What’s Going On With Kate’s Missing Arm?
Let’s talk about the royal family's 2017 Christmas Card, folks. This photo might just be one of their best snapshots to date. But guess what? The moment it was released on Monday, December 18, eagle-eyed fans noticed something odd. In the portrait, Prince William and Kate Middleton—both 35—stand proudly with their two adorable kids, Prince George and Princess Charlotte. The whole fam is rocking matching blue outfits, looking as chic as ever. But hold up—Kate’s right arm? It’s completely MIA in the picture! William’s got his hands on George's shoulders, and Kate’s left hand is resting gracefully on her skirt. But where’s her other arm? It’s like it vanished into thin air. While it’s probably just tucked behind William, the absence of her limb has sparked quite the conversation.
As you can imagine, social media was buzzing with jokes about this peculiar detail. One witty Twitter user even suggested starting a "petition to recover Kate Middleton’s lost arm." On Instagram, another commenter chimed in, "Where has Kate’s right hand disappeared to?" Despite the mystery, it’s clear that the royal family’s holiday card is getting plenty of attention. And honestly, who wouldn’t be intrigued? The more you look at the photo, the more you notice how quirky it seems without that arm.

Other Details That Got People Talking
But wait, there’s more to this picture than just Kate’s missing arm. Folks couldn’t help but notice other quirky details in the photo. For instance, Kate’s dazzling diamond and sapphire engagement ring is front and center, but William’s left ring finger is bare. "Why doesn’t William wear a wedding band?" one Instagram user wondered aloud. Turns out, the Duke has mentioned before that he simply prefers not to wear jewelry—it’s all about personal preference for him. Now, isn’t that interesting?
When you take a closer look at the kids, the observations get even cuter. Four-year-old George is rocking those signature shorts, and his left sock is pulled way higher than his right one. How adorable is that? Meanwhile, two-year-old Charlotte is stealing hearts with her uncanny resemblance to her great-grandma, Queen Elizabeth. One fan gushed on Instagram, "Such a beautiful family. ❤ That little Charlotte is the spitting image of the Queen!" And let’s not forget about Kate’s baby bump—or lack thereof. Kensington Palace clarified that the photo was taken "earlier this year," which explains why she doesn’t appear pregnant. Some are speculating that the family’s all-blue outfits might hint at the gender of baby No. 3. Could it be a boy? A girl? We’ll have to wait and see!
