Princess Catherine apologizes for 'confusion' over edited family photo
By: Annie Martin (UPI)
Oh, thank God! The world is safe from the manipulating deception of retouched family photos. And the deceit was to celebrate Mother's Day, no less. How rude.
Now if reality had been manipulated with hormone therapy, transition surgery, and thirty pounds of makeup then there wouldn't have been any controversy whatsoever. Gotta have those priorities straight.
March 11 (UPI) -- Britain's Princess Catherine apologized Monday for "confusion" over a family photo in celebration of British Mother's Day that she now says was edited before being released by Kensington Palace.
The princess of Wales, who married Prince William in 2011, said in a statement that she edited a photo that has since been pulled from circulation by several news organizations.
"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," Catherine said.
On Sunday, Kensington Palace released the photo of the princess and her three children, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.
"Thank you for your kind wishes and continued support over the last two months. Wishing everyone a Happy Mother's Day," the caption reads.
The photo was credited as being taken by William and marked the first official image of Catherine since she underwent abdominal surgery in January.
Many noticed irregularities about the photo and speculated it had been digitally manipulated, leading news agencies to retract the image.
