Kate Middleton is in hot water after it was revealed that the picture of her and her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, published on Mother’s Day, was manipulated. Many now call for Kensington Palace to tell the truth about her well-being, and simultaneously, experts come to Kate’s defense. No one from the royal family has spoken out on Kate officially, but now, Harry and Meghan have broken their silence.
It’s well-known that Harry and Meghan don’t have the best relationship with the royal family since leaving in 2019. Moreover, Kate and Meghan were said to have fallen out several times, even on the Duchess’ wedding day, and the frosty relationship has continued ever since.
When Kensington Palace announced Kate’s planned abdominal surgery, Harry and Meghan were quick to send their well-wishes. Meanwhile, as last week’s photo blunder has sparked many conspiracy theories, experts have begun analyzing pictures of Harry and Meghan, particularly their pregnancy snap taken in the US in 2021.
A spokesperson for the Sussexes was also said to have spoken out about Kate and that Meghan would never do such a thing. But now, the statement appears false – and Meghan has officially responded.
For Mother’s Day, Kate Middleton posted a picture 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 didn’t take long before the public’s feelings about the picture shifted, after it turned out that there were plenty of issues with it.
Kate Middleton – manipulated Mother’s Day picture
Social media users began investigating the picture, and it was soon apparent that it had significant issues. Some parts appeared to have been manipulated, including Princess Charlotte’s jumper and Kate Middleton’s right hand, which also missed 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 notification read.
AP also released a statement, saying: “The Associated Press initially published the photo, which was issued by Kensington Palace. The AP later retracted the image because at closer inspection, it appears that the source had manipulated the image in a way that did not meet AP’s photo standards. The photo shows an inconsistency in the alignment of Princess Charlotte’s left hand.”
Royal fans and experts have criticized Kate Middleton. Many are worried that no one is getting information about Kate’s whereabouts or health, and Kensington Palace has yet to issue a new picture, which is quite mysterious.
The conspiracy theories surrounding Kate Middleton are growing larger by the minute. But as Kensington Palace won’t comment on the Princess of Wales’ situation, it’s unsurprising that more theories are appearing.
Royal expert says Kate Middleton has been “thrown under the bus”
While many have called for Kate to speak out, fans and royal experts also suggest that this isn’t Kate’s fault.
Speaking with Palace Confidential, royal expert and author Richard Eden says that the palace has behaved “disgracefully” after letting Kate take the blame by the public, having to issue an apology on her own.
