During his exit interview on ITV's 'Celebrity Big Brother,' Kate Middleton's uncle Gary Goldsmith expressed regret over the negative public perception of him, particularly being labeled a 'bad uncle.' Goldsmith acknowledged the hurt caused by such labels and stated his desire to change public opinions, which was his motivation for appearing on the reality show.
Goldsmith, Carole Middleton's brother, mentioned that participating in the show provided him with a unique opportunity to gain insight into the world of celebrity. He admitted to occasionally referencing his royal connections during his time on the show.
Recently, Goldsmith made a cryptic comment regarding Kate Middleton's whereabouts following her abdominal surgery, citing a 'code of etiquette' that prevented him from providing specific details. However, he assured his fellow contestants that Kate was receiving top-notch care and would eventually return to the public eye.
Despite his efforts to address concerns and offer reassurance, Goldsmith faced criticism for his loose-lipped nature and past legal troubles. In 2017, he was arrested for allegedly assaulting his ex-wife during an argument, and in 2009, he was reportedly found in possession of cocaine.
Goldsmith's time on 'Celebrity Big Brother' came to an end as he was eliminated from the show, limiting his platform for discussing his famous niece. Fans of the royal family had been speculating about Kate's well-being during her absence from public view, but recent sightings have put those concerns to rest.
