"This has been floating around Twitter and it was fantastic to see that the official portrait I took was presented as a gift to the King and Queen of Norway during the Cambridge's Scandinavian Royal Tour," Jackson wrote in the caption.

Middleton who has been known for recycling her outfit, re-wore her blue Catherine Walker suit for the said photo shoot. But the snap became controversial after some fans started to look for the Duchess' right arm.
"Where's Kate's right hand?!" Kate M Cambridge wrote.
"Has anyone seen Kate's right arm? Did she lose it somewhere?" Sue Rose asked.
The royal fans believed that Middleton's missing arms could be due to a bad edit. Meanwhile, some believed that she placed it at Prince William's back since they were standing close to each other.
