Following backlash and concerns of image accuracy, the royal Mother's Day photo was pulled from a number of photo agencies on Monday. The image of the Princess of Wales and her three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, was shared on social media to mark the day following weeks of speculation about Kate Middleton's health and recovery.
The Princess underwent abdominal surgery in January, and the Palace stated that they would not issue any updates about Kate - offering only that she was expected to return to work after Easter. However, speculation over her health grew rapidly online and eventually the Palace issued a response to the 'wild conspiracy theories' that had started circling - including claims from international journalists that Kate had been in a coma, something they have since refuted.
