PRINCESS KATE looked immaculate when she left the Lindo Wing on Saturday, having just given birth to Britain's youngest princess.

Perhaps she didn't really give birth after all. Wait… what? The Russian media is peddling a bizarre conspiracy theory that because the Duchess of Cambridge looked so good after giving birth it means either the baby was born days earlier or was actually birthed by a surrogate. Russian newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda printed the claims in an article headlined: "All mothers in shock: How did Kate Middleton manage to look so good just hours after giving birth?" It quoted various women comparing Princess Kate's birth to their own.

“It was a surrogate mother who gave birth – not her. Kate must have been wearing a fake belly to show that she was pregnant.” Russian woman One woman said: "If she really gave birth naturally it was surely some days ago." Another added: "She gave birth three days ago. They reported it only now. Look at the baby – she does not look like a newborn at all. "She is at least three days old. There is nothing which would help a woman, even if she gave birth with the help of the best doctors, stand up five hours after giving birth and leave the clinic on her feet." And one woman even believed that Kate had not given birth to the new princess herself. She said: "It was a surrogate mother who gave birth – not her. Kate must have been wearing a fake belly to show that she was pregnant. "It is just not real to walk by yourself several hours after birth and wave to the public in a white dress. "If you ever gave birth, try to recall yourself three or four hours later. "Even if the birth is easy women just want to sleep and sleep for several hours. This is a fairy tale of a family of show offs."
