I know there will still be people saying it proves nothing, it was taken pre op but why not just enjoy the photo..

I think they should be looking at each other. Not the camera/William.

I think it’s really weird you’ve thought about it this much

I agree. It's terrible PR as it is bound to cause speculation. If done deliberately to annoy 'the little people' then it's disgraceful. I'm a big fan of the royals but is very off the mark.

Do you think they do that to remain relevant and in the news? The RF thrives on "popularity" - it keeps people talking . . .

If we are being picky, I'd also prefer the picture was in their lounge being relaxed.

Why?

GuinnessBird · 10/03/2024 11:50

Christ, some of you need to get out more.

Aquarius1234 · 10/03/2024 11:50

Chupacabara · 10/03/2024 11:48

Why?

Because I want to see something different for a change!

ArcaneWireless · 10/03/2024 11:51

If only other people could disappear for 10 years…

Viviennemary · 10/03/2024 11:51

Not convinced.

I know esp the people thinking the staged photo is lovely.

ChVrches · 10/03/2024 11:52

Should she have been wearing her house slippers instead of her hiking boots?

Tiddlywinks63 · 10/03/2024 11:52

MarchmontSt · 10/03/2024 09:29

It's a really lovely photo but I doubt it's current, mainly because of the greenery in the background.

So you’re unaware that evergreen shrubs and trees grow in this country?

Definitely and eating some bacon sandwiches.

This has to be the most saccharine thread title ever.
I cant help but hear Jennie Bond's voice as I read it.

Well it's nice that she's on her feet a bit again. Hope she's better soon.

In the meantime, this whole sorry saga will be turned into a case study module at the Crisis PR Training Centre.

WhatWhereWho · 10/03/2024 11:55

Thank goodness, am so relieved and happy. Now I can keep going until EastEnders.

HungryBeagle · 10/03/2024 11:55

Viviennemary · 10/03/2024 11:51

Not convinced.

By what?

Some of these comments are exactly the reason why they shouldn’t have bothered ….always going to encourage snidey remarks !

Edited

It's not snidely to point out that this photo, while lovely, isn't current. Why bother to publish one? So what if 'the public' is making comments? They'll still comment anyway. Paparazzi won't stop either.

This. I genuinely don’t see why people get so excited about them releasing a photo, or shock horror if William and Kate ever touch or hold hands when out. Crazy people.

It's definitely hard to search for under tags.
Under L I'm thinking what. .

That’s an old picture, you can tell as the tree in the background is full of green leaves some of which look like they are turning brown. Probably taken last autumn

From the tiles on the floor I think they’re in an orangery so the trees might be in leaf by now

JudgeJ · 10/03/2024 12:01

motheronthedancefloor · 10/03/2024 09:15

Definitely taken pre op, not that it really matters as its a lovely photo.

Not pre-op with that foliage, though cynics will say it's artificial.

eise · 10/03/2024 12:02

PosyPrettyToes · 10/03/2024 11:46

And as for the rings, she’s probably had post-surgery steroids, which would make her fingers a little puffy. She looks great.

She wouldn't be on steroids long IF they used them. If that was her she was puffy so I find it hard to believe this photo is recent.

You are GUESSING it's not a current one.

How on earth would you know? @TinkerTiger

Hotline to the Palace?

Or a horticultural expert who can name the tree in the background and knows exactly when it's in leaf?

Many trees or shrubs are in leaf all year round or if they are indoors.

HutontheBeach · 10/03/2024 12:04

My guess over rings is she's lost weight and they are being resized. Or not worn until she's put the weight back.

JudgeJ · 10/03/2024 12:04

Aquarius1234 · 10/03/2024 09:24

With the clothes the kids are wearing that photo looks like it was taken 20 years ago.
Old fashioned.

Rubbish, not all children are dressed in dangling crotch joggers etc.

TabithaTwitchel · 10/03/2024 12:04

Do you know what bothers me the most?

That the people posting on this thread walk among us. It's quite frightening really. Honestly, some truly batshit crazy posters who actually have the headspace for this stuff

I regularly hide this topic and these threads - back to it!

JudgeJ · 10/03/2024 12:05

jellyfishbubbles · 10/03/2024 09:35

It's not like their eating or anything.

Or trout-pouting!
