Investigation into ICO Involving Kate Middleton’s Medical Records
Kate Middleton is currently under investigation for an alleged security breach.
Reports from British tabloid The Mirror suggest that employees at the London Clinic, where Kate recently had surgery, may have tried to access her medical records. This has led to the UK’s data protection watchdog looking into the incident.
The Information Commissioner’s Office confirmed to E! News on March 20 that they are investigating the breach report and evaluating the information provided.
Al Russell, CEO of the prestigious hospital, stated to NBC News that all staff members at The London Clinic understand their responsibility to maintain patient confidentiality.
He also mentioned that an internal investigation will be conducted, and necessary actions will be taken if any breaches are found. “We do not tolerate any betrayal of trust towards our patients or colleagues,” Russell added.
