Kate Middleton had a busy start to 2025 after recovering from her cancer diagnosis. The Princess of Wales has been constantly enjoying vacations, planning her children’s future, and dedicating herself to charity work. However, a recent move of hers has made the former First Lady of the United States, Melania Trump, smile.
According to the Daily Mail, the influential editor-in-chief of Vogue, Anna Wintour, once again ignored Melania Trump and personally reached out to Kate Middleton, inviting her to grace the cover of the prestigious magazine. The mystery deepened when GB News reported on Wintour’s reaction. When asked about the rumor during her visit to Buckingham Palace—where she received one of the UK’s highest honors—the fashion editor simply gave a knowing smile and said, “Well, I don’t know where those rumors came from, do you?”
Meanwhile, a source told GB News that both the Royal Family and those working for them have unwavering confidence in Kate Middleton. “There is a strong belief that Kate can do no wrong, so of course, everyone was shocked that she was even questioned about this. The Princess is being encouraged to ignore criticism and continue fulfilling her royal duties in any way that makes her comfortable,” the source stated.
Notably, had she accepted Vogue’s offer, Middleton would have had full control over selecting the photographer and designer for the shoot. However, contrary to many expectations, the Princess decided to turn down the opportunity. Her reason was quite surprising: Middleton no longer wants to be seen as a fashion icon.
The Princess of Wales’ decision not only stunned the media but also seemingly amused Melania Trump. The former First Lady is said to have smiled at the fact that Kate Middleton rejected an honor that many would dream of. Could this be a subtle message from Kate Middleton? Or is it simply a reflection of the different approaches to fame taken by these two powerful women?
