As you know, there’s been a bunch of jokes and memes about Kate’s whereabouts lately, as she’s barely been seen since undergoing abdominal surgery in January.

While Kensington Palace has insisted she’s okay and “making good progress,” speculation (and jokes) about her health increased after Kate shared a terribly edited photo of herself last week.

Experts found that there were over a dozen editing mistakes in the photo, which was ultimately pulled from several photo agency libraries amid manipulation concerns.
So, yesterday, as the speculation about Kate continued, Kim posted a photo outside of her car, saying she was going to “find” her.
