Kate Middleton is in hot water after it was revealed that a Mother’s Day photo of her and her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, was doctored. Many are now calling for Kensington Palace to tell the truth about her well-being, while experts are coming to Kate’s defense. No one from the royal family has officially spoken about Kate, but now Harry and Meghan have broken their silence.
It is known that Harry and Meghan do not have the best relationship with the royal family since leaving in 2019. In addition, Kate and Meghan were said to have fallen out several times, including on the Duchess’s wedding day, and the relationship froze. has continued ever since.
When Kensington Palace announced Kate’s planned tummy tuck, Harry and Meghan were quick to send their best wishes. Meanwhile, after last week’s photo blunder sparked many conspiracy theories, experts have begun analyzing photos of Harry and Meghan, particularly their pregnancy photos taken in the US in 2021.
A spokesman for the Sussexes was also said to have spoken about Kate and that Meghan would never do such a thing. But now, the statement appears to be false – and Meghan has officially responded.
For Mother’s Day, Kate Middleton posted a photo of herself, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Louis on the Prince and Princess of Wales’ official Instagram, wishing everyone a happy Mother’s Day.
Fans were overjoyed to see Kate doing well. But it wasn’t long before the public’s feelings about the picture shifted, as it turned out that there were a lot of problems with it.
Kate Middleton – photo manipulation for Mother’s Day
Social media users began to investigate the photo and it soon became clear that it had significant issues. Several pieces appeared to have been tampered with, including Princess Charlotte’s jumper and Kate Middleton’s right hand, which also lost a wedding ring.
News agencies, including the Associated Press and Getty, issued a “kill notice,” an advisory notice to remove or not use a specific photo.
“It appears that the source has manipulated the image,” the Associated Press release said.
The AP also released a statement, saying: “The Associated Press originally published the photo, which was released by Kensington Palace. The AP later retracted the image because upon closer inspection, it appeared the source had manipulated the image in a way that did not meet standards of AP photos. The photo shows a discrepancy in the extension of Princess Charlotte’s left hand.”
Royal fans and experts have criticized Kate Middleton. Many are concerned that no one is getting information about Kate’s whereabouts or health, and Kensington Palace has yet to release a new photo, which is rather mysterious.
The conspiracy theories surrounding Kate Middleton are growing by the minute. But since Kensington Palace won’t comment on the Princess of Wales’ situation, it’s no surprise that more theories are emerging.
Royal expert says Kate Middleton has been ‘thrown under the bus’
While many have called for Kate to speak out, royal fans and experts also suggest that this is not Kate’s fault.
Speaking to Palace Confidential, royal expert and author Richard Eden says the palace has behaved “shamefully” by letting Kate take the blame from the public, apologizing herself.
“I’m very sad and kind of frustrated about the whole thing because I feel so sorry for Catherine,” Eden said. “Basically, she’s been under a lot of pressure from people saying, ‘We want a picture, we want to know what she looks like, tell us what she looks like.’ And she finally comes out with this picture, it’s taken by Prince William.
