So when she shows up after Easter, will she have to stand in front of Buckingham Palace, clad only in a shift while a public DNA test is done to verify her ID?

300 years ago a mob would be storming the palace and a hapless William would be fleeing for his life.

Do you realise how utterly spiteful you sound, laughing about a woman who is obviously gravely ill and having to take steroids.

Disgusting.

i dread to think what you're like in RL to be capable of that.

I wasn't laughing at Kate being ill or taking steroids. I was laughing at the RF thinking that the public would be stupid enough not to notice that Kate in today's picture was not the same Kate as in the car the other day, or to notice their shoddy photoshop.

That aside, gravely ill you say...does she look gravely ill in that photo to you? Do you agree it might not be a genuine photo from this week then?

I should add that I see nothing untoward or suspicious in her not wearing it in today's picture, but it's definitely there in those posted. Her wedding ring is only a very slim band, but it's there!

In none of those photos though is she also recovering from major surgery, though.

I reckon it’s Crohn’s and she’s had a colostomy, hence the loose and dark top. Her knee bones are quite visible, even for a slender woman they seem a bit emaciated, perhaps due to undernourishment, which also explains her sitting, probably due to weakness. Perhaps a temporary ostomy that will be removed by Easter.
I wish them all well, it must be hard for the children not to have their mummy at full speed.

Her knees are emaciated?? Wtaf 😳🤦🏼‍♀️😖

Don't most people look different when photographed from a long distance, doing the school run wearing sunglasses and no make up? As opposed to a posed for photo with hair and make up done, perhaps professionally? Even if in the same week, or even the same day?

As for 'shoddy photoshop', surely most 'celebrity' photos are edited to at least some degree. Many non famous people edit their own Facebook or Instragram photos. Nothing necessarily suspicious about that. Unless you have reason to believe otherwise?

They've never touched Photoshop before. Louis' hand on last year's Christmas card looks totally normal

Such a shame they had to photo shop it (badly)!
check out the square skirt material - so poorly edited!
They've also photoshopped the red cardigan - there’s a teeny piece they’ve left next to Charlotte's wrist….

Jeez 🙄 I bet you were on all the COVID 5G threads too back in the day.....

Good grief, is this a joke? that’s a highlight on the web between the fingers, similar to how the knuckles are white, plus foreshortening of the first two fingers makes it look weird. I dgaf about the rf, can’t wait for the republic, but the batshit posts on this thread are something else.

Serenster · 10/03/2024 22:07

There’s a hilarious post on twitter “pointing out” cracks and missing grout in the tiled flooring and messy paintwork on the mullioned wooden window frames in the background as clear AI flaws. Someone who’s never lived in a Victorian era building…🤣

I think they're all dead, so the photoshopper had to start with a photo of the Beatles. They've done a good job under the circumstances.

🤣 🤣

That's quite embarrassing, they're major news agencies.

Interesting! What does "pulled" mean - AP still has the photo on its site, while simultaneously noting that "The Associated Press initially published the photo, which was issued by Kensington Palace. But AP later retracted the image because at closer inspection, it appeared the source had manipulated the image in a way that did not meet AP’s photo standards. The photo shows an inconsistency in the alignment of Princess Charlotte’s left hand."

not wearing her wedding ring has really ramped up on twitter

Only on your X feed, you do realise they're different for every single person on there...

My apologies- I should have looked more closely . Blame the wine 🍷

Well the major news agencies appear to agree with me so it would seem. Maybe Reuters et al are just a bunch of sad, disgusting conspiracy nutters too?

Uptospeed · 10/03/2024 22:13

Piers Morgan has published the kill notification on his Twitter.

Curiouser and curiouser.

Gosh I don't stray out of Elderly Parents and Gardening much. I wonder if some of the people posting on this thread realise they sound absolutely barking mad.

Aquarius1234 · 10/03/2024 22:16

Aren't pics allowed to be photo shopped then?

Eyesopenwideawake · 10/03/2024 22:17

BBC just reported that the photo may have been manipulated. Meh.

I agree! The Royal family photos thread is really lovely though, all positive and just nice
