After a doctored image and unsatisfying apology, the palace fell into a pattern familiar from Princess Diana and Meghan Markle: making a difficult situation worse.
Turns out not even the Oscars can bump Kate Middleton from the top of the pop-cultural conversation. On Sunday, a photo of Catherine, Princess of Wales, surrounded by her children and reportedly taken by her husband Prince William, was posted, along with a note signed 'C,' in honor of the U.K.'s Mothering Sunday.
Now it seems the palace has thrown poor Kate under the bus by releasing a sad, self-deprecating statement in which she took blame for the incident and said — I'm paraphrasing here — 'I'm just a sick, frazzled mum who's bad with technology. Sorry I made an already bad situation worse and further eroded the public's trust in the monarchy.
