Prince William and Kate Middleton have dominated the headlines this week as a result of the controversy surrounding their Mother's Day photo. The image, featuring the Princess of Wales and the couple's three children - Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - was posted on their social media account on Sunday to mark the occasion, and also arrived following weeks of speculation about Kate's health and recovery.
However, shortly after its release multiple photo agencies including Getty, Reuters and Associated Press issued a kill notice to remove the image with concerns over editing and 'manipulation'. A day later, Kate issued an apology and stated that 'like many amateur photographers, [she does] occasionally experiment with editing' and news agencies have confirmed they will now be reviewing all material issued by Kensington Palace.
