How do you know this wasn't all her idea? She didn't want a new photo taken and shared and compromised on a mish mash which didn't quite work? She's supposed to be on some kind of medical leave of absence and people won't stop bugging her.

So fine, she didn't want a new photo taken. Why not, instead,
- Use the November pic, photoshop everybody's clothes to pretend it's recent, but NOT change her hand which seems completely unnecessary if the pic is a few months old?
- Use the November pic but NOT claim it was from last week?

This this this. They went out their way to be deceitful as possible. That's not Kate's MO at all. if she wasn't feeling up to it she would made a brief statement it's old and moved on.

Hysteria would have ensued.

Mish mash? Because she's a million times smarter then to think it would ever work.

Really? Ok. I thought everyone was convinced she was a lazy, stupid, social climber.

Depends on the day and the narrative

I don't think so. Hysteria is what we have now.

She's the last person to need a tummy tuck

I had three kids and also had a tummy tuck and no amount of losing weight or working out would have addressed what the tummy tuck fixed. But that said a tummy tuck is an outpatient procedure, I imagine the royals are treated less like cattle but this is way too long a recovery timeline for a TT.

There’s no way you would have been comparable patients. She was in great shape, and it’s unlikely you were.

lol well I was in fact in amazing shape thank you very much. Even thin women struggle with the mom pooch there’s no way to prevent it’s just genetics

DP. Kate's stomach always looks super-flat in her pics, though. Unless she's wearing a lot of support garments.

So you don't deny they photoshopped her hand on an old photo. Why do you think they did that?

Yeah. PP is deluded. I’m guessing before her tummy tuck she wasn’t wearing semitransparent gold gowns showing a lack of that pooch. Lol.

I watched 9 minutes of this so you don't have to. They're in a stupefied quandary as to "why" the kill order -- only mentioned possible irregularities in girl's sleeve/hair and boy's fingers -- never mentioned any manipulation of Kate and never mentioned that is almost certainly was taken in Nov 2023, etc.

The “kill order” comes from the AP. The AP put the photo on the wire, which means news organizations who are members of the AP can use it. The “kill order” says “hey, retract and/or don’t publish this photo, because it was digitally altered and we didn’t know and didn’t label it as such.” It doesn’t matter if the digital manipulation was just adding her hand or photoshopping out a cow in the background or whatever. The AP is just following its policy about digital editing.

then 3 brit pro press ladies spent 9 minutes acting like they could not imagine what the brouhaha was about - whereas DCUMers snuffed it out in minutes here - and before KP issued the apology.

My friend said it's because people who easily spotted it out have trust issues LOL. Jk! but she has a point. I don't blindly follow what the news says. Those ones who called it out, saw the pictures and could see it was altered. One of those things you can't argue

Proof of life today

This is not proof of life. We can’t even see her face.

What would be a satisfactory proof of life?

We saw her face- and the claim was it was a body double.

Photo release - shown to be doctored not current


Today's photo - can't see her face.

So what do you need?

Don't be obtuse. There have been three attempts at proof of life in the last week.

1) Blurry photos taken by american paps with her in the car with her mom

2) Photo issued from the palace that is immediately proven to be heavily doctored

3) Blurry photos taken by a KP placed photographer where she refuses to look at the camera.

What would obviously clear this up is a normal to high quality picture of her face. Which isn't exactly a lot to ask from someone who's literal job is to be photographed in places and who has a substantial staff paid to make her look good. The fact that they have not done this despite CLEARLY knowing it needs to be done and fumbling two attempts shows that something is wrong.

I mentioned all 3. The American photos weren't blurry you and your ilk just decided it didn't look enough like her because her face was puffy.

Just admit you won't be satisfied with anything no matter what they do.

Au contraire personally I felt the american photos were the best and they DID give proof of life. I think she looked fine in them, which means her complete refusal to play ball with KP on putting something out means something is wrong with W+K not Kate.

Same. This is where I am starting to land. I also think the new picture with her head turned is really her.

Excuse you the detectives here would never use their Vogue photos.

Huh? Just because? Do you think she should be photoshopping her Vogue pic into all her social media portraits?

This. There's no way they actually believe manipulating many photos together was the better option in minimizing conspiracies.

But also, if her “face” was borrowed from the Vogue photo shoot without permission, there is a copyright liability issue.

You are reaching now.

Why isn’t the most simple explanation being that she always posts for Mother’s Day, but thought she looks like crap after surgery so pulled an old pic of the kid she loves and put it together with her own best photo?
She didn’t actually say “this is me today!” In her post. The journalists just assumed, which was lazy of them.
