Kim Kardashian is being brutally dragged online as fans say her mocking joke about Kate, the Princess of Wales ‘didn’t age well’ after the royal’s revelation.
Kim Kardashian is being slammed on Instagram as fans demand the reality star apologise to the Princess of Wales over a post she uploaded a week ago that saw her posing next to her SUV captioned: “On my way to go find Kate.”
While the mocking joke was posted days before the royal revealed she has been battling cancer, fans are furious that The Kardashian star hasn’t taken down the snaps, changed the caption or apologised.
One pleaded: “Can you please go find an apology instead??” while another brutally slammed: “Well I guess you found her in the chemo ward Kim.”
Many implored the Hollywood star: “You owe our Princess an apology.”

A furious follower added: “Hope you’re feeling really s**t right now. She has cancer.
“Have we learnt nothing from how the public treated Chadwick Boseman??” they added, referring to the Black Panther star who died of colon cancer in 2020 after keeping his health woes secret for four years.
Kim’s post received a vicious reception long before the royal’s diagnosis was made public as royal enthusiasts slammed the “tacky” joke and “ignorant” celebrity for joining the online speculation.
The mother-of-four wasn’t the only A-lister to make a joke at the Princess’ expense before the devastating news was revealed as Blake Lively took a jab at her now infamous Mother’s Day photo.
The Gossip Girl star promoted her Betty Booze drink brand in a photo on Instagram as she lounged poolside with a drink in hand and a comically large lemon photoshopped into the image above her.

She captioned the post: “I’m so excited to share this new photo I just took today to announce our 4 new @bettybuzz & @bettybooze products! Now you know why I’ve been MIA.”
While the 36-year-old didn’t expressly name the Princess or the controversy, she has since deleted the post and shared an ernest apology.
Writing against a plain black background on her Instagram story just hours after Kate’s revelation, Blake stated: “I’m sure no one cares today but I feel like I have to acknowledge this.
“I made a silly post around the ‘photoshop fails’ frenzy, and oh man, that post has me mortified today. I’m sorry.
“Sending love and well wishes to all, always,” she concluded with a red heart.
