Princess Kate’s Heartwarming Selfie with a Nervous Fan Goes Viral

A touching moment from Princess Kate’s royal walkabout has recently resurfaced on TikTok, capturing her warm interaction with a nervous fan. The footage, originally from a significant 2023 appearance, has garnered widespread praise online.

Interest in Kate surged in 2024 after her return to public life following a hiatus due to health challenges. After undergoing abdominal surgery and chemotherapy for cancer, Kate resumed her official duties on June 15 at King Charles’ Trooping the Colour celebrations in London.

 

 

The viral TikTok video, posted by @helensmccrory, features Kate’s visit to Leeds in January 2023. During this visit, she launched her “Shaping Us” childhood awareness campaign. In the video, a fan nervously asks for a selfie, to which Kate responds warmly, saying, “Please don’t worry! It’s OK. We all get nervous. Nice to meet you.”

The video has received nearly 60,000 likes and over 170 comments, with many praising Kate’s kind and compassionate nature. Users have also drawn parallels between Kate and her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, highlighting their shared ability to connect with the public.

The resurfaced footage underscores Kate’s enduring popularity and her commitment to engaging with the public in a warm and empathetic manner.
