  • Today we're discussing the conspiracy theories surrounding Kate Middleton's mysterious absence from the public eye. A strangely edited photo sparked questions about where she is after Kensington Palace announced she would be out for a few weeks due to a minor surgery, and now the photo has even prompted the Associated Press to put out an international "kill notice," claiming the photo was manipulated and should not be distributed. We dive into all the theories, from body doubles to bad Photoshop, and explain why it matters.

    Why don't we leave Catherine alone and let her heal? Her health is none of our business, she does not belong to us. Catherine has been one of the most classy, kind Royals. She obviously had major surgery and deserves privacy for as long as she needs it. If she never discloses what surgery she had, thats her perogative. Pray for her health and William who has both his wife and his father needing medical intervention.

  • @janac407
    @janac407 Před 3 měsíci +36

    The start of rumours about William’s infidelity can be traced to Meghan Markle. Catherine is friends with Rose and they were seen and pictured together multiple times. Her sister just called her baby Rose and I don’t think she would do that if there was any affair.
    I personally don’t believe any wild theories. I think Catherine’s surgery was very serious and the recovery is hard. She might have lost a lot of weight or just doesn’t want to release any pictures of herself where she looks ill. She asked for 3 months off and people can’t just leave her alone. I think it’s very sad. She never asked for time off before and now she is being bullied into releasing photos and appearing in public or making videos to prove that she is alive.

    So, my personal opinion on the Mother's Day photo is that they took several photos and patched them all together. It's very difficult to get three children to look at the camera properly, and smile nicely, at the same time. A slight head tilt, a shoulder leaning... and it can cause you have to edit significantly around to meld them together. If she's truly recovering from surgery it may have been the best she could do at this time and she just wanted to share something.
    But I guess if I had to choose a body double, I'd pick her sister.

    • @eviedp1

      THIS!! Those "errors" in the Kate pic are very typical for that kind of stitching. We do our own family photos and for "nice pictures" (aka Christmas Card pic) we often stitch different shots from the same pose to make sure the kids are all looking, making nice faces, etc. Or I take a pose that my hair isn't blowing across my face and stitch it into another shot. It certainly is very hard to get one perfect shot. This is something all photographers do with family photos and takes skill to make it look seamless. It's not EASY to do that kind of edit, using layers & masks, because kids, hair, hands, and clothing move! But it's possible for someone who has some photoshop skill. You have to make sure you "catch" all those areas though because it's easy to accidentally leave a bit here from the other shot. So that part is not out of the ordinary at all , especially since it's a group shot and there are children. The only odd thing is I highly doubt Kate does her own photo editing, and also I also doubt that her own personal photo would be allowed to be released if it wasn't perfectly edited.

      I really don’t believe she insisted on or made edits. It doesn’t seem she even posed for the photo, so I’m really concerned folks are working against her. And it saddens me that they’d allow her take the fall, as the actual sick person, because her husband and representatives will not take ownership. Pray for her peace and recovery.

    • @janac407

      I have nothing against her posting a photo, but what I’m saying is instead of posting a badly edited one, just post an older family photo and say something like “I’m still recovering, enjoy a oldie but a goodie Mother’s Day photo.” Something is off here and I hope she is okay

      Right?! It almost seems purposeful. Any editor would notice those things immediately. And using such a public photo that could be easily found seems like it wanted to be found?

These mistakes are extremely beginner and are bound to be noticed by anyone with a trained eye. Very odd.

    I don’t care if she never addresses the public again and wants to maintain privacy for the remainder of her life, but I do wanna know why that photo is so weird in so many unnecessarily retouched areas. What is with the windows? What is with the clothing that looks disjointed in odd spots. Why was this even put out? Was this some sort of test to see how well ppl would receive a blatantly fake image? Bc to me, that speaks more volumes about the attempts to fool the masses on what is actually reality. If people are willing to take a fake photo at whatever value people in any sort of power deem, then you can change how the same people perceive the world around them. This wasn’t some vanity photoshop, this was just…other.

      Not sure that it is that they have "maintained a level of integrity" as much as the RF is trying desperately to manage the pr of their marriage issues, which, sadly, have been well known for years. I believe that Megan and Harry were rather "fed to the wolves" in the same way Diana was left unprotected and it appears that possibly Kate is meeting the same fate. Marriage partners into the RF are not blood and I have to remind myself, that in this family, possibly more than most european monarchies, bloodline and breeding matter GREATLY. Queen Elizabeth was famous for her belief in quality bloodlines and breeding. These women are not blood. They are disposable. Sad but true. Prince Phillip and Queen Elizabeth were cousins, albeit 3rd cousins, but I know many of my 3rd cousins and among royalty, that is kin.

