She does look a bit different. But at least she's out and about.

I think they may have also for the first 1-2 seconds of the video (when the woman’s entire body is behind the car) cleverly used AI to transpose her face. So for a fleeting second it looks like her - but then she emerges from the car and it’s obviously a different person entirely, facially but also the gait etc.

RamblingAroundTheInternet · 18/03/2024 23:09

Yes, that is NOT Kate @canttellyouwhereorwhatido! How blind can people be. Truth in you see what you want to see!

Kind of ironic the media are printing this article with the furore over the photoshopped pic and the press making the point that they were misled and it wasn’t authentic!

The Sun is having a laugh and there will be a swift retraction soon.

This has got to be a lookalike couple (of which there are a few from googling) using the opportunity to make some cash.

‘William’s’ teeth/mouth area looks odd too as if he’s got jaw definer/dentures in too if you look closely.

Glitterybee · 18/03/2024 23:10

I can’t believe people think this is William & Kate 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I’ve seen better lookalikes on this morning

I think we’re just used to seeing her with a face full of makeup and designer clothes. People can look really different when natural. And if she’s been unwell then I wouldn’t expect her to look like she always did.

This ^

It's easier to judge from the video rather than this pic. Catherine has the same gait she's always had, possibly taking shorter steps, consistent with recovering from abdominal surgery.

mollyfolk · 18/03/2024 23:12

After seeing that close up I’m not sure it’s her either! Curiouser and curiouser. Also does she look a bit taller here than usual. He’s another snap of her in flats https://images.app.goo.gl/V2NAFZY3P1CB1Hqk6

But she's not taking short steps at all in the video! She's practically sprinting?

WisteriaLodge · 18/03/2024 23:13

It's funny how posters are saying that you can see it obviously not them and yet moan about the dreadful quality of the photo, can't have it both ways

JanglingJack · 18/03/2024 23:15

I've had another look and I'm one that has been drawn in, and I'm not a royalist...
But...

If someone showed you a picture of that woman, would you recognise her?

I couldn't. It's not her.

Maddy70 · 18/03/2024 23:16

Ellaelle · 18/03/2024 20:42

Lol that's not her! Looks nothing like her unless she had plastic surgery and changed her face

Agreed

ThisGreyPoster · 18/03/2024 23:16

This is like all UFO footage. In spite of most people carrying quality cameras on their phones with good clarity and a zoom facility, every photo and video so far so poor quality, from a distance and/or blurry.

Same as JanglingJack, that's the litmus test for me here. If someone had showed me that photo and asked me who it was, I'd never had guessed Kate.

The close up posted upthread?

That's not a close up, it's an AI tool used to unblur an image. Which, unsurprisingly as it's AI, may not resemble what the unblurred image would actually look like.

I've no idea whether it's her or not, but a blurry image unblurred by AI doesn't show anything either way.

Ah right, thanks for that. I'll go back to being on the fence then Grin

FrancisSeaton · 18/03/2024 23:22

I think it's quite hilarious now how every thing the press have posted to convince everyone Kate is absolutely fine has done the exact opposite 🙈

JanglingJack · 18/03/2024 23:23

WisteriaLodge · 18/03/2024 22:42

also - it’s not been commented on by KP to say it was them. Why would the sun release an article and then later on a video? If W and K did it for press then they can do better than this drop feed- do we really think they rang the sun and did an exclusive with them and this is how they decided it was best to do it? A grainy video?

Because it was taken by some random in the car park who sold it to the Sun... the photos are stills of the video, easy peasy and the Palace have confirmed it was them.

It's a shame that they'd had their phone since 1998.

WAIGD · 18/03/2024 23:24

For the people who think it’s because she’s lost weight - most women in their 40s (me included) usually look older if they drop weight in the face rather than younger. Also the woman in the video doesn’t look ill and gaunt like she’s recovering from illness, she looks like a very healthy 20-something, to me anyway!

Quite. Who'd have thunk that dodgy photo collages, grainy photos of the back of a head, and grainy video footage from a farm shop wouldn't be completely convincing?

WisteriaLodge · 18/03/2024 23:26

Come back Harry and stop the press madness, all is forgiven.

No Thanks!!!!

The Sun didn't print this to reassure us Kate was fine! They did it for clicks, to troll the royal family and the public

I was thinking it's similar to all these big cat sightings where there is never anything around where you can measure the height and length and always, always blurry 😂

Yarboosucks · 18/03/2024 23:29

I think The Scum Sun hired a cheap pair of lookalikes to create a headline and grab some attention for themselves.

JPGR · 18/03/2024 23:31

You are all fricking batshit mad. Of course it’s them. From all the spiteful conspiracy theories they have been forced to show themselves. The Windsor farm shop is yards from where they live. A natural choice to appear to stop all the ugly rumours.

The press aren't trying to convince people of that.

They pulled the Mother's Day picture.

And The Sun (and similar) would hate for everyone to think she's fine and lose interest in the story! They'd lose all the clicks.
