The British Monarchy

Spot on!

We had a professional family portrait done and the photographer called to say that he had thought he had a perfect choice (of the dozens he took), but my daughter had a better smile in another virtually identical photo. We visited the studio and he asked us which one of 3 we liked better. Without knowing, we chose the one where he had superimposed the better pic of my daughter’s smile onto the family portrait. It was literally impossible to tell.

To this day, she doesn’t know!

What you didn’t tell us was that the photographer airbrushed you out of the photo.
 
Surely it’s a perfect time to reintroduce the Royal it’s a knockout but make it more a mix of tekeshis castle and hunger games.
Would swell the coffers whilst getting rid of one or two of the wrong’uns.

Some good points in there , forgive my short reply to it . I think we dont need to know what her operation was as she is entitled to privacy . We know charlie has cancer but not which type or stage it is at , his health news has been managed ok

I dont understand the editing of pictures , especially when they are official royal images that are part of the monachy's history, whether she likes that or not . This was stupid on her and williams part , he took the photo after all , i dont think she needs the stress and no doubt lesson learned

Naive at most. Nothing more sinister than that. For the press to run with this the way they have tells me they have learned nothing from the last 30 years.

The Press know their audience. It’s why it’s the top story with all the red tops who have turned a lot of the nation into brain dead reality tv loving voyeurs.
The rest of us just roll our eyes and move on with our day.
 
The late Queen didn't tell everyone about her health issues. Charles has told people of his because of the reluctance of many males to have the necessary checks done and so he has highlighted the benefits.

To my mind their health is their business until they decide otherwise.

The photo thing sounds a bit like me trying to alter/enhance photos.....I wouldn't even know how to do it really or which programme to use. :-) A bit of a clanger dropped on that but not the end of the world. She's recovering from a major operation and is probably not feeling 100% so wasn't concentrating properly maybe. Let's face it the woman has 3 school age children mithering her as well. :-)
Been there, done that, worn the tee shirt as they say. Mine was more when I was baking and forgot to put the flour/butter/salt in maybe. *lol* easily done.

Genuine question, as I am interested in your thoughts:

Would you say there is a reasonable expectation for the Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister, the Foreign, Home, Defence Secretaries, and the Chancellor to disclose in advance a major operation that could have them in hospital for several weeks, during which time they may not be able to carry out their duties (in part or whole), or may potentially be doing so without full control of faculties?

But who is instructing them to make it the headline story?
