According to Holder, it's all about Kate's chin. "Well, the Duchess of Cambridge has had some media training and I'm going to share a cheeky little style hack that she uses every single time, without fail. She has simply been trained to always keep her chin parallel to the ground. She doesn't tilt it down, she doesn't tilt it up and that ensures a flattering photograph every single time," shew says in the video.

According to Holder, after sharing the video people called bluff on her theory. "A whole load of you have come back saying it's because she's good looking, she's wealthy, she's got a stylists. That's not true," she responded in a follow-up video. "From years of working with supermodels, celebrities and models, you can be the most gorgeous person in the world and still get a horrific photograph. So it really is all about your relationship to the camera and where you place your jaw. If it's too low it's not good, if it's too high definitely not good."
