Instagram users have since flocked to the comments of Kardashian's post to demand an apology. One person wrote, "After the news of her having cancer has been revealed, you should really take this down. It’s extremely insensitive and you owe our princess an apology."

Another Instagram user commented, "Can you please go find an apology instead??" while someone else pointed out, "Well I guess you found her in the chemo ward Kim. Your caption is distasteful."

Others got more snarky with their comments, with one person declaring, "Pathetic insensitive post. My heart goes out to Kate Middleton. On another note I mean is Kim K still relevant? Just asking…"

Yet another Instagram user chimed in, "I would highly suggest an apology. How cruel when she’s battling cancer 😭."

As of writing, Kardashian has not responded to the backlash or removed the post.

In Middleton's video announcement, she explained that initially, doctors determined her condition was non-cancerous. Further testing, unfortunately, revealed there was cancer present.

“My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy, and I am now in the early stages of that treatment,” the royal shared. “This of course came as a huge shock, and William and I have been doing everything we can to process and manage this privately for the sake of our young family.”

Middleton said she waited to share the news until after she and Prince William explained to Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis the situation "in a way that is appropriate to them. Additionally, she noted that she is "well and getting stronger every day" while stressing her family's need for "time, space, and privacy" amid her ongoing treatment.
