A recent video of Kate Middleton has gone viral on social media after someone sharing it claimed to see a large scar on the Princess of Wales's face. She has not yet commented.
Kate Middleton has been radiant since the beginning of 2025. As a reminder, the Princess of Wales had an extremely difficult 2024. In January, she was hospitalized for long-planned abdominal surgery. However, doctors discovered during her hospital stay that Prince William's wife had cancer.
Kate Middleton chose to keep her illness private, unlike King Charles III, who quickly announced to the British public that he had the same disease in 2024. Ultimately, the Princess of Wales revealed her cancer diagnosis in a video posted on social media, having begun a chemotherapy regimen. The mother of George, Charlotte, and Louis had been forced to step back from her royal duties during her convalescence.
An internet user claims to have seen a large scar on the face of the Princess of Wales. Now in remission, Kate Middleton is once again able to fulfill the obligations inherent to her royal titles. She recently celebrated Christmas with the royal family. The Princess of Wales also appeared in public, which led to the release of a video that went viral on social media. The internet user who posted this video accompanied it with a message about a large scar they claim to have seen on the face of Prince William's wife.
"I hadn't commented on Kate Middleton's scar because I hadn't realized how large and deep it was until this video. What happened to her? A facial scar is one of a woman's greatest fears. The British media, which attacks Meghan Sussex daily while ignoring this, are displaying a diabolical bias," he wrote.
I haven’t commented on Kate Middleton’s scar because I didn’t realized how big & dip a scar it is until this video.

Kate Middleton has a scar "several centimeters long" on her temple. While Kate Middleton does indeed have a scar, it's not on her face but on her temple. This scar, "several centimeters long," is cleverly concealed by the Princess of Wales, who has always refused to discuss this physical detail. Consequently, no one knows the origin of this mark at the moment.
In fact, the last official statement on the subject dates back to the year of her marriage to Prince William (2011). This scar reportedly came from "an operation during her childhood." At the time, the Daily Mail indicated that the mark could be "the result of an arteriovenous malformation—a birthmark—that was removed." However, this information was never subsequently confirmed.
