Prince William ‘Appalled’ by Backlash Against Kate Middleton Amid Fashion Controversy
Prince William is reportedly “appalled” by the criticism directed at Princess Kate, especially in light of her recent battle with cancer.
According to In Touch, the royal family and Kensington Palace staff are standing firmly behind the Princess of Wales, insisting that the scrutiny over her fashion choices is entirely unwarranted.
“There’s a strong consensus not just within the royal family but also among all those who work for them that Kate can do no wrong,” an insider revealed. “Everyone is appalled that she’s even being questioned over something as trivial as her wardrobe.”
The controversy erupted after *The Sunday Times* reported on February 1 that Kensington Palace would no longer disclose details about Kate’s outfits during public engagements. Initially, a palace spokesperson stated that the move was intended to shift the focus to her charitable work rather than her clothing choices. However, just a week later, the Palace clarified that no official change in approach had been made.
Prince William has been particularly vocal in standing by his wife, especially following her courageous fight against cancer. “William is absolutely incensed,” a royal source shared. “He finds it unbelievable that after everything Kate has endured over the past year, people would still attempt to criticize her.”
In January 2025, Kate publicly announced her remission from cancer, marking a significant milestone in her recovery. Since then, she has gradually resumed her royal duties, with the full support of her family.
Palace insiders emphasize that Kate remains in full control over whether or not details about her fashion choices are shared. She has the complete backing of the royal family to “ignore the fuss and do as she pleases.”
As Kate continues to focus on her philanthropic work, it is clear that she has the unwavering support of Prince William and the entire royal household. Despite the unwarranted scrutiny, the Princess of Wales remains dedicated to her role and the causes she champions.
