number of “explicit and hostile letters” as of recent. The messages, characterized as stalker-like, are now said to be a daily occurrence.
Although Kate has spent 25 years in the spotlight, this phenomenon differs from previous harassment. Additionally, there are “concerns” within the firm regarding the “volume and tone” of messages from the public.
“The scale of correspondence Catherine receives is enormous,” a source told the outlet. “While much of it is supportive, there is a deeply troubling subset that is inappropriate, obsessive, or outright disturbing.”
Then, the source claimed that “staff working in the mail rooms are encountering letters that cross boundaries in ways that can only be described as stalker-like.”
The insider explained the nature of the correspondence. The messages are said to be “not just intrusive but explicitly graphic or hostile in tone.” Moreover, “they are coming in almost daily, with some of them flagged immediately and handled under strict security protocols.”
Later, it was explained that a high volume of public engagement correlates with a greater number of such cases. “There has been a noticeable increase in this type of material during periods when Catherine is particularly visible or in the spotlight,” the anonymous person stated.
Subsequently, “The mail rooms can become saturated with letters that are fixated, delusional, or aggressive.” The source added, “it requires constant monitoring to ensure nothing slips through the net.”
