- Andy Cohen is regretting his royal speculations
- He spread some rumors about Kate Middleton's absence
- After her cancer diagnosis he now has some reservations
The 'Watch What Happens Live' host returned to his SiriusXM show, 'Radio Andy', after a week off the air and made it a point to address his jokes about Middleton prior to her reveal that she had been diagnosed with cancer and was undergoing chemotherapy.
Andy has some serious remorse
Among other comments made on Instagram, Cohen had written on X (formerly Twitter) that a reported sighting of Middleton amid rumors of her disappearance was fake. "That ain’t Kate…." his message read.
"I just want to say, I am heartbroken by the news about Princess Kate," Cohen said on Monday’s episode. "And I think someone on Sky News called me a ‘numpty’ during that whole conversation, and they were right."
He continued, "I wish I had kept my mouth shut, and we are all praying for Princess Kate and King Charles. And so, I just had to say that right at the beginning. It’s the first opportunity back in front of a live microphone."
The late night host is one of many celebrities who has taken to social media following the news of Middleton’s cancer diagnosis to express their regrets over adding fuel to conspiracy theories surrounding the princess being missing from the public eye.
The viral conspiracies began shortly after the palace announced that Middleton had been released from the hospital following an unspecified abdominal surgery in January.
They only got worse after the Wales’ Instagram account posted a photo of Kate and her three children, which was obviously altered and led to Middleton sharing an apology and explaining that she likes to experiment with photo editing from time to time.

Stephen Colbert also addressed (but did not apologize for) how he previously mocked the Princess of Wales’ absence from public life, joking that it was because Prince William was having an affair.
"I don’t know whether her prognosis is a tragic one, she’s the future queen of England, and I assume she’s going to get the best possible medical care," he said...
