They’ve also pointed out that the picture looks suspiciously like one from a previous magazine shoot, which has spawned a theory that Kate didn’t even pose for the picture. Princess Kate has publicly apologized for photoshopping the pic, but - given that we’ve barely seen or heard from her since Christmas - we’re wondering what exactly is happening behind the walls of Windsor Castle.

| 0:31.0 | then it's like, I don't know, it just feels like lying at that point. I just I don't I don't care enough I guess yeah like I just I'm not going to be able to do it in real life, so well you could with plastic surgery. |
