  • 'NOT Kate's fault!' Tom Bower SLAMS princess's advisors over edited photo crisis | The Reaction
    This week on The Reaction with Andrew Pierce and Sarah Vine, is it time for the Prince and Princess of Wales to come clean about what’s really going on following the furore over that infamous edited Mother’s Day photo? Royal biographer Tom Bower says Kate Middleton was ‘pressured’ into doing the shoot to stop trolls on social media. The royal author also blamed the palace, saying that like King Charles, Prince William and Kate are being advised by ‘yes men’, and that the crisis leaves the couple ‘vulnerable’ to snipes from Prince Harry and Meghan and the whole Sussex camp.
    Andrew and Sarah also discuss whether Boris Johnson is really making an election comeback to help the Conservatives on the doorstep, and whether he can save Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. Andrew says the former Prime Minister is the best campaigner since Margaret Thatcher said but Sarah says he won’t touch this election ‘with a barge pole’.
    Andrew is furious that Cheltenham 2024 has scrapped Ladies Day in favour of Style Day. He says it’s more woke madness. And Sarah says that pet owners are being conned out of thousands of pounds by vets because they will do anything for their beloved animals.
    Plus, Showbiz supremo Katie Hind gives her verdict on Cat Deeley and Ben Shepherd’s This Morning debut, and the inside track on the fall-out between Celebrity Big Brother’s Louis Walsh and the pop duo, Jedward.

I wouldn’t want pro photographers in the house either.

    So what I keep hearing from Sarah is there is not a problem with the photo as such the problem is Catherine did it herself rather than letting the experts do it for her. A large portion of us do not wear our wedding rings 24/7 especially after surgery so in my view not wearing her ring makes Catherine even more relatable.

      In my opinion the US press is far too vocal about our royal family. Since Meghan Markle arrived on the U.K. scene and announced her intention to destroy our monarchy, the flood of tweets containing very damaging and usually inaccurate comments about the senior members of our RF have flooded across the pond. Even President Biden chipped in about the recent photo furore. Far better for the naysayers to look at the US presidential campaign.

Bullying others whilst they recover from serious illness, is not a normal way for decent humans to relate to one another; she is lacking empathy and I bet ms Vine allowed herself time to recover from whatever health issue she experienced, without having to defend herself and constantly justify her own actions. Or perhaps she didn’t find support? So she will not support others. Appalling behaviour from most of the least successful members of the press. And now it looks as if all these old washed out presenters/ journalists have ended up on UA-cam, unfortunately for us.

Who would have thunk? I am team H&M but it’s pretty scary and jarring to see how quick they can come down on them. It’s also jarring that the media is crying lack of trust, as if people trust the media ?!? Bless their hearts. Royal family needs to divorce themselves from the media!! They don’t need them.

    No, it is not a peculiar thing to tweak home snaps, most families, teenagers do this all the time! Catch up for goodness sake. We teach in schools how to use photoshop! The palace released it, so you all knew full well it was bonafide. This was a generous and beautiful sentiment, to send, a lovely reassuring image of the family to the Nation on Mothers Day. She didn’t do this with any malice to deceive anyone, it was an innocent and natural gesture, as an enthusiastic amateur photographer, she would not necessarily know of publishing rules and regs. Trust is a two way road, how can you press expect the Royals to trust You lot!? Understand, she never improved her own appearance, by editing…just the children’s clothes slightly. It actually is shame, should Catherine be made to use only professional photographers, in future,
    Which will result in no more natural poses. And no more personal insights or glimpses into their private world. I don’t blame them for being defensive after the rude way the press behaves. Like a vicious degrading pack of wolves….Both senior royals are seriously unwell. Yet you bully them both. No excuses ms Vine, thank you.

      It's not "editing"!

      Andrew explains what it is at about 4 minutes into this video.
      Reputable photo agencies do not pull edited photos!
      They pull things like composites where a bunch of separate images have been cobbled together (copied from other photos and pasted).
      So it's not "a photo taken by William".
      That's a lie, apparently.
      It's embarrassing and quite shocking that one of the spokesmen from Agence France Presse (one of the agencies) said they didn't initially scrutinize it because the Royal Family "have been a trusted source for years".
      But, he added, "they aren't anymore". 😢

      This is being discussed all over the world by very average people. Don't let these people fool you. They know exactly what is wrong with Kate. They know she had nothing to do with this picture. They will twist the knife to get the truth soon enough. Why else did they print a picture of William in a car that was not his wife? Veiled threat.

    I think the picture did not make it worse. The media did. I really do not understand the backlash from the media about a mother who SLIGHTLY altered a family photo to make it better. The “layer of mistrust” is coming from the media. Not the fans. I commend William for taking control of the family media.
    As a Canadian I am appalled at the media reaction. I believe YOU are to blame.

      And research when and why reputable photo agencies "kill" photo releases.
      Someone from one of the photo agencies said the Royal Family "were a trusted source but are not anymore".

    The most appalling thing about this whole Catherine and the photo issue has been the behaviour of the media. Absolutely out-of-proportion , full-on trolling (and I'm not talking about the press agencies 'killing' it). Just despicable behaviour. Catherine releases a photo with the children every year in honour of Mothering Sunday. This year she's recovering from surgery so they didn't use a professional photographer. The trolls have been driving all the conspiracy theories, and are driving all this 'lack of trust' rubbish as well. Kill orders have been issued on all kinds of photographs over the years - but have not generated anything like this massive attack. Meghan and Harry have ALSO had photos 'killed' for photoshopping - and regularly release photos that have very obviously been heavily edited. These raise regular comments in the media - but nothing like the vicious firestorm unleashed on the Wales.

You should be questioning the Palace for maybe putting this together without her knowledge or Prince William perhaps. Even if she did it which I doubt , it was a dumb move and she doesn’t deserve defending as lovely as she is. If she is so sick that she can’t make a press release, publicly give thanks to well wishes, stays in the hospital for 2 weeks to be absent from public duties for months I can’t believe she is spending her time photoshopping and editing to deceive the public like this?
