The BBC has issued an apology to Kate Middleton after they received a wave of backlash for what they called her during their Armistice Day coverage.
Before you jump to any conclusions, no they didn’t call the Princess of Wales, 43, any awful and shocking names – they simply used her name ‘Kate Middleton’ instead of her royal title ‘Princess of Wales’, which she’s held since King Charles III took the throne back in 2022.
While this might not seem like a big deal, it’s actually a hotly debated subject that gets some very strong reactions out of fans.
People often flip between Kate, Catherine, The Princess of Wales, and Catherine Princess of Wales – the mother-of-three is a woman of many names.
