This is such a stupid controversy.
It actually is not a controversy. The AP directed its media members to retract a photo, and that is what happened. The AP cannot force Kensington Palace to do the same, so people can still view it there.
@@risingphoenix8072🤡
It gets people talking about them and they know they're useless and Kate was just in the hospital so people are questioning her health
Do you enjoy being lied to? Most people don't. They've lied about this from the start,, and then releasing that fake photoshopped pic is outrageous. They think you're stupid. Are you?
@@a.madison9625 a poll was taken before one of William’s visits to the USA. Americans supposedly thought William was the “world leader” most likely to achieve world peace, and was more popular than several American Presidents.
Michael Bloomberg made a joke about it as he handed over the Earthshot donation that William had come to beg for. Because it was a joke.
But British media didn’t treat it like a joke, and that’s the answer to your question. They are accustomed to being lied to about the royal family, but choose to believe it.
Imagine trying to heal with all this bullcrap coming at you! The press should be ashamed. Surely there are more important issues in the world to be reporting on.
THEY'RE NOT REALLY CONCERNED IT'S ALL FOR TV RATINGS THAT'S ALL...SAME WAy THEY TALK ABT D INFAMOUS SUSSEX DUO THO THEY HATE HAZMEG TOO MUCH
Imagine releasing a fake photo and trying to pass it off as real. You still haven't seen Kate in 2024, you don't even know if she had surgery. This whole thing stinks to high heaven. They've been caught in several lies and it just keeps going. As for her healing, she doesn't need to be affected by any of it. You think she's on Twitter and social media, checking for news about herself? Ridiculous. she has 5 estates upon which to recouperate from, surely you can't feel sorry for her. The best medical care, all free, full time nursing on call, butlers, maids, she doesn't have to lift a finger.
Meanwhile the homeless are still starving in the streets and what has William really done for them, other than announce he's going to build 24 apartments some time in the future.
I have no idea why this is even a story. Just stop already
Why? An individual personal opinion can’t stop the opinions of other people who disagree with it.
@@risingphoenix8072you’re what’s wrong with society. Really, if your world revolves around inconsequential things like this- I feel sorry for you.
@@overanDownUnder I’m trying to be concerned about your opinion, but

We all love a little game of hide and seek once in a while, do we not??😊😅
Maybe they want to distract us away from the murder scene!??😮
The public has more class than the media. Leave her alone.
well they never left Meghan alone
@@filipepedro8272 That part.
When the media began its intensely personal attacks against Meghan, and people joined in, it opened the door for it to happen to everyone in the royal family. Genie is out of the bottle, and the British tabloids released it.
@@filipepedro8272because Megnuts doesn’t leave us alone with her constant pr propaganda 😂
You mean like how they left Harry and Meghan alone?
I hope Kate is doing well
Well enough to sit down and photoshop-butcher her own photos and manipulate the press and world over. She's doing well enough for me!
Hello, how are you doing ?
I have been praying for Princess Catherine everyday for her speedy, full and complete recovery. Please leave Princess Catherine alone to recover in peace without being attacked by the media.
The general public are the sane ones here!! The media need to take heed to what they are saying
What a time waster. Why is this important?
Important enough for you to click and watch and comment.
This does not waste the time of people who want to see it, or the time of people who ignore it.
Because the woman may be in danger if they go to these lengths
She's with her lover Thomas Kingston 😔
Distraction. Filler. Who knows.
Stop bullying Princess Katherine like they did to Lady Diana
Like Meghan too hmmm let she feel the heat a bit
@@sandraforeman3070 How spiteful.
@@sandraforeman3070 Catherine is recovering from a major surgery. There is no comparison between her and Meghan’s “look at me” antics and her own photoshopped photos taken by hired paparazzi.
@@minuete82bore off
@@minuete82Kate is getting her karma. God is always in time. Hallelujah!
Respect that she wants privacy for a health issue. Simple... Do you know what the term none of your business means.
Well she may or may not have attempted suicide due to her husbands long running affair
But this has nothing to do with her health issue, or her privacy. Kensington Palace published that photo. People who disagree with you can say so.
Hard to accept they don't want to tell you.
If she wanted privacy, why send out a photo that screams "look at me, look at me"! AND using her Vogue cover for the face? It's so fake.
This is ridiculous. The media needs to get a grip. Leave them alone!!
No. They wouldn’t leave Harry and Megan alone so now it’s Kate and Williams turn. We will not leave them alone!
@@tamlynn786 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agree but as long as people feed on this sh*" the media will continue to serve it up.
THEY MURDERED THIS WOMAN TOO
They said from the beginning she wouldn’t return to public duty until after Easter. I’m not understanding the public outcry.
