Why is it that whenever a Royal does something in secret we all know about it?

Question

It started with Saint Diana and her secret (well photographed) visits to hospitals and now her kids are up to it.

Answer 1

The Queen doesn't wipe her own bum.

Answer 2

What makes you think that you do? We keep really secret things totally secret by diverting the public's attention to things that are not secret at all.

It's simple. People love to gossip, especially about the personal or private affairs of others. Everyone is fascinated with the British royal family, and it is impossible for them to do something, without anybody knowing. Fanatic fans and obsessed paparazzi will follow them, literally, everywhere they go.

French paparazzi were camping outside Diana's residence or hiding in a little corner waiting for her car to come out, and follow her. With cell phones and the Internet these days, it doesn't take long before the entire world knows about something within seconds.

The British royals may think they were doing something "in secret" or trying not to reveal much, however, we all know what the paparazzi are capable of, that's what they do for a living! They actually make a full time career stalking others.

Answer 4

Well it was sensible to keep Williams visit secret for security reasons...but it is a bit cynical to have a flight to see the troops, which is good, after a flight to a stag do and to see his girlfriend which is bad.....they didn't publicise the stag do did they?

Answer 5

They all have a bet as to who gets the most column inches in the Daily Express (Diana still well out in front)

Answer 6

Because today's trivia-obsessed general public lap up absolutely anything to do with "celebrity", so the papparazzi will do absolutely anything to feed their insatiable appetite.

Answer 7

Because nothing is really secret, it's just that, when you or me goes to the hospital, nobody cares. In this technological information age, how can there not be a record of pretty much everything?

Answer 8

Because gimboid photojournalists think that we want to know and obviously: enough of us do want to know to make it worth their while.

Don't read it and eventually those gimboid paparazzis will eventually starve to death.

Answer 9

How dare you criticise your betters you common little man !
