Kate Middleton looks unrecognizable on magazine cover after Photoshop fail

IT can only be described as an epic Photoshop fail. Woman’s Day magazine has managed to achieve the impossible — making Kate Middleton look unattractive.

The heavily pregnant Duchess of Cambridge was pictured at the opening of the new Kensington Leisure Centre last week looking radiant.

Dressed in a baby blue coat, she exuded style and beauty.

But a drastically different Kate has appeared on the latest cover of Woman’s Day.

Her eyes — which have been lightened — appear to have dark circles beneath them, in stark contrast to the original photo of her at the London event.

Kate’s skin tone — which was glowing — has been retouched to make it noticeably lighter and pasty.

Her make-up, which in reality was soft and muted, has been darkened, giving it a harsh effect.

It is not the first time the Duchess has been the victim of over-zealous picture editors.

In September 2012, US gossip title Star magazine was slammed for doctoring a picture of Kate to give her a big baby bump, claiming she was pregnant with twins.
