It used to be the case that newspapers had a life span of one day only.
Not so in the age of social media, though, so we suspect that UK paper The Daily Telegraph might regret this front page for some time to come.
Previews of the cover hit social media late last night, and on-the-ball Twitter users spotted that the positioning of the lead headline above an unrelated picture of William, Kate and the gorgeous Prince George looked a little off, in the most unintentionally hilarious way.

Once the gaffe was spotted and began to spread online, newspaper editors worked fast to change this morning’s edition of the title. Just not fast enough! It could happen to anyone…
