The Royal Family have ‘irreparably’ damaged public trust amid the Kate Middleton Mother’s Day photo edit.
Kate Middleton stepped down from public duties to focus on her health and people have been trying to figure out if the future Queen is well, questioning her future. After an edited Mother’s Day photo and a video that showed Kate and Prince William at a farm shop following the release of an edited image, the public have allegedly lost trust of the monarchy, says Piers Morgan.
Piers said that the Palace messed things up by releasing that heavily edited photo on Mother’s Day in a failed attempt to make people believe Kate is doing well. TMZ spoke with many insiders and experts for its documentary TMZ Investigates: Where is Kate Middleton? “None of it makes sense,” Piers said to the camera in his sit down interview. Speaking about the altered photo, he added: “The people I blame for this are the palace press team. What were they thinking passing this on to the world’s media without making basic checks?”
He believes the palace should have not shared the photo with so many edits. “The very last thing you should do is issue a picture which has 16-17 edits to it that we know of,” Piers said. Then the confession from Kate that she was the one who altered the picture had Piers wondering more. “Why is she taking all this time on a Friday night to self edit a picture that is extremely important?” He asked the camera.
You wonder if everything is fine,” he said, “Seems very strange that you’d go through all those edits.” Piers also mentioned he had a close source to the Princess of Wales who said that Kate looked nothing like the photo at the time it was supposedly taken. “I don’t believe that’s an accurate depiction of how she looked at the time,” Piers said.
David Jorgenson, a senior reporter for The Washington Post, went on to say the Palace has not addressed why Kate appeared well walking with William this past weekend in Windsor, giving the public a sense of mistrust.
On Kate’s importance in the family, former butler to Princess Diana Paul Burrell also spoke on the latest headlines. He said: “I want them to pull through this crisis. I want them to show the world that everything is well within the house of Wales and I want them to go forward because they are our hope for the future. Without them – without Kate – the Royal Family is finished.”
Royal correspondent, Ellie Hall, also observed a photo of Kate, when she was spotted with her mother in the car and pointed a number of things with the Princess of Wales’ appearance like her sunglasses, hair and face features/ Kate has been at the center of attention after she has taken a break from her Royal duties and stepped out of the limelight following her abdominal surgery.
Despite reassurances from Kensington Palace that her recovery is coming along well, fans are devising conspiracy theories that the Duchess of Wales is “missing.” The theories started when she uploaded a photo on Mother’s Day that was later given a “kill notice” by major photo agencies due to the amount of photoshop errors.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, Kate said: “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.
