she looks drunk or high in the portrait! Much prettier in photos!

The head shot makes her look like she was on a bender, or smoking heavily. I'm sure she has someone to help her take care of the baby.

The "Artist" is actually a wildlife portrait guy, it shows I think, why they picked him I'll never know.

Yea, she looks kind of animated in the portrait. Now I know why.

Yeah, they should have touched it up.

What an insult to her looks.Kate is a gorgeous girl, not in that portrait she's not.Kate will look like that when she is 60.

I agree Colleen, i saw it on the news she looks older, it certainly does not do her any justice.

NOT VERY GOOD.. MAYBE SHE SHOULD PUT IT AWAY FOR ABOUT 20 YEARS THEN IT'LL BE JUST RIGHT. Sorry for the caps, it was stuck.

I think the portrait looks like her but it is missing her youth. It looks like an older version of her. I agree with Vinny. I wonder why the artist didn't see how old she look in this painting? If Princess Kate viewed the portrait first she should have told Mr. Harris the truth and ask him to polish the painting up. Maybe that's how she looks to him.

Chelleanne, a Paul Emsley was the artist, and you are right , there is no vibrancy in the portrait, i think he should start again and capture the true Kate.

Thanks, Bulletman for informing me who the artist is!

Maybe he shoud`ve gone to Specsavers too!!;-)

Maybe the artist painted her looking hagard, b/c he had an ulterior motive....such as a personal vendetta towards British royalty. Although Kate is / was a commoner.

Lol I love that song now wonder the rest of the world was convinced we had kangas as pets lol...

I use to tell people from overseas I worked on the harbour bridge as a shoo ...
Would shoo all the kangaroos and koalas off the bridge so they didn't get hit by cars...
Tie that kangaroo down sport, no roos on the bridge :)

hahaha!I have been asked if I ever had a pet kangaroo.I think the worldwide concept of Australia has changed since I was a kid tho.

The movie, "Crocodile Dundee " didn't help much either, although it's one of my fave movies.

I like the latter two. She looks more real. I can't imagine her ever being queen.....

The last two are real photos. The top one is a painting and so far the vote on Facebook is everyone hates the portrait. I just added the real photos to show how bad the painting really is.

I saw an updated version of the portrait showing teeth in the smile. Much better. Wish I could xfer from FB.....(p.s. they added a puppy)

Someone photoshopped it then.

Yep and did a good job......It came from London.

I`d have recognized her from it..but it makes her look dowdy and seems very old fashioned!...It certainly doesn`t do her justice..There`s no fresh faced look about her!..I don`t know who the artist is..or if she has any say in it before it`s released..but imo..I`d rip it up and start again!..(The artist has probably been sent to The
Tower by now!;-)

Actually Kate called the painting "brilliant".

Colleen i don't think she could say anything else with the world media at the Gallery, i hate to think what she said to Wills what her true feellings of the painting when they got home

Wow, that is disappointing. She photos as a beautiful, vibrant, intelligent enough woman with a twinkle in her eye, some mischief lurking behind. That portrait looks like a tired woman with too many kids, too much laundry to do, and an abusive hubby (if he's even still around). Too bad.
