Kim Kardashian has faced widespread criticism for not apologizing for a controversial Instagram post about Princess Kate Middleton, following the revelation of Middleton's cancer diagnosis and ongoing chemotherapy treatment, revealed on Friday. The backlash began after several celebrities and netizens called out Kardashian for her insensitivity. Meghan King, a former star of Real Housewives of Orange County, has already issued an apology to Middleton for engaging in the online discourse about her whereabouts prior to the announcement of her illness. The public and various news outlets have demanded that Kardashian remove the offensive post and issue a formal apology to the Princess of Wales.
