‘Where is Kate Middleton?': Piers Morgan faces backlash for broadside at Princess in TMZ docu
LONDON, ENGLAND: In the latest TMZ documentary, named 'TMZ Investigates: Where is Kate Middleton?', Piers Morgan talked about when Kate Middleton aka the Princess of Wales posed for her viral edited Mother's Day photo. He doesn't seem convinced that the photograph was taken recently.
In a clip from the special, the journalist can be heard saying, “I’m not convinced that the picture of Kate herself was taken the week before."
“I know somebody who saw her that week who said she didn’t look anything like the picture. It was just somebody who bumped into her who knows her who said she looked a lot thinner than she did in the picture," he further added.
Morgan mentioned, “Kate is pretty thin anyway and she was described to me as being thinner than usual [after her January abdominal surgery].”
The 'Piers Morgan Uncensored' host expressed his doubts regarding the authenticity of the recent family photo featuring Middleton, who at the age of 42, appears to be radiating with excellent health.
In the snap shared, Kate Middleton, 42, can be seen posing alongside her children Prince George, aged 10, Princess Charlotte, aged 8, and Prince Louis, aged 5.
“I do not believe that’s an accurate reflection of how she accurately looks at the time,” he quipped.
Now, the netizens are bashing Piers Morgan for calling out Kate Middleton in the TMZ documentary.
An X user said, "No thanks. He's vile." Followed by a user who penned, "Opportunist." Another user chimed in, "He is such a damn hypocrite. He says to leave Catherine alone, yet stokes the fires of this nonsense. LEAVE CATHERINE ALONE!!!"

The day after, Kate Middleton admitted to occasionally dabbling in editing as an “amateur photographer” exploring new techniques and styles in her photographic endeavors. The Princess of Wales issued an apology on social media regarding the edited Mother's Day picture.
"Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother's Day," she wrote.
What has Kate Middleton been up to lately?
As per the New York Post, Kensington Palace has officially confirmed that Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, has gradually resumed her work responsibilities after a lengthy period of recuperation following her surgery.
