The whole Kate Middleton missing conspiracy theory started about two weeks ago when Prince William canceled an appearance at his godfather's memorial service for "personal reasons."

Meanwhile, Kate hadn't been seen in months because she's recovering from abdominal surgery.

That canceled appearance and the lack of Kate's public apperances led to TONS of speculation about her whereabouts.

Some said she was Banksy.

Other people said she was just waiting for her bangs to grow out.

The Royal Palace has come out and said, "[The] Princess of Wales, who is recovering from abdominal surgery, continues to be doing well."

Then, last week, she was spotted in a car.

And now, the Prince and Princess of Wales have posted Kate's first picture since her last public appearance on Christmas day.

Unfortunately, whoever edited the photo didn't do a great job, and now people are zooming in and pointing out all of the messy photoshop.

"Is Kate Middleton just taking a 3-month break to learn how to use Photoshop?" this person asked.

"I found four Photoshop mistakes in 30 seconds. Hire me, royals. I'm a professional," another person said.

People are also noticing Kate's missing wedding ring.

It gets even stranger...

The Royals reporter for ITV also said three international photo agencies refused to distribute the pic because it was "manipulated."

Ultimately, this whole thing is SO messy.

I guess they just made the conspiracy theory speculation worse.
