Unlike you and me, my partner of 12 years, Jem, is not the type who likes to keep up with the royal family, but when he came home from work the other day and demanded to know more about why the Princess of Wales had been embroiled in a “photoshopping scandal” – his words, not mine – I suddenly realised how far and wide this drama had spread. This week, royal expert and author Phil Dampier shares his thoughts exclusively with Woman’s Day, shedding light on the behind the-scenes pressure Kate and William are currently facing and asking how on earth something like this could happen to a family with the world’s best everything in its reach. It’s an interesting time indeed. I hope you enjoy the issue and have…

It was meant to be a wholesome family photo of the Princess of Wales and her three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, to mark Mother’s Day in the UK and to reassure the concerned public that Kate was recovering well after her abdominal surgery, as promised. And it worked for a short time – until photo agencies around the world discovered that the picture, taken by Prince William at their home in Windsor and released by the palace, had been doctored. Since then, the family photo has only thrown more fuel on the fire surrounding Kate’s mysterious two-and-a-half-month absence from public life. In addition to being one of the biggest royal PR gaffes in recent history, the photo scandal has also turned the spotlight undesirably onto speculation…
The Wales’ family picture was “killed” by major photo agencies around the world, including Reuters, the Associated Press and Getty, who swiftly pulled the digitally altered image from their libraries. But what exactly was changed? The photo has quickly become one of the most dissected by online sleuths and photography experts, with many going down a rabbit hole of theories. A missing part of eightyear-old Charlotte’s left wrist is one of the biggest editing fails, along with a blurred pattern on five-year-old Louis’s jumper and a skewed zipper on Kate’s jacket – in total sleuths have said there are at least 16 editing fails. One popular theory making the rounds was that Kate’s face was taken from her 2016 Vogue cover, while another is that the picture was snapped last…
