It’s Business As Usual in the Princess of Wales’s Wardrobe
Introduction
Woman posts Photoshopped picture on Instagram; woman is vilified in the comments section. In this modern, FaceTuned media landscape, this could have referred to any number of Kardashian-Jenners, but in this instance, the woman in question is a member of the royal family. During an already tumultuous time for The Firm, with conspiracy theories swirling around the Princess of Wales—who is on hiatus from public duties to recover from an operation—the picture editing disaster was a PR blow to an already wounded institution.
Latest Sighting
Eight days after the Mother’s Day post debacle, which saw Kate admit to “occasionally experimenting with editing”—and weeks into X’s #katemiddletonmissing hysteria—the world has had its first full body (!) sighting of the Princess since Christmas. The internet once again lost its mind when she was seen buying groceries.
Analysis of the Sighting
The image of Kate and William picking up supplies at the picturesque Windsor Farm Shop has been analyzed by body language experts already. The Prince and Princess seemed to be in good spirits basking in the spring sunshine, putting paid to rumours that they might have separated. Kate looked healthy, she seemed to be in classic downtime mode, wearing black leggings, a zip-up hoodie, trainers, and sports socks pulled up.
