Royal Butler weighs in on Kate Middleton's Photoshop failure
of Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales She made headlines earlier this week after sharing a photo of herself with her children on Mother's Day, publicly apologizing for a Photoshop fail. Duchess Kate has three children with her husband Prince William: Prince George (10), Princess Charlotte (8), and Prince Louis (5).
King Charles' former butler Grant Harrold said the photo-editing failure had raised concerns about the health of King Charles, who was admitted to hospital for abdominal surgery.
“It's causing concern because everyone is overanalyzing it at the moment and everyone is worried about her and trying to see if there are any signs,” he said, according to the New York Post. “I'm doing it,” he said.
“If she hadn't taken the time to do this, the photo editing really wouldn't have been such a big deal,” Harold continued.
“They could have just acknowledged that they edited the photo a little bit and that was it,” he added.
This was announced after sources close to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle considered the situation.
