The not exactly undisputed royalty expert Marc van der Linden writes extensively in the editorial of his magazine Royalty about all kinds of encounters he would have had with the British Queen Elizabeth. There is even a photo of a real one-on-one meeting between the royalty journalist and the deceased head of state.

According to Marc, it was all very exciting. “My knees buckled as she reached out to me with the satin glove. I gave her the weakest hand ever, I’m afraid,” he writes.

But huh? Marc shaking hands with Queen Elizabeth one-on-one in a room? What did he do to deserve that? Well, it hasn’t happened at all. Yvonne late on her dreaded juice channel see how Marc photoshopped it all together. Both himself, the queen and the background come from three different photos.

“Why are you lying?”

Yvonne is stunned. “The chances of you meeting the Queen are really nil, Marc. Lying about that is one thing, but faking a photo as a journalist…?! Truly a NO GO. You are finished.”

The reality channel Reality FBI shares Yvonne’s findings. “Just bought a photo and the queen photoshopped out. Unbelievable, Marc van der Linden.”
