It featuredKate Middletonsitting outside in a chair, while sweater-clad George, Charlotte, and Louis embraced her.
Yet all was not what it appeared.
At closer inspection, seems like the source has manipulated the image, the AP said in its advisory.
The Princess of Wales in November 2023.
No replacement photo will be sent.
Indeed, the photohadbeen altered.
Princess Charlottes left hand did not match up with the sleeve of her sweater.
The original photo shared by Kensington Palace on Mother’s Day, which drew controversy after it was suspected to have been digitally manipulated
Middletons zipper was misaligned, and some body partsincluding a knee and a handwere awkwardly blurred.
I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mothers Day.
Under normal circumstances, this would have been an awkwardalbeit carelessmistake.
But the royal familys current situation is far from normal.
She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normalcy for her children as possible.
Despite their request, speculation immediately began about the health of the princess.
(Users suggested that Middleton had snuck off to the viral Glasgow Willy Wonka experience, for example.)
Others, however, were not.
As far as I know, no other UK broadcaster or newspaper has published the photos either.)
Except that didnt happen.
Once again, conspiracy theories abounded.
The queen, it seems, always knew what the Waleses are now learning the hard way.
