Common sense minister Esther McVey has called on the royals to share an undoctored photo of Princess Kate. Kate has been subject to ongoing speculation in recent weeks over her health and whereabouts. It comes after she stepped back from royal duties following abdominal surgery in January, with her not due to return until after Easter. But online conspiracy theories escalated further last week after she shared a family photo to mark Mother's Day, which was later confirmed to have been edited.
Ms McVey echoed growing calls for Kensington Palace to release an unedited image of the Princess of Wales to end the ongoing controversy. Speaking on LBC's Cross Question with Iain Dale, she said: "Just take a photo and just put it out there. Don't change it. It's that simple. I know we all want to look better, but just do. She's a beautiful woman. She really does not need any enhancements. Just put a photo out there.
