UK media ‘very protective’ of Kate and William amid relationship speculation

Royal expert Kinsey Schofield says the media in the United Kingdom is “very protective” of Prince William and Princess Catherine amid speculation about the pair’s relationship following the photo debacle. Kensington Palace has faced growing pressure to release the original Mother’s Day photograph after it was revealed the image had been doctored. The Princess of Wales apologised for the “confusion” it had caused and insisted she was the one who edited the photo. However, people have noticed that Princess Catherine was not wearing her wedding ring in the published photo. “We do want to see more of the Princess of Wales, she is polling-wise the most popular royal not only in the UK but in the United States,” Ms Schofield told Sky News Australia.
