ABACA:
The actress had shared a photo of herself treated to promote her liquor brand, sparking a flood of comments. After announcing her battle with cancer, the Princess of Wales issued a public apology.
Many personalities have mocked the fiasco in terms of communicating about Kate Middleton’s health. On January 16, the Princess of Wales underwent abdominal surgery, which requires several months of recovery. But in early March, Kensington Palace released a fake photo to appease her fans, causing the opposite effect and leading to all sorts of conspiracy theories.

Photoshopped shot
While some worried (“Is the Princess of Wales dead?” some even wondered), others scoffed. Among them is actress Blake Lively, who shared a photoshopped photo to promote her drinks brand in mid-March that has since been deleted. Sitting by the pool and giving an extremely disproportionate thumbs up, she wrote: “I’m so excited to share this new photo I took today to introduce our new Betty Buzz and Betty Booze products. Now you know why I was absent.”
The post sparked a flood of angry comments. “You’re kicking another woman when she’s down, that’s very brave of you Blake.” “And you said that women should support each other”; “When we make fun of a sick woman, karma is waiting just around the corner.” After Kate Middleton’s cancer announcement on Friday, March 22, actress Blake Lively took to social media to express her disappointment and apology.

“I’m sure nobody thinks about it today, but I feel like I have to admit it. I did a stupid post about the Photoshop fail frenzy and oh my, that post made me cringe today. Sorry. Sending love and best wishes to you all,” she wrote in a story, followed by an emotional image of a broken heart. A widely accepted mea culpa.
