Prince Andrew photo

Apologies for another thread about Prince Andrew but haven’t seen one about this. I would have had him as guilty as the man behind the grassy knoll but seeing this article today I am at least doubting the photo. One of them has been photoshopped but which one? Seeing them side by side the lighting in the photo of Maxwell alone looks more genuine than the one with three.

The hand position is slightly different but the face etc is identical weirdly identical

IamSamantha · 16/02/2022 18:45

The folds in Maxwell's top on her neck and around her waist are the same. Her hands are in a different position. The colours are slightly different and her face angle is very slightly different. It's been taken within seconds of the other picture but unless these aspects of the photo have also been changed it's not the exact same picture.

CorrBlimeyGG · 16/02/2022 18:47

The basis of her assertion is that the women are wearing the same top on two occasions. It may shock Lady Victoria that most of us do wear an item of clothing more than once.

Also, on the version with PA and VG, above his hand is a black border as the white edge on the wall behind GM doesn't extend all the way across to behind VG.

I haven’t been following any of this really and agree re hand position changing

But where has the framed picture gone behind them?

The 'other' photo isn't a photo as far as I can tell. It's a painting someone did depicting the photo that has never been seen publicly.

It's a very confusing story.

Regarding the outfits being the same in the Andrew photo and in the Campbell party photo I don't find that especially strange because poor girls (esp trafficked ones) didn't have much in the way of 'best' clothes back then.

I just graduated in 2001 and didn't have that many clothes. If I had what I thought was a nice outfit I'd wear it to numerous places.

Yes to different right hand position of GM and the picture frame behind PA but cant see the different head position of GM. Also there is something missing or added on GM right lower arm, above VG wrist watch.

Also as I mentioned on first post, the lighting looks more natural with GM alone. In the one with all three PA and VG and the area behind them is very bright so that you can’t see the architrave around door frame that can be seen with the one with only GM.

I don’t get the gold framed pic though?

Why is it missing - is it meant to be different nights

Can only think that it was either added or taken away to help blend whichever one was photoshopped.

The white of the window frame doesn't reach VG's hair either due to the black edge around the right side of her

KitBumbleB · 16/02/2022 19:20

GM herself believed the PA pic to be legit

Danja2010 · 16/02/2022 19:21

Maxwell in an email, confirmed that this photo was real and authentic. Andrews buddy Hervey doesn’t mention this, though.

Didn’t notice that but yes there’s a dark bit between the frame and whatever it is alongside GM arm.

Oh, didn’t realise GM said it was genuine.

That picture frame behind Andrew and Virginia is in one of the photos but not in the other one.

There is also a white box by the window that's also very odd.

OhWhyNot · 16/02/2022 19:36

Oh another article to remind us she once went out with Andrew

The woman is always desperate for attention her acting career has never really come to anything

Owlandthepussycat7 · 16/02/2022 19:36

In the one with Andrew it looks like there's maybe a chair and tables in front of the window that's not there in the ghislaine one alone.

Also her boobs are just weird and flat in the one of her alone. The right side of her body where Virginia is standing in the one of ghislaine alone is again just really flat suggesting something has been edited out

There's also a finger or something in front of the camera on the left of the photo

Chickenpoxtwins · 16/02/2022 19:39

If it's all made up and she's a scam artist, and the whole thing was about to fall apart - why's he paid her millions of quid?

Owlandthepussycat7 · 16/02/2022 19:40

Lioe in the one with Andrew, just above Virginia's arm ghislaines boob starts to curve. In the one of her alone its just oddly straight down where Virginia would be. And this makes what is the shadow of her boobs just a weird grey line. It looks odd. Sorry to focus on the boobs but to me that's what makes it look odd and I spent a while trying to work out what the grey line was

The area that's between Virginia's arm has a lot going on but in the ghislaine one it's just black. It looks like they've just taken out Virginia and andrew

rookiemere · 16/02/2022 19:44

The most suspicious thing is Victoria Hervey being 44. I could have sworn she used to be the same age as me, and now shes 7 years younger.

katienana · 16/02/2022 19:50

I can't decide either way but nothing GM says is credible as we know without a doubt that she was a trafficker so a known liar basically

BaronessEllarawrosaurus · 16/02/2022 20:01

So the evidence of the fact it's a fake is a painting done of a supposed photo that exists but no one appears to have seen.

I do agree the photo with just GM on it looks wrong, she looks wrong, her chest doesn't look right.

Roussette · 16/02/2022 20:06

For those doubting the original photo.. have a read of this
