英國的威廉王子和凱特王妃，一直都是大家非常看好的兩口子。
2011年，兩人在威斯敏斯特大教堂舉辦了童話般的盛大婚禮，吸引了全世界的關注。
而結婚8年以來，這對兒都沒鬧過什麼緋聞，堪稱“模範夫妻”。
夫妻倆出行時，也常被拍到一臉甜蜜開心的笑容。
去年凱特生下了三兒子路易小王子，一家五口其樂融融的同框照，看著就讓人羨慕。
然而，這兩天，有條新聞卻讓大家驚掉了下巴……什麼？威廉王子和凱特鬧婚變？？
評論區網友一片唏噓，感嘆“這難道是要步了他爹查爾斯的後塵？”
到底咋回事？原來，先是上週美國一家八卦雜誌In Touch爆了料：
《威廉王子出軌了，跟凱特王妃的閨蜜！》
小標題也秉承八卦雜誌的一貫畫風：“威廉出軌時，凱特王妃正懷著孕”……
這篇報道里寫到，就在凱特王妃正懷著第三個孩子的期間，威廉王子出軌了他們的貴族鄰居——喬蒙德利侯爵夫人Rose Hanbury。
In Touch magazine has become the first mainstream outlet to publish a sensational rumor that has electrified British high society for almost a year: that Prince William may have had an affair with his aristocratic neighbor Rose Hanbury, also known as the Marchioness of Cholmondeley, while Kate Middleton was pregnant with their third child.
這位Rose以前是個模特，後來嫁給了第七任喬蒙德利侯爵David Rocksavage，因此就成為了侯爵夫人。
Rose Hanbury is a former model who is married to film director and actor David Rocksavage, who is the 7th Marquess of Cholmondeley.
侯爵夫妻倆跟威廉凱特是好友，兩家住得很近。Rose還參加了威廉王子和凱特的婚禮，四人也常聚會。
The couple live in Norfolk, just a few miles away from William and Kate's home at Sandringham. As such, she was also a friend of William and Kate.
Rose attended the royal couple's wedding and, together with husband David, the four have gone on several double dates.
該雜誌還爆料說，當聽到傳言後，凱特王妃“立即質問”了威廉王子，而威廉王子卻“只是一笑否認，說完全沒這回事兒”。
In Touch quotes a source saying that after hearing the rumors herself, Kate “immediately confronted” William, who “just laughed it off saying there was nothing to it.”
凱特王妃很生氣，甚至要求威廉以後斷絕跟侯爵夫婦的來往。
In Touch claims that despite William’s denials, Kate ordered William to stop socializing with the Cholmondeleys.
雜誌還稱有知情者說：“威廉凱特看起來就像完美的一對兒，不會出這種問題。然而現實是，大多數夫妻都會有問題，威廉和凱特也難逃一劫。”
“They come across as a perfect couple who can do no wrong,” an "insider’" tells In Touch. “But the reality is, most couples have their issues and William and Kate are no different.”
“威廉和Rose的傳聞最終被洩露不足為奇，像這樣大的事不可能永遠是秘密。”知情人這樣認為，還補充說這個考驗是‘凱特最大的噩夢’。”
“It’s not surprising the rumors about William and Rose finally leaked to the public - something as big as this can’t be kept a secret forever,” says the insider, addition that the whole ordeal is “Kate’s worst nightmare.”
威廉出軌Rose的緋聞一出，就有媒體報道威廉王子請了律師要告這家雜誌。

據Daily Beast網報道，肯辛頓宮官方並沒有做出回應。但是有侍臣表示這樣的報道“完全是虛假不實”的謠言。
他們還指出這家雜誌以前就老寫八卦顛倒黑白，比如“奧巴馬有外遇，或者小甜甜布蘭妮懷了三胞胎”，語不驚人死不休……
Kensington Palace would not comment on the record to The Daily Beast about the In Touch story, but courtiers said the story “was totally wrong and false,” and sought to pour cold water on In Touch’s credibility, saying it had previously published stories that “Obama was having an affair and Britney was having triplets.”
不過，為了阻止謠言，威廉王子的律師則已經採取了法律措施。至少有一家刊物收到了律師函，警告他們要承擔法律責任，並表示報道“完全是謠言且極為惡劣”。
Prince William’s lawyers have already taken legal actions to stop this scandal. At least one publication reportedly received a legal warning for issuing details about the rumors which are “false and highly damaging.”
不過，流言也沒那麼好遏制，總是一波接一波……
這周，威廉凱特又上了一家美國刊物《Globe》的封面。
這大標題的“震驚”程度也不相上下：《威廉和凱特開始離婚談判了！》
《Globe》雜誌稱，在威廉王子被曝出軌鄰居兼好友Rose Hanbury的緋聞後，威廉和凱特夫婦已經開始在找離婚律師約談了……
This week, Globe published a report claiming that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are in divorce talks amid the cheating rumors involving Prince William and their neighbor and friend Rose Hanbury.
雖然目前王室還沒對這條八卦做出回應，但據外媒報道，當地時間4月12日威廉王子和凱特還帶著喬治小王子和夏洛特公主一起去看賽馬，一家子看起來其樂融融，並未受到緋聞的影響。
Prince William and Middleton were last seen together with their kids Prince George and Princess Charlotte and the Tindalls. The couple appeared in good spirits despite the rumors and were visibly having a good time.
在4月21日，威廉凱特還出席了女王93歲大壽在教堂舉辦的慶祝活動，照片裡夫妻倆看著也有說有笑的。
很多國外“吃瓜群眾”也表示不相信威廉王子出軌的緋聞。他們覺得，威廉與凱特一起看起來很幸福。一位網友還提出，威廉在凱特王妃身邊時總是笑呵呵的，跟其他人一起時就沒有……
A number of netizens also don’t believe the rumors because they notice that Prince William is much happier when he is with Middleton. One online user claimed that the Duke of Cambridge has a cheeky smile that she never sees when Prince William with other people including Prince Harry except when Middleton is around.
當然，也有網友願意吃“出軌”的瓜……
“威廉王子這是要步他爹的後塵，揹著老婆搞外遇！真是偉大的家族傳統啊！”
想必大家也都知道，查爾斯王子和戴安娜王妃的那段不幸的婚姻。
（關於戴安娜王妃的悲劇，此前英國第四頻道出了一部紀錄片《戴安娜：她的自述》Diana: In Her Own Words，大家戳這裡觀看。）
“別忘了Rose Hunbury也跟威廉王子一起出席了他的第一次王室宴會。她跟王室很親近，如果威廉真的出軌，我一點兒都不驚訝。”
但另一位網友則反駁說：“不可能。威廉王子很聰明不會出軌的。他對婚姻生活很滿足，跟凱特和孩子們也過著很普通的生活。”……
總之，八卦緋聞總是不消停，但沒有實錘，我們就不該亂傳啊。
