Major news agencies refuse to release first official photo of Kate Middleton, suspecting it is fake. Since her hospitalization last January, the Princess of Wales has not reappeared publicly.

The photo in question shows Kate smiling, sitting on a rattan chair on a terrace with her three children on the occasion of Mother's Day. But a detailed examination shows that Princess Charlotte's left hand is misaligned with the sleeve of her vest, which casts doubt on the authenticity of the entire photo.
