This is the exact face we make when our partner comes home from work to tell us they have just purchased a timeshare on some far-off, god-forsaken island. And no, it’s not flattering on any of us.
“You did what?!” is our chosen phrase of disbelief and shock, but truthfully, we don’t know what Kate was saying, so we can only speculate. Perhaps she was asked a really uncomfortable question and she was busy thinking of a way to answer without forgetting her manners. Clearly, whoever said a picture is worth a thousand words was speaking of this one.
Mona - Kate - Lisa
The problem with faking a smile is that under certain circumstances, it might end up looking like a condescending smirk. The Princess is revealing her teeth a bit too, as she probably saw something she really didn’t like.
We call this pose the ‘Mona - Kate - Lisa’, because just like the famous painting, no one can tell what Kate is really feeling here. Is that a smile? If you pay close attention, you’ll notice that Kate’s body language is also very closed. She’s guarding her bag close to her body, and her shoulders are rounded and slumped in. We wonder what she saw…
Cowboy Time
You might ask yourself what Prince Williams and Kate Middleton have to do with what looks like a bull riding event. Unfortunately, we have no idea either. The two look fantastic in their cowboy hats, at least that’s for sure.
The two look like they were pulled straight out of a Western movie. Perhaps they should consider starring in one together. Now that’s a movie we would all go to the theater to see! Unfortunately, we doubt the king would allow it, as staring in westerns is not high up on the family's obligation list.
A Peek Inside the Mind of Kate
This is a truly unflattering photo of Kate, but clearly, even on her worst day, she still looks great. The Princess of Wales must have had a pretty terrible day, and this is the last smile she had to put on that day.
Being part of the Royal Family also means that you have to exude a sense of optimism and decor at all times. Kate appears to be doing quite well, given the circumstances. She’s smiling all right, albeit this smile makes her look like she may just be on the verge of a mental breakdown. No doubt Kate managed to pull it together moments later, as Kate always does.
It’s a Bit Hard to Explain
Just like we’ve seen, the lovable Princess uses a lot of body language in order to properly express herself. All signs show that she is most probably speaking to her friend about the best burger she’s ever tasted.
Sometimes it’s a bit hard to find the right words, and Kate certainly seems to be struggling. We’re sure she eventually managed to get her point across though, leaving just this photo behind to be figured out. In this picture, Kate’s neck is twisting and stretching at all the wrong angles. We’re sure she wasn’t too pleased with the photographer.