    I won't allow anyone to gaslight me regarding Kate. If a senior royal takes a 6 month hiatus, people SHOULD be concerned. If Kate is well enough to take fake photos, she's well enough to sit at her computer and do a 5-minute video call assuring the public. She's more than capable of transmitting a written statement. At minimum her staff can do it for her! Something is definitely wrong.

    2 important things to add to the timeline is that in late Feb Thomas Langston who married Lady Gabriella Windsor a few years ago was found dead ruled suicide. What's odd about that?? Well he was Kate Middleton's sister, Pippa's, former fiance. Then also, a few days later Prince William dropped out of his Godfather's(The former King of Greece) memorial service where he was meant to give a speech just a half hour before it began which is SO unlike the Royals. A family emergency was stated as the reason. This is weird!

Maybe he just couldn’t face making a speech a day after Lady Gabriella’s husband committed suicide.

Let me guess: they're going to keep dragging out her "recovery" until the media and public forget about her, and then quietly announce she's "retiring from the public eye" to the countryside. Never to be seen again. "She's totally not dead, guys!"

    Kate often wears a cross. She lives her life in service to her husband, kids, and duty. I don't always follow the royals but sometimes I do because I just really find her classy and I love her style. But it's been a while because the people that talk about it usually drift into gossip. So although I hadn't heard this I'm not surprised. Last time I was listening they got into Meaghan and Harry are secretly getting a divorce. Not only did I not believe it but I think it's gross to makeup rumors about a family splitting. I don't like them either because of the way they used his family and continue to milk it but that doesn't make it ok to lie. And you shouldn't root for someones divorce. That's not just wrong it's sinful

    Thank you for sharing about Princess Kate because I totally agree, stuff didn't add up (obviously writing this after princess Kate released a video statement). There was obviously more happening. Sure she likes to take pictures...but what reason would she have to do so much Photoshop on a simple picture (using her face from a magazine??) from home and THEN not have the royal publicists pull the picture before it ever gets out because it's obviously doctored? Not physically seeing her in months plus that AND having her supposedly write an apology (again no one physically seeing her say it) of course is going to spark controversy! Then she actually shows up, which should have happened in the first place (or the royals be honest with the public) and all commentators crying about how badly she's been treated and let the poor girl alone because now we know she has cancer! 🤦‍♀️ I personally think the royals (whoever handled it all badly) were asking for this end result.

  • @catemoon
    @catemoon Před 3 měsíci +1

    I work in Photoshop and knew immediately that something was weird, in that the body is too small to be that of Kate’s. She is a tall woman. I hadn’t noticed all the other sloppy Photoshopped parts, given that the photo was reproduced so small. Obviously she is too ill to make a quick appearance, which would dispel every rumor. My guess is that all this speculation is largely due to the fact that she is well liked, and people are worried about her. I pray that she recovers.

    Kate's picture is not that weird to me. I'm a photographer and if I'm in a hurry all of those mistakes make sense. Sometimes kids just don't all smile in a picture and you end up piecing them all together or as a mom you decide you didn't look good that day and so you decide to use a different one. 🙃And putting a face on a head, removing the hat, and matching hair is actually not that hard. If just doing a fun pic for my family for something and not going to print it I might not take time to make sure every detail is perfect. Who knows why they released it or what might be going on but if you're just having fun editing this makes perfect sense to me.

      Princess Catherine serves at the expense and pleasure of the people of the UK. Secrecy will only serve to turn the people against this institution as most other nations have done. Are her advisors trying to end the monarchy by turning people against the family? The lack of transparency doesn't fit the image most people have formed about her, as a woman who selflessly serves her nation and her family. If she is struggling, her honesty will only serve to make her more relatable and sympathetic to her countrymen with similar struggles.

I’m sure they edited a few photos they took at the same time together (Maybe Kate went rouge and edited a few of the different shots together and had them post it) and now there’s a huge PR mess. People love to make big deals out of things that are not huge. I’m sure Kate is fine and enjoying a few moments of privacy and peace before her husband becomes a king. Taking advantage of some down time after a planned surgery (cosmetic or not) for intimate time with her family just seems so valid to me. Who cares if the photo was taken a different time or not?

    Also the small edits they didn’t catch. Maybe it’s like the movies. They catch the big stuff but the small stuff falls through the cracks.
