In the wake of a photo-editing controversy, Kate Middleton is reportedly contemplating ending a cherished personal tradition of sharing family photos due to overwhelming media scrutiny.
The Princess of Wales faced criticism after acknowledging alterations to her first official portrait with her children since her abdominal surgery. This image was shared on the Waleses' social media platform last week.
Prince William and the royal family have also faced scrutiny, with accusations of sacrificing the future Queen of England's reputation to protect their own.
Consequently, major news agencies, including Associated Press and Reuters, have withdrawn their trust in Kensington Palace as a reliable source.
Discussing the unfolding situation on a recent episode of the Royal Beat podcast, royal expert Russell Myers speculated on how this controversy might influence Kate's future choices regarding sharing family moments.
"It would be truly unfortunate if Kate refrains from sharing any more family photos," Myers commented.
"For years, we've enjoyed glimpses into their lives through pictures of the children on birthdays, Louis' first day at school, and their Christmas cards. If she opts out of this, it would be a significant loss," added the Daily Mirror’s royal editor.
