Princess Kate’s Reaction to Being Tickled Caught on Camera
Princess Kate being tickled by a young man during a sports event went viral on TikTok after being included in a montage of the royal.
The Princess of Wales was talking with one Disability Rugby League player when another came up behind and tickled her waist, at Allam Sports Centre, in Hull, England.
Kate looked momentarily shocked before turning to see the boy, at which point she then laughed and shook his hand, in October.
The lighthearted moment came on the same day she joined a training session of England’s Wheelchair Rugby League team, who had won the World Cup in 2022.
The hilarious moment was one of a number of clips of Kate that went viral after they were posted on TikTok with the message: “[I know] she is so random for me to edit but she’s so attractive you guys I’ve been so obsessed w her recently.”
The video, which was viewed 1.6 million times and liked 269,000 times, also included a shot of Kate’s Jenny Packham golden sequined cape dress from the James Bond No Time to Die premiere in September 2021.
Other clips came from her 2010 engagement interview, a visit to watch the tennis at Wimbledon, on July 16, 2023, and a visit the same month to the Foundling Museum, in London, in a pastel-pink suit from Alexander McQueen.
One comment read: “Saw her irl [in real life] and she’s breathtaking,” while another read: “Honestly I’m not ashamed to admit I’m a raging Kate lover.”
During Kate’s visit to meet wheelchair rugby players, she was sporting an injured finger from a trampoline accident with her children.
She joined in a match despite being heard saying: “I’m worried about my finger, but willing to try.”
Kate has been off public duties for the whole of 2024 after abdominal surgery on January 16 led to a later diagnosis of cancer.
The princess announced in March that she had been undergoing chemotherapy, which she described as preventative.
Together with Prince William and their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis she has spent the Easter school holidays in Norfolk, where the family have a rural retreat, Anmer Hall.
