The Voicenote

Episode 17: Kate Middleton, Duchess of Adobe

Season 2, Ep. 17

It's the biggest royal conspiracy in over 20 years and we would be lying if we said it hadn't consumed our every waking minute.


Following Kate Middleton's apology for posting an edited photo on Mother's Day, the speculation as to where Kate is continues to twist, turn, grow legs and has been running through our minds for WEEKS.


Pádraig and Shannon take you through the timeline events that have lead us to this point as well as some of the conspracies that surround the Princess.


They deep dived, so you don't have to!
