Kate's photo appears "manipulated"?

[Tulipsandpansies123]

Have just seen news saying that associated press have withdrawn photo as it appears "manipulated". V strange

Maybe the driver’s asking, “Are we good to the left?”.

😂

I imagine she is turning her head so she isn't papped with a swollen face.i also think it's very possible she might be feeling low after major surgery, and pissed off that she has been pushed into showing she is not in a coma and not fallen out wit PW

This family have successfully released appropriate photos for numerous occasions without anything or anyone looking out of place - so for this photo to be deemed acceptable, from the manipulation to the finger crossing, and for people to say oh the kids probably didn't all smile in the same photo, is ridiculous!

Actually there were suggestions their 2023 Christmas card had some dodgy photoshopping as well. There was also a photo of the queen and prince Phillip that people said had been edited, as well as the picture of the queen and all her great grandchildren which has a line down it very similar to the horizontal line on her jumper in Kate's Mother's Day picture.
I imagine W&K were hoping this one would be like the others - where the photoshop was commented on a bit online but didn't cause much of an issue or make much news, and was then forgotten.

God, can you imagine if they'd been this hysteria over a doctored snap of Harry. Everyone would be a racist, a hater, a xenophobe, a bully. Yet W&K just have to take it.

Ive no idea what folk think they are hiding, she had an op 8weeks ago, they told us that! They told us she'd be recuperating until Easter, so that's no surprise. They release a pic for Mother's Day and omg the kids fingers are wrong, her zip is wrong, the tree is wrong

Misses point

'Misses point'

There isn't a point, there is mass hysteria and outrage over a photoshopped pic. The 'news agencies' need to get a grip as do all those horrified over zips and fingers.

Gwan then tell us what she had done!

The point has been posted repeatedly all day on this thread and many others.

The photo was a lie. I'm sympathetic as to what they likely lied about and why, but it was a lie.

FMLWTF How dare you. I wash my bedsheets every day.

Agree with ridiculous over investment of which we are both a part.

But I'm pleased news agencies draw a line in the sand about how far photos can be manipulated.

The issue isn't about a tree or a zip.

@Janiie

They should not 'manipulate ' anything , the idea that their lives are not good enough they have to present to us the idea that everything that surrounds them is bloody perfect . Jeez Victoria would have had a field day with this sort of technology .

Agree. I think both William and Harry are the same. They want the glory but don't want any press scrutiny in return. William has had that for a long time because of Harry. Now he's getting it in spades.

All of this.

Leave the lass alone for heaven's sake.

Well yes. An official event where a president is swapped for someone else, or say recreating a fake meeting, malicious intent to mislead all these things would be relevant to call out. Fingers, zips and plants not so much.

I clearly need to apply for a job advising these hot-headed news agency folk.

It probably doesn't rely on a judgement so as to avoid human prejudice.

Most likely a percentage.

it's good news for clarity and transparency.

Don't think you're an ideal candidate @Janiie
😁

Will had said he rather not do it. They want a private life then he should abdicate of course he won't.

The whole modernisation has been a disaster. They should of let H&M be half in and out and making their own loony, why not that's quite modern for RF. Instead of leeching off taxpayers to be able to earn their own money even if it's off the back of the RF titles. Titles they just give themselves so who cares if they monetise it.

W&K coukd of done the same if they wanted to or at least with his brother still involved had them out and about more ro provide some additional cover while they stepped back due to her recovering.

This all came about because there slimmed down monarchy idea and both C & C having health issues at the same time, perfect storm that just shone a massive light and made people question the existence if the monarchy

The press are renowned for misleading the public especially if it fills their coffers.

She could have been left in (relative) peace and quiet. But they chose to release a heavily doctored image of her that would obviously create a media storm instead. They should have done what they said they would and stuck to saying kate wouldn’t appear in public until after Easter.

We shall see.

FMLWTF Hilary Mantel's article was so perceptive, and she got such shit thrown at her for it.
