Security Alert: “Fears Rise as Hospital Staff Allegedly Attempted to Access Princess Kate’s Private Medical Records”

Hospital bosses are said to be distraught after staff at the London Clinic allegedly tried to look at Princess Kate’s private medical information.

The London Clinic has launched an urgent probe after reports Princess Kate’s patient confidentiality was breached when she underwent planned abdominal surgery there in January.

Hospital bosses are reportedly distraught after an alleged attempt by colleagues to look at the Princess of Wales’s private medical information.

The Mirror reports that at least one member of staff was said to have been caught trying to access the mother of three’s notes while she was a patient there for nearly two weeks earlier this year.

The hospital in Marylebone, central London has a reputation for discreetly treating royals, including King Charles, as well as celebrities and high-ranking politicians.

According to the report, the hospital has already informed Kensington Palace about the security breach and the Princess of Wales is believed to have been made aware of the alleged incident.

“This is a major security breach and incredibly damaging for the hospital, given its unblemished reputation for treating members of the Royal Family.

“Senior hospital bosses contacted Kensington Palace immediately after the incident was brought to their attention and assured the palace there would be a full investigation.

“The whole medical staff have been left utterly shocked and distraught over the allegations and were very hurt that a trusted colleague could have allegedly been responsible for such a breach of trust and ethics.”

A Kensington Palace spokesperson said on the latest claims: “This is a matter for The London Clinic.”

The hospital reportedly did not comment on the alleged incident but told the publication: “We firmly believe that all our patients, no matter their status, deserve total privacy and confidentiality regarding their medical information.”

Princess Kate was admitted to the London Clinic on January 16 for a “planned” and “successful” abdominal surgery, according to Kensington Palace.

Details about the future queen’s condition have not been revealed other than the Palace’s sporadic updates saying she is “recovering well”.

The royal is not expected to resume her royal duties until after Easter.

After being approached by Express.co.uk, the Metropolitan Police did not confirm whether they have been informed about the alleged incident as of Tuesday evening.

Kensington Palace and the London Clinic have been contacted for comment.
