Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

I don't follow the family, but this has become at least mildly interesting.

She posted an "apology", but not the unedited image. Conspiracy thickens!

It's probably just unflattering. Likelyhood the Prince of Wales took multiple shots and the Princess edited the best ones of each child together with her phone. Children aren't easy to take pictures of.

I don't think we should really have a right to see her unflattering images. The media kind of overreacted, and she admitted to editing it and apologised for any concern.

So at best the original image is unflattering, at worst she has been abducted by deities and is now on Kolob
