Internet slams Blake Lively as she issues apology to cancer-stricken Kate Middleton over photoshop joke
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Blake Lively was under the radar of numerous social media users who criticized her after she offered her apologies to Kate Middleton for making a joke about the recent photoshop scandal involving the Princess of Wales.
Recently, Lively has been making headlines for discussing the one rule she and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, always follow to keep their relationship strong. She shared in a recent interview that they agreed early on to prioritize their relationship over their careers.
Lively and Reynolds are known as one of Hollywood's most enduring and lovable couples.
Blake Lively apologizes to Kate Middleton
According to the Daily Mail, Lively recently apologized for a comment she made about Middleton just days before the royal announced she was diagnosed with cancer. Lively, known for her role in 'Gossip Girl,' faced criticism online from Middleton's fans after she promoted her drinks range on March 13.
In her post, she referenced the photo-editing controversy surrounding a family picture of Middleton and her children released by Kensington Palace on Mother's Day.
Several outlets criticizing the Kensington family for editing the image later removed it.
In a now-deleted post promoting her drinks brand, Betty Buzz, Lively shared a photoshopped picture of herself with the caption, "I’m so excited to share this new photo I just took today to announce our 4 new @bettybuzz & @bettybooze products! Now you know why I’ve been MIA."
Following Middleton's announcement about her cancer diagnosis, Lively posted an apology on her Instagram stories. She expressed regret for her earlier post and sent love and well wishes.
Lively wrote, "I'm sure no one cares today but I feel like I have to acknowledge this. I made a silly post around the "photoshop fails" frenzy, and oh man, that post has me mortified today. I'm sorry. Sending love and well wishes to all, always ❤️."
Middleton's revelation about her cancer diagnosis came in an emotional video filmed at Windsor. She explained that her absence from public life was due to undergoing chemotherapy, shocking both her family and fans.
As reported by the Daily Mail, just days before, Middleton had been seen smiling with Prince William as they left a farm shop near their Windsor home.
