Thanks for the link Is she pregnant in those pics?

Since those pics are from the portrait unveiling the other day. And she is currently pregnant. Then by reason, yes, she is pregnant in those pictures take in the beautiful red dress.

How could she NOT be pregnant in pics from the other day?

I think the Queen had something to do with his. After William and Kate decided not to go to the Queen's Christmas function, I think the Queen did this to embarrass her forever. And Kate has to be gracious about it whether she likes it or not.

The Queen won't live forever.
To me, Kate looks like she's smirking.

I think it looks just like her.

I think that the portrait is lovely, all but the smile which looks forced, her cheeks are too prominent for the lack of it. However, the more I look at it I find there is a glow there and I like much better compared to the many stern portraits that the British Royalty are known for.

I don't think it's too bad, but she definitely looks better in photo's. I think she looks much older in the portrait, like an age progression of how she will look in 10-15 years.

I don't like it. She just looks like a serious, not so fun, older woman. Strange smile and wrinkly eyes. Not like the Duchess, to me.

If you read the captions under the pictures of her it says; "One to show the grandchildren? The pregnant Duchess" <snip>

if you look at the photo he was using, it's almost an exact match. I don't think he should have added the lines around her eyes though, that's not very accurate. And I do feel it could have been much better, she really is a very beautiful woman (I didn't realize she was 31) and her smile is just beautiful, I hope she gets a redo.

I think so, too.

BTW, her name is no longer Kate Middleton. That was her maiden name. She is married now. I don't understand why people & the press don't call her by her new name of Duchess Kate. Or better yet, when will they call her by new name? Its been over 1.5 yrs already.

Its not flattering and doesn't capture her spunk and personality. What a mess! The pic really isn't good.

I'm not sure that is true. Didn't they invite her parents to their Christmas home? That was sort of unprecedented.

Kate is a young, beautiful woman and the painting does make her look 20 years older. Having said that, 20 years from now, she will still be a beautiful woman.

They shouldn't have wrinkled the skin under her eyes (and made her have dark circles as well). Also, she smiles with her teeth showing - part of what is nice about her is that she smiles. This constipated smirk thing is not what people like about her. It is not representative of her official portrait so - that is what people are upset about. Give her a real smile!

I just think it's creepy

 

[ilovepcot]

I feel sad when I look at it.

I think it's actually very accurate. Kate does have wrinkles and lines, in part because she is so thin. (Not a bad thing at all, just a fact.) We are so used to seeing airbrushed and touched up perfection, that I think not seeing it shocks us.

 

[mike92]

I agree...I think that's what she'll look like in 20 years.

I don't think Duchess Kate would be correct- The Duchess of Cambridge is her title. Frankly, I'm not sure what her last name would be Mountbatten-Windsor?
