Rumors of an affair could rock any relationship—especially if these were put on blast in international publications.

The British royal family has remained mum on reports in March and April that Prince William had an affair with Rose Hanbury, the Marchioness of Cholmondeley. Behind the scenes, the rumors have had an impact on William and Kate Middleton, as per Us Weekly on Wednesday, June 12.

“It forced her and William to sit back and examine their relationship, which they realized they should have been doing more often,” a friend to the Middleton family told the entertainment magazine.

The same source said the Duchess of Cambridge felt hurt by the rumors and “hates the thought that one day her children will be able to read about them online.”

The future king and queen have three children: Prince George, 5; Princess Charlotte, 4; and Prince Louis, 1.

Another source said the couple is “determined to pull through it and are doing a great job at getting their marriage back on track again.”

“They’re still going strong. Regardless of their ups and downs, they love each other dearly and their kids are the most important thing in their lives,” the second insider said.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge wed in April 2011. They met while studying at the University of St. Andrews and began dating in 2001.  Niña V. Guno /ra
