William and Kate, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, posted a warm holiday message and a sweet family photo the other day and we ungrateful former Colonists immediately ruined everything by suggesting it was Photoshopped.

AOL.com surfaced some convincing evidence to bolster claims of digital manipulation: There seems to be a little fuzziness in the center of the picture.

And at the risk of getting left off the guest list when Prince Harry marries Kate's sister Pippa Middleton (they're totally a thing you know; the Internet said so ), it seems Princess Charlotte was snapped wearing this exact same getup just a few weeks earlier. What princess is going around in the same frock twice? QED.

On the other hand it seems like if they were going to Photoshop things wouldn't they have stuck Charlotte's shoe on her foot? As it is the image feels like the most adorable wardrobe malfunction ever.
