The Royal Palace and photoshop controversy
Social media has been buzzing with crazy theories, rumors, and speculation involving the Princess of Wales, who has been noticeably absent from the public eye since her surgery. On Sunday, in an attempt to put these rumors to rest permanently, she released a family portrait with her three children on Mother's Day. However, things took a turn for the worse after agencies pulled those down after pointing out edits in the photo.
Soon after, Kate apologised and took responsibility for the entire mishap, but the palace remained adamant about not releasing the original photo. A day later, she was photographed in a car with Prince William, her face covered up in almost all pictures, which also sparked a great deal of scrutiny online.
