Quick Glance: Kate Middleton Apologizes for Doctored Image
- Kate Middleton apologized for editing an image of herself and her children, followed by a carefully curated appearance in a car alongside her husband Prince William, failing to quell speculation about her health and marriage.

- The discussions surrounding Kate's health and marriage intensified due to the doctored image, and the palace's communication seemed chaotic, fueling increased public curiosity.