It's not a public outcry, it's the media doing it's usual job of acting viciously to sell more papers etc!
Why was that photo posted - bizarre to say the least
Because they been acting extremely weird. They keep saying that Kate is well and is fine but Prince William keeps pulling out things at last the second. He shows up at things at last minute. For example the Baftas. Him attending for apparently at last minute decision and he awkward conversation with one of the nominees
@@monichat because it was mother day!! they always post a photo of one of the royal members doing mom stuff on mother's day. just like they do the men on father's day
@@jenniferurbanicWell - I have lost interes in kate F O R E V E R and will no longer comment or even look at videos abour her
Oh my word! Leave them alone!
Leave them alone? Why aren't you saying the same for all the non-stop UK tabloid bullying of Harry and Meghan for the last 5 years? The tables are now turning against William and Kate, so now you want them to be left alone? I feel for you but it's not happening. People can sense that something is being covered up by the RF.
The media needs to stop; no one is entitled to anything. No, not even unedited photos. Y’all use filters/edit…why can’t she? Honestly, if I were her I wouldn’t even be generous enough to bless the public with a picture of my children. They deserve a somewhat normal childhood.
Agreed!
Except that the footage is from december 2023 and not "last week". I worry why they said Kate made those edits and threw her under the bus :/
@@manonxg Other sources are saying that the metadata on that photo shows it was taken a week or two ago (I don’t remember the specifics) at their cottage..and that it is a mix of a few photos taken unprofessionally within a 40 minute period.
They are entitled to privacy. Everyone edits their pictures…it’s 2024.
@@Kittymeow888 Just take a look at the video "Christmas Baby Banks initiative from 2023" and tell me that I'm lying. They wear the same clothes but changed the hair and skirt from Charlotte and sweater from Louis. Exactly those things are edited in the photo "from last week". They also used a colour filter over her sweater which is super easy to do. The question is not if it's real - because it's not. Not even her left fingers are real. The question is, why are they lying by "this photo is from last week" and then blaming Kate for absurd edits?
@@manonxgkate herself has admitted to having edited the photo ...... I rest my case
Why is this important.
Media has been editing photos forever. People know this.
Your future King liedNo I did not! The part of Catherine is from a photoshoot from last year!
@@loriAlessiroberts118 Nope he didn't. YOU just did though.
Yes the photo is fake, it is a lie. @@EEmB
So you should ask yourself why the palace had to make edits so significant that it failed journalistic standards. That's why they pulled the photo. If the edits were minimal the palace should have no problem releasing the original.
“Maybe the media cares more than the public...” at least they acknowledged it 🎉
stop.....you people leave Kate alone! Several years ago I had abdominal surgery and it took me 1 year to recover. Stop bullying her.
Why did kate post that photo ?

Good on the RF, because the media's thirst cannot be satisfied.
Well, they should have also let out statements on behalf of Megan especially when she was pregnant and having mental health issues instead they let the world think that she was horrible and didn't deserve any rest
Kate has a right to privacy, but the lack of candor is concerning.
Are you a bot from the palace?
Why bother releasing a photo?
@@loriAlessiroberts118it's all very bizarre.
Who is asking for an original photo? The AP notification said no replacement photo would be provided, and that seemed to be the end of it.
MORE IMPORTANT THINGS HAPPENING AROUND THE WORLD 🌎
Oh for pete sake. We all photo shop pictures in this day and age.
but when meghan posed for a photo with archie in a different location than the traditional one, everyone thought it was scandalous. if the whole point of the royal family is to give sneak peaks in their life, then if those sneak peaks are fake, the royal family might as well be replaced by an AI generated one. so much easier and cheaper, right? i don’t know why they couldn’t just say she’s still recovering from her surgery and that’s that. it’s perfectly understandable.
No we don't 😂
But we don't lie and say we took it last week!
But Willy said he took it days earlier so that makes him a liar and now it's suspicious
Can you teach me how? I have a few I’d like to edit ✍️
What is the big deal. She edited her own pic.. i dont understand..
Stay out of their lives why is everyone so nosy. Leave the poor person alone
The media is making this a worse situation, quit listening to bullies online. Your own survey showed 49% think what Catherine has given the public is enough.
