Kate Middleton publishes the photo of Prince Louis on social media: “It didn’t happen”

Since Kate Middleton broke her silence and, in a video lasting just a few minutes, announced to the whole world that she had been diagnosed with cancer and that she had started a cycle of preventive chemotherapy, nothing is known about how she really is. On the other hand, in the video message, you asked for privacy and respect. The tabloids, although they are attentive to updates, are trying to respect this appeal from the future queen. But there are new signs. A photograph of Prince Louis taken by his mother has been published to mark her son’s sixth birthday. After the controversy over Kate’s changes to a family photo taken five weeks ago on Mother’s Day, Kensington Palace has ensured that this image has not been retouched.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are grateful for the birthday messages for their son, a palace spokesperson says, and decided to publish the photo to thank everyone who has already sent him well wishes. The photograph of Louis, fourth in line to the throne, was taken in Windsor a few days ago, Kensington Palace specifies. Until this morning it was not at all certain that a photo of Louis would be published on his birthday, as the press is generally given access to an embargoed image of royal children before their birthdays, which is not happened. The smiling photo of the prince was posted on social media with the message: «Happy 6th birthday, Prince Louis! Thank you for all the good wishes today.”
