The name of Rose Hanbury has reappeared in the reporting on the British Royal Family amidst Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis, with Hanbury attending an event with Queen Camilla.
Hanbury is the Marchioness of Cholmondeley and she was at the final day of the Badminton Horse Trials alongside Camilla and the Tindalls during the weekend.
The 40-year-old was wearing a blue suit and shirt at the event in South Gloucestershire.
She is married to David Cholmondeley who is the 7th Marquess of Cholmondeley. She was seen smiling and chatting with various people in the crowds across the day.
The claims about Hanbury
Claims had been made in April 2023 that Hanbury was getting divorced from Count David Cholmondeley after he made a very shocking discovery about his wife.
Hanbury’s name had been in the press for a while after it was reported that Prince William had been having an affair on Kate Middleton with Hanbury. The two women used to be very good friends but they no longer talk for this reason.
An anonymous source close to the royal family has leaked more information about the private life of Hanbury. It was back in 2019 that reports first surfaced suggesting that Hanbury and William had been dating. This was when Middleton was pregnant with their third child.
It is unlikely that any concrete news will ever come from this set of events given the profile of those involved, and nothing has ever been proven.
Naturally, though, Hanbury’s presence at any royal event sparks intrigue and reminds people of the rumors.
