The royal family is no stranger to gossip, innuendo and controversy.

But this week, the rumours and speculation over the whereabouts and health of Kate Middleton reached new, conspiratorial depths.

Today, royal reporter Ellie Hall on the mistakes made by the Palace, and how the scandal reflects on the people next in line to be our head of state.
