Photo of Kate Middleton at the Farm Shop

[penjil]

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

I really don't know if its her or not, but I assume it is as that's the most balanced option. However, as she is clearly looking quite spritely in that video and full of beans I would expect that from now on she starts being seen out and about much more.

If she doesn't attend church at Easter or isn't seen in public again for weeks/months then that is going to look really odd IMO

Sky News is reporting they've just had an expert run the video through facial recognition and confirmed it's definitely Kate.

He doesn't work for Lego any more.

Also, when he did work for Lego, he was head of their online and digital marketing.

Hmmm.....

What is the actual lie we're supposedly being fed?

I really can't see the face lift rumours being true - I like to think she would have more self respect. But then I think anyone who has a facelift etc needs to have a serious word with themselves 😂

They must be basing that "popularity" on Google searches and Twitter trending.....

Did you actually type that with a straight face? Of course they're a minority in the UK

Where have you been for the past 3 weeks?!?

I suspect that won't stop the speculation though as already I've read that yes, it is Kate, but it's old footage etc etc

It was this YouGov poll.

Oh I've read plenty. But I'm curious to know what you, as the OP of this thread, thinks it is exactly. You seem so sure of the lie, I'm sure you can sum it up succinctly.

It has been shown before that YouGov had suppressed polls, selected population samples, and slanted questions to get pre-determined results. Their credibility has been called into questions multiple times.

This just recently: https://uk.news.yahoo.com/john-curtices-polling-council-responds-143426997.html It’s naive not to consider them propaganda mercenaries nowadays.

I don’t think anyone on here is hounding Kate - any more than any other person who clicks on tabloid news links. The very strange thing is the Royal Family is effectively hounding themselves with their Amateur Phoney Photos 101 approach.

The population have been groomed for years into taking an interest in the Royal Family, from wall-to-Walk BBC coverage of weddings, births, funerals and Colour Troopings, to Hello magazine. Meanwhile, there was a demo a year or to ago outside Buckingham Palace to protest Prince Andrew’s behaviour, and not a single outlet covered it.

In a way I’m glad this grubby episode has properly woken me up, I used to pay very little heed to the whole circus.

I’m trying to remain neutral and objective but I Don find the forelock-tugging credulousness of some people quite surprising. Just as they find my batshit crazy conspiracy mindset quite daft, I’m sure. :-)

I wax and wane on it.

I just think it's barmy if they are body doubles or AI altered footage/photos.

But all of the 3 Kates we have seen in the past 3 weeks look.... different.

I don't know. Something isn't right.

I just don't know why we can't have a little photoshoot of her reading some cards saying thank you for your kind wishes.

That would be easier than all this.

There is a video too, in which you can clearly see it's them, this photo isn't the best at all to be fair

She looks different here to the first car pap shot

Looks nothing like her

She appears to be a lot younger and somehow has changed her eye colour too🙄

I've just been reading the BBC website while having my morning coffee break and the whole farm shop visit isn't reported directly, but there is an item about William Sheffield today and in that article there is mention of the farm shop visit with a link to the Sun website. Do the BBC usually link to other 'news' outlets like that?

I assume they've done it as the farm shop stuff isn't verified???

Link here:

I think there is clearly something going on that the RF don't want the public to know about. I have no idea what this is but there have now been such a series of odd events that I am almost certain that something is up. This isn't just wild speculation anymore but proven strange things like the photograph being edited.

It's been a complete PR disaster and I can only assume that they are hiding something pretty big to make all this worthwhile. I really hope that it isn't anything terribly sad about Kate but if it is then I genuinely think that the palace would have been better issuing a statement alluding to her condition being serious and asking for privacy. They wouldn't have to provide details but this would be enough for the public to understand that they need to give her the time and space she needs to recover and that there isn't anything scandalous going on. I honestly think most people don't want to pry into someone's life when they're very unwell but the palace insisting all is fine is making people concerned and unfortunately makes Kate more of a fair target from the perspective of the press.

Sun and Sky are both Murdoch organs, just saying.

Deals will be getting done.

According to LinkedIn he does still work for Lego. He is not and has never been head of their online and digital marketing. He is a Digital Engagement Lead, a far more junior position that means he is involved in Lego's social media presence and their own fan forums.

But don't let the facts get in the way of a good conspiracy theory.

So not an actual lie then. Just a feeling that's something's not right. Hey ho.

I don't subscribe to the idea she should be trotted out for a picture to appease the public. It's up there with her being forced to stand on the steps of the Lindo Wing hours after giving birth.

This story started in the Mirror, which is nothing to do with Murdoch.

It’s all so bizarre I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s not one single thing, it must be two or more.

There’s some kind of perfect storm going on behind the scenes.

It genuinely looks nothing like her. She's lost a tonne of weight since the last picture 2 weeks ago! God I don't wanna be one of those people but all seems dodgy af.
