Kate Middleton | HR probe underway as hospital staff accused of snooping on Princess of Wales' medical records

An HR probe is underway at the prestigious private hospital that treats members of the Royal family, amid claims that members of staff tried to access the Princess of Wales’s private medical data.

According to the Daily Mail, three employees at the London Clinic are being investigated by management, and are reported to have been suspended.

The hospital’s chief executive has also vowed to take all necessary steps against anyone found guilty of snooping on medical records.

Britain's data watchdog had confirmed just days ago that it was looking into a report that staff at the hospital, where Kate Middleton underwent abdominal surgery in January, had attempted to access her private health records.
