Kate Middleton praised for response to question about Meghan and Harry’s

In 2021, the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, was praised for her composed response when unexpectedly questioned about her newborn niece, Princess Lilibet. Lilibet, the daughter of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, was born on June 4, 2021, in California after her parents moved to the U.S. following tensions with the royal family and British media. Harry and Meghan had accused Prince William and Kate of bullying, with claims that William physically confronted Harry and that Kate had made Meghan cry over wedding arrangements. These allegations heightened public interest in how the Wales family might react to the baby’s birth.

During an interview shortly after Lilibet’s arrival, a journalist asked Kate if she had any wishes for her niece. Kate smiled and responded graciously, saying she wished Lilibet “all the very best” and hoped to meet her soon, though they hadn’t yet met. When asked if she had FaceTimed with the baby, Kate simply replied, “No, I haven’t.” Despite the strained relationship between the couples, Kate was widely praised for handling the surprise questions with grace and poise. The moment recently resurfaced online, with fans commending her respectful and tactful response under pressure.
