Princess Kate has issued an apology for editing a family photo that was intended to calm concern about her health. The photo, taken by Prince William, was released by Kensington Palace on Mother’s Day in Britain. However, concerns about digital manipulation led five major news agencies, including The Associated Press, to withdraw the image. Speculation about Kate’s recent surgery and recuperation only intensified as a result. In a social media post, Kate admitted to occasionally experimenting with editing and expressed her apologies for any confusion caused by the photo. AP retracted the photo due to inconsistencies and manipulation that did not meet their photo standards.
