Kate Middleton surprised by backlash over Mother's Day photo in new biography
Kate Middleton's Mother's Day photo drama has resurfaced in a new royal biography. The photo, featuring Kate and her three children, was released on March 10, 2024, just before she announced her cancer diagnosis. It faced criticism for poor editing. The reaction from major photo agencies, which retracted the image, surprised Kate and Prince William. An insider described the agencies' response as exaggerated, noting the heightened media scrutiny surrounding Kate at the time. Following the incident, Kate issued a public apology on social media, acknowledging her editing efforts. Since then, the couple has continued to share family photos for special occasions, but without involving major photo agencies.
