Blake Lively playfully teases Kate Middleton over Photoshop mishap.
The Upper East Side’s queen bee seems to be commenting on the controversy surrounding the Princess of Wales.
Blake Lively appeared to mock Kate Middleton after her Mother’s Day U.K. photo was removed from news agencies on March 10 for being “manipulated.”
“I’m thrilled to share this new photo I just took today,” the Gossip Girl star captioned an Instagram photo of her head superimposed on a distorted woman’s body lounging by a pool, holding one of her Betty Buzz drinks. Playfully referencing rumors about Kate’s whereabouts, Blake added in the March 15 post, “Now you know why I’ve been MIA.”
The 36-year-old also mentioned that she is working on four new products for her beverage brand, including two mocktails.
Meanwhile, the Betty Buzz account commented under the picture, “Haters will say it’s photoshop.”
Fans applauded Blake for cleverly addressing the conspiracy theories surrounding Kate’s private recovery from abdominal surgery, which were sparked when the royal admitted to altering her family portrait.
