The whereabouts of Kate Middleton had been the butt of a plethora of jokes of late. Now, following the Princess of Wales’ decision to share her cancer diagnosis<\/a> with the world, Blake Lively has stepped forward to publicly apologise for a now tone-deaf comment she posted poking fun at the Palace photoshop scandal<\/a> and thus the speculation surrounding an apparently missing Princess<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At the height of public furore, Lively shared an obviously doctored image of herself lounging by a pool and holding a can of her hard seltzer range, Betty Booze.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>Gossip Girl <\/span><\/i>alum captioned her now-deleted post, \u201cI\u2019m so excited to share this new photo I just took today to announce our 4 new @bettybuzz & @bettybooze products! Now you know why I\u2019ve been MIA,\u201d joining the likes of Kim Kardashian and Stephen Colbert who also joked about Middleton\u2019s \u201cdisappearance\u201d. (Kardashian teased that she was \u201cOn [her] way to go find Kate\u201d in a post of her standing next to one of her luxury cars.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, given the recent revelation about the extent of Middleton\u2019s condition, the tone of these gags has taken a solemn turn, especially given the incessant chatter around how Middleton may have felt forced to reveal the full scope of her condition. <\/span><\/p>\n

Acknowledging this, Lively deleted the post and shared a statement to her Instagram stories to admit her remorse for the role she played in making fun of Middleton\u2019s recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure no one cares today but I feel like I have to acknowledge this,\u201d Lively began. \u201cI made a silly post around the ‘photoshop fails’ frenzy, and oh man, that post has me mortified today. I\u2019m sorry,\u201d she wrote. <\/span><\/p>\n

The upcoming <\/span>It Ends With Us <\/span><\/i>star ended her post by claiming she\u2019s “sending love and well wishes to all, always”. Lively didn\u2019t explicitly name Middleton or the Royal family in any of her posts. Lively\u2019s husband, actor Ryan Reynolds, met King Charles III back in 2022 after he and Queen Camilla paid a visit to the Welsh football team, Wrexham FC. The <\/span>Deadpool<\/span><\/i> star and <\/span>It\u2019s Always Sunny In Philadelphia <\/span><\/i>actor Rob McElhenney purchased the team in early 2021. McHellenney also took a shot of whiskey with Prince William<\/a> during his tour to Wales in March this year. Neither co-owners have addressed the scandal, nor Lively\u2019s response. <\/span><\/p>\n

With Lively the first A-lister to break her silence, it might open the floodgates for other celebrities to acknowledge their comments, too. And with the Princess asking for privacy, it\u2019s clear no further jokes will be made at her expense anytime soon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42674,"featured_media":49772,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[36,35],"yoast_head":"\nBlake Lively Apologises To Kate Middleton
