Amidst the recent controversy surrounding her edited Mother's Day photo, Kate Middleton is reportedly experiencing silent tears, deeply affected by the "upsetting" social media attacks.
The mother-of-three has been left "shellshocked" by the backlash following the photo blunder. Despite efforts by the Prince and Princess of Wales' social media accounts to share Kate's photo with her children in an attempt to dispel rumors about the future Queen's health, the criticism and subsequent apology from Kate only intensified the situation.
"Everyone, including the princess, is somewhat stunned by the turn of events. A mistake was made, but she has taken responsibility and apologized," a royal insider shared with The Mail. "The entire ordeal has been quite distressing. However, many believe it's time to acknowledge the error was made with good intentions, as was her apology, and to move forward."
Expressing concern over the potential impact of social media attacks on mental well-being, a medical specialist stated, "Such experiences can be agonizing, causing significant emotional pain and feelings of humiliation. Those under such pressure may even suffer from panic attacks."
Meanwhile, Kensington Palace has maintained its initial announcement from January, confirming that the Princess of Wales had undergone "planned abdominal surgery" and would not resume official duties until after Easter.
