Kylie Kelce apologized after learning that referring to Kate Middleton as “Princess Kate” could be considered disrespectful.
“I love learning, so I was unaware that calling Princess Catherine, Princess Kate was offensive,” Kylie said during Thursday’s episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast.
“I didn’t know that. Now I know that. Now I will proceed accordingly,” the mom of four continued. “I apologize for the mistake. I would like to refer to people in the most respectful way and how they feel respected.”
Kelce said she “was unaware that calling Princess Catherine, Princess Kate was offensive” (Middleton is pictured here).
The 34-year-old then offered a direct apology to the future queen. “Princess Catherine or the Princess of Wales, I apologize,” she said. “I will get that sorted immediately starting now.”

Kylie also clarified that while she “loves curse words,” she would never use them in front of Middleton.
“At the end of the day, I am respectful of the situations that I am put in, at least being respectful to the people I am speaking to,” she said.
