Kate Middleton is one of the great protagonists of international news. Last weekend, Kensington Palace shared an image of the Princess of Wales and her three children on its social networks to celebrate Mother’s Day and silence rumors about the delicate state of health of Prince William’s wife after her mysterious operation in mid-January.
However, the result of this movement by the British royal house has been the opposite of what they expected. And after the publication of the controversial family image, hundreds of social media users and different media outlets began to claim that the snapshot had been manipulated.
The theory gained strength as the hours passed, and after the media commotion generated, Kate Middleton herself had to come out publicly to apologize. ”Like many other amateur photographers, I occasionally experiment with editing (…) I want to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday may have caused,” Prince William’s wife wrote sincerely.
In the midst of all this media earthquake, the Sonsoles Ónega program invited the Spanish Gustavo Egusquiza, journalist and friend of Kate Middleton, to its set this Wednesday. ”I met them in the United Kingdom when I was a student and I know a lot about both Kate and Guillermo’s personal circle,” he began by saying.
Regarding the controversy that had been generated by the retouched image, Gustavo Egusquiza assured that the communications department of Kensington Palace was managing this crisis very poorly. ”It’s damaging Kate Middleton’s image,” he confessed. ”I don’t know if she was the one who retouched the photo, but she is a very good photographer, with a degree in art history, she has done photography exhibitions (…) These errors surprise me a little. But well, when you are convalescing one can also make mistakes,” asserted the guest, who in turn confessed that the most important thing was to have transparency with the British people. ”For next time I recommend that you hire a photographer,” he explained.
Regarding the supposed marital crisis, the interviewee declared that they should be the ones who would have to give said news. ”Kate has made very few mistakes and she and Guillermo are a great team. And whether there is a crisis or not… What marriage does not go through a crisis?” He stated. ”There are rumors of infidelity on the part of Prince William,” he acknowledged. Regarding the controversial photo of the car, Kate Middleton’s friend claimed that the strangest thing was that the princess did not come out smiling on camera. ”Maybe she’s upset that she’s been forced to come out publicly,” he asserted.
