This year hasn’t exactly been a masterpiece for theBritish royal familyand their portraits. First,King Charles’ gory Dracula-esque portraithad everyone in stitches (and not the artistic kind). Now,Kate Middletonis the latest royal to be skewered in the gallery offailed paintings.
A first look at the issue, which will be on sale from 30 May, was shared onsocial media, where brutally honest critics lurk.
Hannah depicted the 42-year-old princess wearing a long white gown adorned with a sash and a yellow brooch.

The painter, known for her expressive and emotive portraiture, depicted the princess as composed and serene.
The background of the painting is a solid, deep blue, which contrasts the white of Kate’s dress and adds to the overall elegance of the portrait.

Nevertheless, the artist’s signature vivid colors and embodiment of heritage failed to impress certain harsh X users (formerly known as Twitter):
“This looks nothing like thePrincess of Wales. It’s so awful, it’s disrespectful. Why did you choose an anti-monarchist to paint the Princess of Wales,” an observer remarked.
A person wrote: “Doesn’t look like Catherine at all. If she wasn’t wearing that dress I’d have no clue as to who it’s meant to be.”
Kate was depicted wearing a floor-length Jenny Packham white dress, which she wore with a blue ribbon wrapped around her at a state banquet in 2022

Someone commented: “Are you kidding me? What is that rubbish of a painting?
“Hope you won’t sell any of those trash copies … you must be joking!”
A viewer penned: “This is dreadful – somehow, I’m not sure the artist is a fan of the Princess – it looks like a bad GCSE project!”

If you thought King Charles’s portrait was bad, feast your eyes on this abomination of Kate Middleton… it’s actually almost impossibly terrible.@stephiegalpic.twitter.com/7lSdB0RPdx

A respondent asked: “Where are they getting these artists/painters from? It’s likehigh schoolart class level at best.”
“The face is just not Catherine. Also, why does she appear to be hunched and not holding her back straight?” a netizen wondered.
A participant stated: “Dreadful: unrecognizable face, wrong shape, lopsided, no detail to the clothing.”
I am unsure which is the worst portrait; at least Charles’s finger looks like his. What are they trying to accomplish with Kate Middleton; is this what she will look like when she returns or if she ever return?#WhereIsKateMiddletonpic.twitter.com/czkRKh5X7L

A contributed added: “Put different clothes on her, and no one would know that is supposed to be Catherine. It doesn’t look like her at all, not one little bit.”
A separate individual chimed in: “This picture is atrocious.”

Kate underwent a “planned” abdominal procedure, but after months of having seemingly disappeared from the eye of the public, the palace offered few updates on her health,leading to wild conspiracy theories.
The “Where is Kate Middleton” saga ended on March 22, 2024, when the princess shared the devastating news thatshe had been diagnosed with cancerand was undergoing “a course of preventative chemotherapy.”
Bored Pandahas contacted Hannah for comment.
“They did her dirty,” a reader joked
