The photo posted on Mother’s Day by Kate Middleton is still causing a stir because it was unpublished shorty after due to editing.
“Professional photographer here. Look closely at Princess Charlotte’s wrist.
This is what happens when you composite layers in Photoshop.
I’m not speculating on why the photo was edited like this, but it’s weird,” portrait photographer Martin Bamford wrote on X. The Princess took “the blame” for manipulating the photo.
On her and William’s official X account, she wrote, “Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother’s Day. C.” Kensington Palace later confirmed it “would not be reissuing the original unedited photograph of Kate and her children.” The Associated Press, Reuters, Getty Images, and Agence France-Presse all decided to issue “kill notices,” which are advisory notices to remove or not use a specific photo.
