GB News viewers are supporting the Princess of Wales after her Mother's Day photo blunder.

Six major photo agencies recalled the picture after claims were made that it had been digitally altered.

Kate, 42, then took to social media to explain what had happened.

One wrote: "So Kate is sitting around recovering from her surgery and thinks what a nice thing it might be to post a family photo celebrating Mothering Sunday, a bit of cheer in less than happy times, and wants it to be the best it can be.

"Shame on anyone that sees this for anything less than a caring, thoughtful gesture.

"Sending lots of Healing, Love and Support to our lovely Catherine.

"Who cares about the photo, get well soon we all miss you. X."

Another added: "Sending love and best wishes to our Kate and asking the media who are the creators of this conspiracy to leave this lovely lady alone."

Similarly, a royal fan said: "Poor Kate leave her alone, how many of those who criticise Kate would like to be constantly criticised themselves after having had major surgery?

"It’s no one’s business but her own as to what she has had done, give her time to recover so she can be our beautiful princess again who we are rightly so proud of."
