Kate in car with face turned away

Sadly I've become too interested in Picturegate than is good for the level of hygiene in my household.
But ... that image of Kate turning away has stuck in my mind and is exercising me more than the Mothers Day photo.
If she was going to an appointment surely she'd be in a car with dark windows and not hitching a ride in a car n going somewhere else ?
She clearly did not want her face to be seen.
So she's being forced to do something against her will.
Which now makes me think differently about Harry and Meghan.
Any thoughts ?

If she had a face lift, it will take 3 months to heal properly
She probably doesnt want the public to see her scars

Or else William unalived her

Its one or the other

myrtleWilson · 14/03/2024 10:38

Yes @elizabethdraper those are the only two possible explanations.

Daz57 · 14/03/2024 10:39

Enough of the fantasies! Kate has been unwell like thousands of other people, has a high profile job and has taken 3 months away to recuperate. Poor woman. I hope she doesn’t read all the nonsense being written about her and her family.

Cosmeticchanges · 14/03/2024 10:39

Why the hell would she have a face lift? She's beautiful enough but more to the point everyone would notice and if you don't notice what's the point and then KP really would be branded as lying as they said abdominal surgery

I don't normally care but I'm starting to feel really protective of her. Can people just leave her alone for a minute!
Imagine what impact all this public speculation can have on any normal human being.

@Needmorelego

"oh look there's that fat squirrel Louis told you about"

I read the OP then a few of the replies, realised that I really do want to clean my kitchen work surfaces right now :)

and think that bit of your reply is probably the best reply I am going to read today ! on this post, so I am away to clean with a smile on my face.

Some of the posts on this thread, and the insight they give into some posters' minds, are actually genuinely frightening.

Hoglet70 · 14/03/2024 10:52

This is hilarious! It's worse than Corrie!

Evanna13 · 14/03/2024 10:53

I do think this photo was staged. It's sad that they had to do it.

If they drove through London another photograph of her would have been taken. The level of interest in her at the moment is incredibly high. Its too much of a coincidence that the only photograph taken of her is with her head completely turned to the side.

There is obviously something going on that they don't want us to know about. I think we should leave her to recover in peace but my trust in anything they put out is gone.

This is a phenomenally good bit of SEO clickbaiting journalism to catch the Kate wave, which made me laugh this morning: https://www.ft.com/content/6bba4771-a455-41f1-ba3b-2b9f43add832

The photographers don't take photos because there's an agreement that the UK press won't publish them.

amberedover1 · 14/03/2024 11:01

For everyone saying "leave her alone" , "bullies"
why do you believe that SM and the Media are having a massive effect on her and her actions ?
If she is following then she will see that there are many offering her sympathy and understanding.
If she's following and is upset , do you think no one is supporting her, advising her not to take it to heart ,not to respond?
Do you think she's like the woman next door and has no resources, nowhere to hang out undisturbed, no previous experience?
If she's not following what do you think is going on ?
She's being fed all the negative stuff? Advisors or others in the RF are following and reacting by putting pressure on her?

If she's receiving no support, not being protected, being persuaded to take action to appease the "baying mob" rather than ignore them , then I think that's wrong . Needs to be spoken about publicly.

Ah so sweet that you are so caring about a woman you don't even know. You start posts to give her support as she is being forced to do things.

TheSnowyOwl · 14/03/2024 11:06

ColleenDonaghy · 14/03/2024 09:47

She agreed to be papped to quiet some of the more ridiculous dead/coma rumours, but isn't happy with the appearance of her face and so she turned her head.

Yes, this is all there is to it.

My initial impression was that she looked too dressed up with that formal looking hat and hairstyle. Then i saw that this is another photoshop.
It does sound like they are portraying her as unstable, like they painted Diana RIP. I think this is William's doing.

You can’t see what she’s wearing in the car! Someone posted that other pic online and started cooking up a conspiracy and here we fucking go again. The photographer has confirmed the location and the circumstances in which he took the photo. She was not photoshopped into the picture, there is no mystery regarding the bricks, you can’t see her hairstyle in the car.

Needmorelego · 14/03/2024 11:09

@OlderGlaswegianLivingInDevon glad I made your day 😂
Here....have a squirrel.

You do not know anything about her, you do realise that don't you?

Sparetoes · 14/03/2024 11:10

I think we none of us know about her state of mind or the reason behind what went on that day, but it was very odd.

  • hitching a lift in an official car like that is unusual? If she had a personal appointment, you'd expect her to have her own driver?
  • if she was going to a personal appointment and didn't want to be seen, yes they could have had darkened windows
  • it seems like the joint trip and the photo opp were a direct response the the furore over the Mother's Day photo, but if that's the case, it was incredibly badly done.

These are people who are very good at smiling and waving, understand the importance of looking like all is well and are usually very good at it. On this occasion, despite knowing there would be huge press interest (odd there'sonly one photo actually) they didn't "perform".

Now of course, Kate is unwell and we were told not to expect to see her until Easter, which is fine afaic, but therefore, why not actually do that? Why wheel her out for all to see and then do it so badly?

So either somethings afoot, or the KP PR have done a truly shocking job, maybe both.

TheSnowyOwl · 14/03/2024 11:06

Yes, this is all there is to it.

This, absolutely that’s what happened. They found a tame pap who is trusted and did this to quell the rumour mill on she’s dead and she simply doesn’t wish her face to be seen.

user1984778379202 · 14/03/2024 11:13

Maybe she didn't have any make-up on and when she saw the photographer turned away because she knew it would spark loads of nasty articles and threads about her looking washed out. Even she must like going out without a face full of slap occasionally.

But seriously, leave the poor woman alone.

This could well be it, but if it is, there were much more than minor adjustments to the Mother's Day photo.

The photo was put out to "prove" all is well. It wasn't just a family snap, it was sent to all the new agencies as news. If that was false or misleading, that is a problem. It's not the same as airbrushing a pimple.

Oh cmon, she was being apparently driven round central London, which is generally packed , in a car with clear windows and a security convoy, of course it wasn’t she thought ooh someone with a phone I’ve not got my lippy on.

I am thinking of starting a thread about the relative shades of my cat’s poos in her litter tray because it will be more interesting than the constant Kate threads.

Then stop reading them? I have no idea why folks take the time out their day to read something, post about something, they don’t find interesting. If you enjoy your cat shit more, go fill your boots.

amberedover1 · 14/03/2024 11:16

@ChVrches there's no need for that tone.
I started the thread because I've become interested in the discussion around Kate.
And I wanted to hear what others thought about this snap of her in the car.
I don't know her ,I don't think that means I shouldn't express concern about what I perceive to be her position. I also think it's ok to point out that she has resources that many of us don't.
