Tucker Carlson seems to have been taken in by a prank about the heavily edited Mother’s Day photo of Catherine, Princess of Wales, and her children.
YouTube pranksters Josh Pieters and Archie Manners claimed to have duped the former Fox News host into believing he’d scored an interview with a Kensington Palace digital content producer who had been fired for poorly editing the family’s photo. In a video posted on X on Thursday, the duo show Manners posing as the disgruntled employee, faking palace employment papers and engineering what is ostensibly the “original” of the now-infamous photo.
According to the video, the fake employment contract Manners and Pieters drew up included a clause that stipulates that if an employee fails their probationary period, the employer can amputate one limb of its choosing — a detail that Carlson’s team apparently did not notice.
