More Rumors Surround Princess Kate After Family Photo Released

The question as to the health of Catherine, Princess of Wales (Kate Middleton), started to explode this week after a new photo was released for distribution over the weekend.

Rumors have been flying ever since it was announced that Kate had to have stomach surgery.

She has been seen only once since, and that was only recently, in a car with her mother driving.

The picture released this weekend has only poured gasoline on rumors that something is amiss with Kate.

Rumors Fly

A picture of Kate and her children was posted on Instagram thanking everyone for their support as well as wishing everyone a “Happy Mother’s Day.”

Several prominent agencies decided to pull the picture from their publications after examining the photo.

For instance, AP issued its kill notice on the picture, adding, “At closer inspection it appears the source has manipulated the image. No replacement photo will be sent. Please remove it from all platforms, including social, where it may still be visible.”

AP specifically noted the alignment of Princess Charlotte’s left hand.

More agencies followed suit, ordering the picture removed from their sites and refusing to distribute it.

Piers Morgan observed, “If, as this astounding AP kill notice claims, the Palace manipulated that Kate photo to quash all the wild conspiracy theories about her, then they’ll have just made things 100x worse.”

When inquiries were made with Kensington Palace about manipulating the photo, no comment was given…

The Palace had responded to previous requests, stating that it has already issued a statement that updates regarding Kate would only be given as needed after Kate had been removed from a website itinerary.

That being the upcoming celebration for King Charles’ birthday, where Kate has been scheduled for an event, but was later removed.

It was then reported that Kate overseeing the ceremony was scheduled without consulting Kensington Palace.

The world being what it is today, now the rumors are really flying and the only thing that will convince people that Kate is okay is for her to do a live appearance. Save that, these rumors and conspiracy theories are going to continue to gain traction.
