Innocent mistake or deliberate snub? Buckingham Palace reacts to allegations of ‘cropping’ Meghan from Harry’s photo
Buckingham Palace has rejected all the allegations of cropping Meghan Markle out of Prince Harry’s 40th birthday photo
Buckingham Palace has rejected all the allegations of cropping Meghan Markle out of Prince Harry’s 40th birthday photo that was posted on social media to extend good wishes to the Duke.
The 2018 photo that was posted on the family’s official accounts was used exactly as it was sent by a photo agency, a Buckingham Palace spokesperson told the Independent.
Meanwhile, Us Weekly reported that the Duke of Sussex was photographed from various angles, both with and without his spouse, and that the unaltered and cropped images were at the time shared with Getty Images. Royal insiders clarified the allegations that Markle was cropped out from the picture are unfounded.
“The Duchess was not cropped out by Buckingham Palace,” royal sources told Us Weekly. “The image was provided to them by a picture agency, as a complete stand-alone image of The Duke.”