Omg. Leave her alone. This is ridiculous. Everyone edits photos. The girl is next to perfect since college
All the controversy over the photo is so silly. Try to get three children to pose for a picture. The metadata revealed it was taken last week, and via Photoshop, it was a combination "good" shots. They probably just didn't do a great job of it. The original statement about her health said it all. She's trying to keep things normal for her kids. She loves children so much, but if your stomach muscles need to repair after surgery, try having kids running around, regardless of any "help" you might have. Imagine all the mixed emotions she (and they're) having. Have an ounce of empathy. Truly, it's much ado about nothing
Oh shut up. They place Kate head one someone else body
@@Whitneypyant You must be a psychic to say such a thing. Or did you take the pic? Otherwise you keep quiet as you have no idea what you are talking about.
The public doesn’t care so let’s keep talking about….how about you’re the ones that are making it an issue and no one else cares. Let’s get some real journalism going.
The official media should stop taking the lead from social media. This is pathetic.
OMG , peoole need to find something else to do than pick apart online photos
What kind of delusion must you have to think yourself entitled to someone else's unedited photograph?
My guess is they have done it before they just got caught this time
It’s because there is no photo. It was faked which means they lied. Liar liar pants on fire
This is so stupid.
@@HLB512 What are we suspecting them of, besides wanting their photographs to look nice?
Agree, @DrDoohickey, it's disturbing and disgusting. The media are throwing a hissy fit cause they didn't get intimate private details about the princess body and health, so now they are vindictive.

The media is nasty . Photo shopping is a crime ? Every picture out there is tweaked. I am happy that she admits
That she dabble in photo enhancement. I am happy that there will be no release of the original. Why? For more scrutiny? You will see her when she is ready .
For God sakes, just leave them alone! Let them be! We do not own them! Enough is enough! 😒
🤭😂🤣🤡
😂😂😂
Calm down. lol don’t get your panties in a bunch.
Oh wow! Did you have that same energy when the media bullied Harry and Megan non stop? Or … do you just pick and choose?
@@tamlynn786 no Megan, this time the subject wasn’t about you!
Literally every magazine on earth and every commercial with a woman in a bikini has been edited i dont see a problem here
FGS. Leave her alone.
Be quiet. People like you have so much to say about Harry and Meghan. Seriously - get over yourself. Why is she any different?
@@noellawson41 Exactly! They were goading on the media, now its happening to Kate, then all the sudden its bullying 🙄
@@noellawson41 for your info, I say that about them all if necessary. Not just Catherine, so you get over yourself.
Bullies!
Liars ! Why post a photo from last November??
How about I don’t care. Get out of my feed!
There is a way to block things you don’t like. Taking personal responsibility is a real thing. Deleting without watching is a thing too.
😂😂😂 its a conspiracy😱 How dare Catherine wish mothers a Happy Mothers Day!
Click....click.....click.....
Give us what we want.... We want a pic... We want Catherine...Waaaaagh
Breaking News! Catherine will be out and about around Easter🐰
She edited her pictures like many of us it not a freaking crime
The picture was not taken by William last week, he lied and he's our future King!
I think the lying about it is the actual controversy.
Every single photographer edits their photos 🤦🏼♀️ Come on, people.
TODAY Show? Are you the National Enquirer now? You are above these kinds of stories! Leave her alone. Everyone edits their own photos these days! She probably selected the best photos from several different photos so each of the folks would look their best.
The place should release whats wrong with her to put a stop to all these conspiracies theories
That is quite disgusting. Do your really think you are entitled to an other persons body and intimate details about their health? Why don't we put your medical chart on the local community board and the local media for everyone to read?
@@EEmB because I pay for my own medical bills. The royal family has their luxury and medical procedures paid with taxpayers hard earn money. This is why the monarch should be abolished. That way Kate can have all the privacy she needs. She knew what she was doing
You can't release a photo that never happened.
Metadata confirmed it was 4 photos, taken a few seconds apart, 2 days before it was released. The photos were merged to get the best picture of the kids. What’s the problem? This is bullying of the worst kind. Just leave her alone…
@@jacquelinethomas4932 That is false.
Exactly.
Isn't the people in the picture the same ones you have seen over a hundred times? In the internet there are applications to do exactly that like erasing crooked smiles, fixing shine or glowing eyes, etc, etc. Some are better than using the new technologies. To the bullies out there leave the future queen alone. Stop stressing her over and over, when all she wants is to recuperate in privacy.
Why can't they leave Catherine alone - do they want to do the same to her as what they did to Diana? Or are you trying to break up a perfect normal married couple. Just stop! Honestly the press should be more restricted on everything they say or publish about the Royal Family. Just leave her alone to heal. Photo shopped photo or not. You are not to judge others only - God has that right!
Catherine doesn't owe any of us anything. That was generous of her to share a family photo for Mother's Day in the first place.
No!! She is living off the tax-payers!!
She is public property when it suits her!!
