The Fuss Over The Royal Family Photo

A very unpleasant co ordinated attack on the Princess of Wales from press agencies because she has the temerity to publish photographs of her own family instead of using an overpaid professional .
Aimed at a woman who is recovering from serious surgery.
Quite despicable.
As for the couple at the farm shop: lookalikes.

That’s what I thought. I hadn’t looked at the heading. I just saw a fleeting picture and went to DH. Wow she looks a bit like the Princess of Wales.
That’s what will happen every time a photo is put on now, whoever has taken it.

Could you please tell me why you’d think they were lookalikes? Surely papers would be full of farm shop customers who had got a good look at them ? And what possible reason could there be for sending them out? Or was it just two lookalikes who went there off their own bat?
( Also, the best known Catherine lookalike has said it wasn’t her)

KP say it wasn’t look alikes- it’s all weird . I feel for Catherine, it’s hard not to conclude her PR people aren’t up to the job

Have KP actually said it wasn’t lookalikes Iam? I can’t find anything to say they have commented one way or the other. It’s all very odd, I don’t think it looks like Catherine at all, but I’m not buying into any conspiracies either.

For pity's sake, can't some of you please stop all this and draw a line under the whole upsetting saga. Why are you still going on about who was at the farm shop? Nobody cares!!! What the posters of nasty comments need to do is rein their necks in and eat a very large helping of humble pie.

Well said.

Sarnia, my post was 24 hours before Catherine’s statement. It wasn’t ‘nasty’ and I don’t need to wind my neck in

King Charles looks so sad and tired today (in the papers)

Or was it just two lookalikes who went there off their own bat?
I wouldn't put anything past the press.

The couple in the photograph I saw , possibly courtesy of a poster on this thread , did not look like the Wales.
Why would there be lookalikes?
Fun?
A tryout?
Staged for the benefit of the press or by the press?
An actual appearance to calm speculation?
Why would the person who saw them film them, then sell it to the Sun?
(Let me guess: money.)
The whole thing is horrid particularly now the circumstances of the Princess of Wales illness are known.

If it wasn't them, then I expect in all probablity it was The Sun, eazybee.
If it was them, then it was an unpleasant thing to do, photographing them then selling it to a paper like that.

The Sun was critical of the coverage of Catherine not being seen

Have just read reports that there has been Russian malicious manipulation of the 'facts' around the 'photo' and the 'look- a-likes'. So, fess up, how many of you were scammed into believing all the nonsense? How many of you have been played, and are any of you Players?

Don't believe everything you read, Maremia!

good one Callistemon. Yes, bad BBC for suggesting that the Russians would ever interfere in our affairs. I mean, have they ever done so before?
And yes, I shall beware of any promises made to me on the side of a bus.
