Prince William and Harry to ‘reunite’ at Princess Diana tribute

Prince William will be seen in public for the first time after the photo of wife, Kate Middleton, put out on Mother’s Day, caused controversy for its apparent editing. Kate was shown with her three children – Prince George, who is 10, Princess Charlotte, who is eight, and Prince Louis, who is five – and it was the first image of the Princess since she had an operation in January. In a statement addressing the editing accusations she said: “Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing.”

She also said: “I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother’s Day.”

PR expert Mark Borkowski has said this mix-up was a big error on the Royals’ part and thinks they should show the real photo to make things right again. He said: “It’s possible she’s at home playing with the computer and using an AI tool but if they’re really going to regain any sort of trust they should release the unedited photo. It can’t be that bad if they just made a few tweaks. I find they have risen to the challenge, provided the statement as an explanation – the question is, with all the conspiracy theories running around, is whether people believe it and I’m not sure that they will.”

He added: “That’s the issue, there doesn’t seem to be that much joined up strategic thinking at the heart of the Royal family at the moment, which leads to these problems where it’s a very difficult organisation to manage in terms of PR.”
