Gary Goldsmith, Carole Middleton’s brother, said she was receiving the “best care in the world” on Wednesday’s edition of Celebrity Big Brother.
The Princess of Wales’s uncle, who is currently appearing on ITV’s Celebrity Big Brother, has said she is getting the “best care in the world”.
But Gary Goldsmith declined to talk further about Kate’s health due to a “code of etiquette”.
There has been huge speculation on social media about the princess’s health after she underwent abdominal surgery earlier this year and has been absent from royal duties.
Love Island winner Ekin-Su Culculoglu asked Goldsmith in footage shown on Wednesday’s edition of the show: “Where’s Kate?”
He replied: “Because she doesn’t want to talk about… The last thing I’m going to do is… there’s a kind of code of etiquette. If it’s announced, I’ll give you an opinion.”
“And all the family’s done is put the wagons round and look after family first before anything else. They put a statement out and just said ‘she’s taking some time to recoup and will see you in Easter’.”
