Lovely new photo of Catherine and the children has been released

[BirthdayRainbow]

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

I’m not expert on trees but the one in the background doesn’t look like evergreen even for me.
By now their PR team should have been more careful in general while releasing photos and statements, it’s basically the main thing they are paid for (and I suspect they are paid well).

However I’m thinking more likely that it’s a recent photo. If William is anything as my DH when doing photos I prefer to sit rather than stand for hours.

oh for goodness sake

Imagine what happens when they really like a photo 😂

So true. I'm no Royalist at all, much more republican, but am just pleased that she can be back with her children for Mothers Day, which will be important to them all as people, not royals.

I know what is tedious.

It ain’t that photo.

But who wears skinny jeans - so skinny they’re tucked into her boots! - when recovering from abdominal surgery?

I have several pairs of skinny jeans that are basically leggings - no zip or button. They’re very comfortable for sitting around in. And for all we know, she’s sized up or she’s left them unfastened. You can’t see her midriff at all.

Agree with this. I very much doubt she's as ill as is being speculated. She just doesn't like working.

I've got a rose tree in my garden which is full of green leaves at the moment.

Thank you Alan Titchmarsh

What the hell is wrong with some of you people? It’s very clear that the biggest haters of women, are in fact women.

It’s a lovely photo of a mum with her kids. Happy Mother’s Day y’all!

All the speculation. No ring ahhh. Maybe she’s puffy and it doesn’t fit currently or maybe she’s lost weight and again it doesn’t fit. Maybe she just don’t wear it at home. It’s not like she’s got to show off to anyone.

It’s too green it’s old not new… looks out at my garden full of colour mostly green with some purple and yellow.

Shes sitting and not front and centre kind pushed in the background or whatever was said. She’s meant to be recovering from surgery. Plus who cares if she’s sat down.

The children are too happy. It’s fake because Williams a bore. So you know his private persona cool beans. Also children are allowed to be a happy smile as they like it’s not a museum portrait and even if it was it’s upto them/their parents.

It’s a perfectly normal nice photo of a mother with her children on Mother’s Day from the royal Family.

Very alike

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

Not sure how people know this for certain?

OMG IT'S JUST A NICE PHOTO

Also I went to to hospital in skinny jeans to have my Oldest and left wearing them 😂. If you wear them low it makes not much difference or they may be jegging types.

Can someone can analyse the length of Charlotte's hair or the toothlessness in Louis to ascertain exactly when it was taken? Because I can barely sleep for knowing when a lovely family photo was taken 🙄.

So the new conspiracy is it was taken pre op, but she'd already taken her ring off by then to start the divorce. Perhaps Wills didn't know and she slipped it off last second knowing a man would never notice. It's a coded message asking for rescue. She planned the op timing and is pretending to still be ill so she has time to get her ducks in a row, take a photo of all the financial details and secure all their passports. She's secretly packing every time he leaves the house. Mama Middleton is starting to drive Kate round so that when they do a midday flot, it would have been normal. They'll grab the kids and fly out to Harry who has always loved her as more than a sister, will kick Meghan to the curb and they'll live, with all five kids, in Californian splendour.

Charlotte and Louis look so much older!

What kind of research?!

Quite.
My dd isn't wrong when she describes MN as full of psychos.

I know! When do they start secondary school?

Really? It doesn’t look like deep winter to me personally.

last summer / spring might be a possibility. No clue whether that’s plausible based on the appearance of the children (they tend to grow quite quickly when they’re that age).

She looks like Edward in this picture.

Not Louis obviously, but George and Charlotte

Don't be ridiculous. It's from this year they wouldn't bother faking anything

I think they read a news article.

It was hardly the quest for the holy grail

Why must every opportunity be taken to slag them off?