In other words nothing significant in the photo was altered - and it was a candid shot for mother's day - who cares when it was taken. Catherine is recuperating from surgery and is not back to royal duties until after Easter - who in their right mind would go on display when they are recuperating - this is crazy!
No, the photo was totally fake, they put an old image of her head on this body. You don't seem to understand Prince William committed fraud when he knowingly release a totally fake photo. That's why the Palace is no longer a "trusted source." He destroyed any credibility the monarchy had. No one believes a word out of William's mouth now. It also goes to show Harry was telling the truth the whole time. He talked about how William issued a "joint" statement from the two of them that Harry had never seen or signed off on. William forged Harry's signature.
It's just like issuing this fake pic. That's who William is. A bully and a liar.
Princess Catherine Of Wales Support From Balkan !!!!!!!!
Oh my god she is human. Please for the love of god leave princess Catherine alone!!!!!
Good Lord. A zipper, a wrist, a ring...she made MINOR changes. WHO CARES. Funny how you don't say a word about all of Nutmeg Markle's proven lies but good God, you won't let up on minor edits to a photo by Princess Catherine. Good for Kensington Palace for refusing to engage in this nonsense. Sorry you can't even heal and recuperate properly, Princess Catherine. Be well and we'll see you soon.
I don't understand this. Hasn't everyone edited photos? I can't imagine this being a news story in America. Are things really that different in the UK?
Cause the media (and some people online) couldn't force the Princess into giving them intimate details about her private health, as they think they own and are entitled to her body, so now they are on the revenge path.
Why are we so concerned over an edited photo?
You people act like we all don’t edit photos of our families. Get a grip.
There is edited and there is manipulated. The photo was manipulated. They used what appears to be Kate British vogue picture from 8 years ago and place it on someone head. It would account the harsh line and why zipper is cut off. It would account on why part of her hair is blurry
Cause the media (and some people) couldn't force the Princess into giving them intimate and private details about her own health, as they think they own her body, so now they are on the revenge path.
Wait do you take your face from old pictures and put it on new pictures?
Why doesn't William just do a small video like they were doing back in their Zoom calls during covid to end this madness. I think this family's history with Diana is making people overthink if Kate is okay or not. Let them just do one video to end this 😂
People would say she is a clone or that the video is videoshopped. Best answer: silent contempt.
Prince Andrew did a small interview once
@@user-od3hf9hr4sNot an interview, just a video to say “look we have all these amazing charity events planned in summer” ask them about the hairy work and it only needs to be like 5 minute
People who "overthink" this are all, ALL, unwell. It's not a healthy reaction to see conspiracies everywhere, specially where there are non. If they would do a video, people would still see conspiracies, or get fooled into thinking they are some by trolls.
The kids were giving the finger, she photo shopped it out … end of story. Leave her alone.
😂😅
Was this thing about kids giving the finger reported, or did Kate say it?
This was more than simple edits, or else the direction to retract would not have been issued.
There is no original photo to release.
Leave her alone. People have the right to privacy. She’ll talk about it when she’s ready. Obviously she wasn’t well in the photo. If we don’t care…You shouldn’t care!
As a photographer many of us use the new AI photo editors to touch up and brighten things in photos. So maybe that’s what happened to Kate’s photo. Maybe she was pregnant and was showing in this photo and lost that baby and wanted to keep that private and that can explain the abdominal surgery she had. Who knows, just let her be and hopefully until then she can learn to photo shop her photos better or hire a professional photographer to edit them.
Kate and the rest of the royal family has an ocean of people and professionals that handle these things. She did not take the photo, she did not edit the photos, she did not deliver the photo, she did not handle the file, she did not have anything to do with this mishap. She may edit her own photos on her cellphone with some modern AI app, but not an official photos meant to be used in a press release worldwide.
Pretty poor excuse for a photographer if you can ignore the glaring editing issues in these photos. But judging by your profile picture, it makes sense that you would oversee very basic things...
@@noellawson41 I did not say I didn’t see any of the editing issues at all, I was simply giving my opinion on what could of happened and why the editing looks as it does so why would you be rude to say something about my profile photo? Do you have self esteem issues and have to take it out on others?
@@noellawson41 and fyi my photo was taken with a cell phone lol color touch up with cell phone editor if you want to know so nothing was over used, I’ve been doing photography more than likely longer than you have been on this earth so I know a thing or two about it.
@@centerfear-mysterycrimerec3627 well I didn’t say she took this photo and if you had watched this video it says she does like to do photography and likes to edit her photos herself sometimes, which is why I said she needs to learn to edit better if she did edit this photo herself or hire someone who can edit it better for her. Thank you so much for all your info regarding what Kate does and does not do, are you her publicist? Serious question since you know so much about what she does and doesn’t do.
