Former England cricket star Kevin Pietersen has blasted the “absolutely absurd” conspiracy theories about the Princess of Wales and claimed he sees her and Prince William on “most days”.

Princess Kate has been recovering from abdominal surgery since January although recently, she has been at the centre of controversy after public worry over her whereabouts and health skyrocketed.

But the future queen was seen on video, published by the Sun, while out and about with William in Windsor on Saturday. Kate looked happy and well while carrying shopping bags with her husband.

However, despite the latest footage, wild conspiracy theories were still circulating on social media.

Pietersen, who lives with his wife Jessica close to where William and Kate were spotted on Saturday, took to social media to hit back at the “ridiculous and cruel” people who write up “wild” theories about the “humble” royals.

He wrote on X: “The conspiracy theories around Kate are absolutely absurd! We see Will & Kate most days and in the last couple days too!

Pietersen urged people “leave her and her beautiful family alone”.

He added: “Let Kate who is recovering from an operation recover. Leave her and her beautiful family alone!!!!”

The former cricket star also tagged Kensington Palace in the tweet.

It comes as Express.co.uk revealed the Princess of Wales has found an unlikely recovery companion in the guise of Pietersen’s wife and former Liberty X singer Jessica.
