Kensington Palace Reacts to Kate Middleton Clothing Controversy in Rare Statement

Kate Middleton’s reign as a style queen isn’t over yet.

After the Princess of Wales and her fashion sense became a big topic of conversation due to a report claiming she would no longer allow her clothes to overshadow her work, Kensington Palace set the record straight in a rare statement.

“Over the last week, I have received numerous questions about a story regarding The Princess of Wales’s clothing and how Kensington Palace shares information about her outfits,” said a statement from a palace spokesperson to E! News. “To clarify, the comments that appeared in the article were from me, not The Princess of Wales.”

“The comments that were reported should not be directly attributed to The Princess of Wales,” the statement continued. “To be clear, there has been no change in our approach to sharing information about Her Royal Highness’s clothing.”

Kensington Palace’s statement comes over a week after The Times reported that Kate hoped to emphasize the work she’s done following her battle with cancer as opposed to what she’s wearing during those outings.