The Palace and the Royals owe you nothing.
Oh my goodness! Enough already. We ALL edit our photos. Goodness! 😮
I just find it ironic that the press is whinging about this photo. The media in all its forms manipulate and edit photos every day of the week for their own ends!! We have all edited our own photos at one time or another so why shouldn't the Princess, leave her alone please.
Kate is saying "None of your business. You don't own me."
Who is "Kate Middleton"?? Are they referring to the Princess of Wales?
You know exactly who Kate Middleton is so stop the nonsense. Not everyone who comments here lives in the UK. She is Kate Middleton. Get use to it!
@@lolalove39573 So you call people by their collage nick name, and unmarried maiden name, cause they don't come from the same country as you?! That is some new level of having the need to bully people to try to feel some self worth and act superior. Embarrassing.
6 minutes of tv air for a picture? What is wrong people?
Now you understand why Meghan and prince Harry run away
Could you imagine the queen caving to people who wanted an answer, she NEVER would have done it. People need to grow up and move on
She caved when Princess Diana died. She wasn't stupid.
So what. Has there been a unaltered photo in the last 35 Years
theirs a war going on rightnow and the news is worried about photoshop. thats insane
It's none of anyone's business.
I’m confused because I don’t see anything wrong or altered in this photo ????
The media's reaction to this has caused a HUGE reaction in support of Catherine and a HUGE amount of disgust from the general public towards the folks who are blowing this out of proportion. I join with the thousands who are telling the media in no uncertain terms...LEAVE HER ALONE!!!
🎯🎯🎯🇺🇸
The media embarrasses itself, over and over.
You are giving them too much credit, because they don't have moral boundaries. M is probably their idol. That one is never embarrassed about anything.
She shouldn’t have to share her private health details. Stop bothering her!
That second picture is even more creepy
I don’t know why people care so much about this. If she had surgery let her recover in peace. If they wanted people to know what was going on they would tell.
Princess Catherine ❤ minor editing to her own photos this is a news ! I actually think this nonsense will make the Princess even more popular this as Princess diana vibes to it. Most reasonable thinking people can see how ridiculous it all is and will rally around the Princess.
You media people should STOP THIS NONSENSE! It is bullying! Leave the Princess of Wales alone!
So what!!!!!!!!!!
"I'm still a rockstar, I got my rock moves, AND I DON'T NEED YOU!! and guess what, now that we're done, I'm having more fun..."
It’s a simple photo of the family…… stop bothering these people! What is wrong with you people. It doesn’t matter what you people think! Get a life! Cathrine is recovering from surgery, leave her alone!
Media is bored
Omg! Damage control for a photoshopped picture? What kind of insanity is this? Leave her alone!
As The World Turns...
So disappointed in a Hoda and whatever those other media personalities (not reporters). This is lunacy, the public doesn’t care but let’s talk about it anyway. We don’t care, neither should you.
Edited the photo ?
SO WHAT ?
It is hilarious that the media and public are trying to manufacture an issue where none exists.
Get on with your own lives.
The mother of three just had major surgery. Let her heal!!
Is this real that the media is screaming about a “doctored” photo. Really? 😂😂😂
Why is this such a big deal? It looks like a nice family photo.
Everyone throwing a fit because Kate edited her own photoa are the same ones who edit their own photos. Created for attention.
So much ado about nothing! The media is making a stupid fuss over something almost everybody does. Leave the lady alone! I liked the photo. I don’t care if she did some touch-ups.
Its her right to refuse..leave them alone
I have had many surgeries, I know how difficult it is to recover, and no offense meant, but the Princess is not 16 anymore, the older one is, the more difficult it can be to recover.
Leave her to heal, if its still important enough (And it won't be because the media hounds will have moved on by then) revisit at that time.
Gosh, too bad we do not have actual issues to discuss- global climate change, chaos in Haiti, war in Ukraine and Gaza....
How about leave people alone??? Ridiculous. She wanted to release a photo with her children and used Photoshop like the rest of the world, come on. You have three kids?? They never smile at the same time, someone's eyes are closed, etc. And if she's ill... You think you're helping??
STOP BULLYING HER.
Are you absolutely kidding me. She is under the microscope and every family shot must be so stressful for her! Kate you are amazing and you keep being you
That picture doesn’t even look edited, it looks like AI
an original photo doesn't exist. can't provide something that doesn't exist.
Oh, look another segment of bullying the Princess of Wales even more over this non-issue of a mother editing a family pic to make it nice for a Mother's Day post? Shame on you!
