The Royal Family’s “Other Women”: A Brief History of Affairs | ROYALS

Is Prince William’s Royal Affair actually real – or could it be totally invented by gossip and the media? The press and Internet won’t let rumors of a secret affair between Prince William and Rose Hanbury die (even though there's no concrete evidence.) The history of the Royal Family is full of juicy affairs and beloved mistresses, so the press is highly aware of how magnetically we’re drawn to this story arc of the royal “other woman.” And the Royals are a very carefully managed industry — they have the money and influence to pour cold water on any stories before they gain credibility. So will we ever be able to know the truth? And why does anyone care to begin with?
