Kate made headlines in 2018 for her dress choice for the annual BAFTAs. The royal, who was seven months pregnant with Prince Louis at the time, was criticized for walking the red carpet in a deep green gown with a black sash after attendees were encouraged to wear all black in support of the Time’s Up movement.
