Kate Middleton ‘murdered market’ for real paparazzi photos


The Duchess of Cambridge is killing the paparazzi market with her candid photographs after taking inspiration from the similar approach of Princess Victoria of Sweden, according to a royal expert.

Kate, 38, who currently lives at her Norfolk home in Anmer Hall with Prince William and their children, Prince George, 6, Princess Charlotte, 5, and Prince Louis, 2, excited the fans this weekend with a selection of new family photos.

Released to commemorate her husband’s 38th birthday and Father’s Day, both of which occurred on Sunday, the images showed the Duke of Cambridge lovingly hugging his father, Prince Charles, and talking to his children.

Real expert Camilla Tominey claims that intimate photos like these have “killed, stone-dead, the paparazzi photo market,” and suggested that Kate has been pulling out a sheet from the European royalty book.

Writing in the Daily Telegraph, he explained, “ Why would newspapers or magazines want to post grainy images of royalty in private when they are willing to serve sharp Instagram-style photos?

Of course there is still, and always will be, a place for experienced men and women to capture the great real moments. However, these candid camera photos have always been what the public has wanted.

“… When it comes to seeing” royal “royalty behind her public figures, the Duchess is quickly becoming the leading chronicler of the modern-day royal monarchy.”

She said Kate’s control of the actual images by offering candid glances behind the palace gates was inspired by how Victoria, the Crown Princess of Sweden, handles the media regarding her children’s photography.

The mother of two and an apparent heir to the Swedish throne published her own photographs of her first child, Estelle, now eight years old, who was born a year before Prince George in 2012.

A storm came down with the public, and according to Ms. Tominey, enthusiastic hobbyist photographer Kate soon realized how she could offer her children a peek without putting them in the spotlight.

The comments come when real sources told People magazine that Kate “is enjoying the role more than ever” despite the “phenomenal workload.”

‘Those who know her say that there is a real core of force, and she set out to do the job. But at the same time, she would have to be superhuman not to feel the pressure, ” said Sarah Gristwood, author of Elizabeth: The Queen and the Crown.

A source close to the royal house added that the pressure is on Kate and Prince William when they return to their public engagements after the shutdown.

‘[But] if anything, she is enjoying the role more than ever. And it will do its best, ” said a source close to the publication.
