At the beginning of the week, Kate Middleton put an end to the rumor mill, revealing in a video that she had cancer. But despite the painful news, conspiracy theorists continue to question the authenticity of the video, either claiming that it was published by Kensington Palace to throw off the public, or created by artificial intelligence.
On social networks, one surfer wrote: "This video of Kate Middleton is based on AI, but people from the public who are not familiar with the technology will be easily fooled." He continued to strengthen his claim, saying that, "the background is too blurry and doesn't move, and the wind doesn't move a petal or a blade of grass. Nothing is real."
Another user said it was fake due to Kate having a lighter eye shade than her real one. Yet another pointed out the stripes on her sweater, which are strangely reflected on the bench she is sitting on. Even among fans of the royal family, the video was analyzed with great attention.
Celebrities apologize for doubting Kate
Despite the conspiracies, people around the world are apologizing for doubting the credibility of the Royal Palace. Speculations surrounding the Duchess of Wales swept away millions who are now trying to make amends for their "sins."
Actress Blake Lively posted an Instagram story in which she wrote: "I made a silly post around the ‘photoshop fails’ frenzy, and oh man, that post has me mortified today." "I'm sorry. Sending love and best wishes to you all always," she concluded.
