Catherine, Princess of Wales has issued an apology to clear up “confusion” over her Mother’s Day picture.
The 42-year-old royal found herself at the centre of a row over a snap showing her with her three children which was released on Sunday (10.03.24) after it was withdrawn from circulation by a number of picture agencies amid concerns it had been altered – and Catherine has now said sorry and admitted she “occasionally” dabbles with “editing” her snaps.
A statement released by the Princess explained: “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.”
The picture in question was released by Kensington Palace to mark Mother’s Day on Sunday (10.03.24) and showed Princess Catherine embracing her three children Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, eight, and five-year-old Prince Louis.
It was the first official picture of the royal since she underwent surgery in January and stepped away from the spotlight during her recovery.
The row focused on a number of alleged changes including the depiction of Princess Charlotte’s sleeve amid claims the young royal’s arm looked misaligned in the picture.
