Unless you have lived under the hammer last week, you will have seen Bowsette on your travels on the Internet.
Bowsette, as the Internet has named, is a fusion of characters inspired by Bowser's idea using the Super Crown Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe to turn into Peach version. It seems to have been created from the work of the artist aykk92, who drew a fun cartoon imagining Mario and Bowser who find love using Super Crown. Saying that the Internet took this idea and ran with it is a euphemism.

It seems now that Nintendo has created Bowsette first. The book, The Art of Super Mario Odyssey, has just come out in Japan, and inside is what looks like an image of Bowsette (thanks, Eventhubs).
The art suggests that Nintendo thinks Bowser will use his own version of Cappy in the exclusive Nintendo Switch, dubbed a Koopa cap, to take control of the characters he's hit. And as the victim of the Cappy takes some of the characteristics of Mario, the victim of Koopa Cap will resume some of the characteristics of Bowser.
The book includes a cartoon showing Bowser hitting Peach with this Koopa Cap and, well, transforming it into what looks like OG Bowsette.
Eventhubs indicates that the Twitter user, ninpoapipipi, is the first to have discovered Bowsette in the art book, but their account seems to have been deleted. Yet, the internet never forgets. So here it is:
So, in THE ART OF SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY that came out in Japan today, there is an abandoned Bowser concept that takes Peach's body back with his own version of Cappy.
It's a bit surreal how there could have been an "official" bowsette long before the fan got hold of the internet. pic.twitter.com/gSMOqNDKKf

It seems that Nintendo thought that Bowser took control of Peach's body at some point in Super Mario Odyssey, but gave up the idea for some reason.
This revelation raises a number of profound questions: is Bowsette now canon? Does Bowsette now appear in a later Nintendo game? And, the deepest of all, are not we all a bit Bowsette?
