Kate Middleton was forced to cancel attending the Tusk Conservation Awards in Leicester Square with her husband, Prince William, last week "due to her children." Irate fans quickly aired their sentiments about the matter on Twitter and even compared the Duchess of Cambridge to Meghan Markle for canceling her appearance in the last minute.
What happened to Kate Middleton and Prince William's kids remained undisclosed until today. It was only said that she had to pull out of the event because of her children. However, the sources didn't give any information about the matter.
Royal fans noticed the difference of media's treatment on Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle and expressed it on Twitter. They said that if it were Prince Harry's wife who canceled the event, there would be 10 editorials about her now. Royal reporters would also be enraged if the latter did that.
Another one added that if it were Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex would be asked to give up her title because she couldn't do her duty. The taxpayers might also complain because they didn't get their money's worth.
They were the ones providing her lavish lifestyle, and it would be disrespectful and an un-royal thing to do for the former actress to cancel an event. However, because it was Kate Middleton, it was totally fine, and she was a good mother for doing so.
Some asked where Kate Middleton's nannies were. Undoubtedly, the Cambridges had a couple of people to look after Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis whenever they were out. However, being considered a good princess, a Twitter user said that she is "excused in everything."
Meanwhile, before Kate Middleton canceled the event, she attended a tea party for the winners at Kensington Palace with Prince William, per People. In the evening, the Duke of Cambridge honored the people who protect Africa's wildlife.
Prince William presented three awards before she went on with his speech. After he and his wife spent some time with the nominees and finalists, he said that their bravery, determination, and commitment to African conservation were "deeply humbling."
As a new decade is about to come, Prince William revealed that the challenges they have to face are clear and urgent. There is climate change; human population growth, exploitation of natural sources, and habitat loss that all pose significant threats to the world that they need to address. So, in 2020, Kate Middleton's spouse asked everyone to "move forward with optimism and action" to help the environment.
