However, when a royal wedding photo of the bride appeared on the May 9th collectors' issue of Grazia magazine, it looked as if Kate's waist wasn't only slim, it had nearly disappeared.
The cover quickly drew public outrage and a complaint about the inaccuracy of the photo was registered with Britain’s Press Complaints Commission. After an investigation the commission ruled that the magazine had in fact doctored the image. Grazia has confirmed the allegations.
A spokesperson at the magazine explained that the re-touching SNAFU all started after the Grazia staff were unable to locate a solo shot of Middleton in her wedding dress. Magazine editors had trouble finding an image of the Duchess where she wasn’t linked arm-in-arm with William. You’ll notice her arm is reaching up in the photo on the left. So they decided to create something that wasn’t there. The Complaints Commission reported “This involved mirroring one of the duchess’s arms and an inadvertent result of the change was the slimming of her waist”.
Grazia made an apologetic statement, saying, “we did not purposely make any alterations to the Duchess of Cambridge’s image to make her appear slimmer, and we are sorry if this process gave that impression.” Though the whole scandal is actually rather silly, in a world where magazines are constantly depicting real women as thinner, lighter-skinned, and more wrinkle-free than they actually are, we can't help but appreciate Grazia's owning up to its error.
"Crazy About Pippa " documentary claim that Kate Middleton's sister Pippa padded her now-famous backside to fill out her bride'smaid dress. She told that her behind has never looked as impressive as it did at the royal wedding ,Really ?Perhaps it's time we kindly step back,give the Middleton's sister a little privacy, and a focus on our body parts.
