A seemingly innocent family photograph released to mark Mother’s Day in the UK earlier this month sparked a row that dominated news headlines and social media around the world.

Britain’s Prince William snapped the photo and his wife, Princess Catherine, edited it. However, the changes were spotted by news agencies and individuals alike, renewing discussions about fake photography versus innocent or well-intended photo tinkering.

Cambridge University Researcher, Dr. Mansoor Ahmed Rengers, has said the company he founded, OpenOrigins, provides an invaluable tool to the news industry, insurance companies, and beyond, when it comes to confirming the truth behind an image.

Rengers joined Al Arabiya English’s Riz Khan to discuss doctored images, fake photographs, and the potential consequences.
