The lives of royals and celebrities are not always a fairy tale, and the tabloids know this all too well.
Amid the growing storm of rumors surrounding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the couple has once again made headlines, but this time not for their disagreements with the British Royal Family or for their failed projects.
In a new turn of events in the Sussexes' lives, attention is now focused on Meghan's apparent discomfort with the prince's baldness. Since they joined their lives, Harry's hair loss has been a source of tension in her relationship, with Meghan reportedly feeling embarrassed by her husband's alopecia, one of the most characteristic traits of Windsor men.
Tensions in the marriage have reached a peak with Meghan's aesthetic concerns towards Harry's baldness. Close sources revealed that the Duchess of Sussex has not hesitated to suggest to her husband that she undergo hair implants. She has even instructed her communications team to meticulously retouch all photographs showing her husband's hair loss. However, Meghan's attempt to cover up Harry's baldness has had a boomerang effect. The recent publication of an official photo of the prince has triggered a wave of ridicule from British tabloids, who accuse the prince of abusing Photoshop to hide his growing baldness.
The Photoshop that unleashed the mockery of the tabloids
The image, which shows Harry in his role as Impact Director of the company 'Better Up', has been described as a "hoax" by the tabloid media. Harry, who has faced media scrutiny since early childhood, and who has decided to take legal action against Associated Newspaper Limited, in an attempt to stop the constant harassment and defamation, has once again been ridiculed by the British tabloids.
Under the headline "the mystery of the spare hair", platforms such as 'Daily Mail', 'Mail On Line' and 'Mail On Sunday', have continued their crusade to put every strand of Harry's hair under the magnifying glass, unraveling even the Possible editing tricks on your official photos. British tabloids have compared recent images of Harry to his appearance during a trip to Asia, claiming the retouching was used to hide his receding baldness.
According to the aforementioned media, "those thick, dark strands" are the result of the use of Photoshop's cloning tool, which allows essential elements of the image to be duplicated, in this case applied to the hair to achieve a denser appearance.

Even hair health experts have been consulted to analyze Prince Harry's situation. According to the expert, Harry's hair loss has accelerated since his move to the United States and he is in a similar stage of hair loss to what his brother William experienced at age 26. This revelation has sparked questions about the prince's personal acceptance of his appearance and whether the image manipulation was done with her consent or was Meghan Markle's initiative in her quest to improve her husband's image.
