Catherine, Princess of Wales, recently marked her 14th wedding anniversary with Prince William, but their heartfelt celebration in Scotland included an unintentional moment of royal awkwardness. The couple’s visit to the Isle of Mull, while deeply meaningful, caught the public’s eye not only for its symbolism but also for an unexpected faux pas involving the Princess herself.
Celebrating Love and Community in Scotland
Kate Middleton and Prince William chose a location rich with personal history to commemorate their wedding milestone. The couple first met decades ago at St. Andrew’s University, and it was there that their romance blossomed before they married in 2011. To mark the occasion, they spent two days in Scotland, highlighting the importance of community and connection during their visit. Sharing a video on the social platform X, the couple expressed enthusiasm for the “inspiring two days” ahead.
On April 29, the royal pair visited the picturesque town of Tobermory on the scenic Isle of Mull. The streets were filled with local vendors and charming shops, as Kate and William took a leisurely stroll, appreciating the local culture. However, close-up photos from the outing revealed a small, unintended detail — a tiny piece of food stuck to the right side of Kate’s teeth.

While such minor mishaps happen to everyone, it was an unexpected sight for someone in her polished position. The nature of the debris suggested it was not easy to remove with just a subtle lick or discreet smile. This meant that to fix it properly, Kate would have needed a toothpick or dental floss — an action unlikely to be performed publicly by royalty during an official appearance.
Fashion Forward but Not Always Foolproof
The sight of something stuck in the Princess’s teeth was far from the most memorable of her public missteps. Over the years, Kate Middleton has encountered a few wardrobe malfunctions, reminding us all that even royals aren’t immune to fashion challenges.
Shortly after their wedding, during a 2011 trip to Calgary, Canada, Kate faced a breezy predicament. Wearing a lightweight yellow dress designed by Jenny Packham, the outfit was perfect for a sunny day but vulnerable in the wind. As she met members of the Canadian military, a gust caught the hem of her dress, sending the skirt fluttering and forcing Kate to grab it quickly before an embarrassing moment unfolded. Designer Packham later lightheartedly reflected on the incident, admitting she hadn’t anticipated the dress being worn on a windy runway and joking about adding weights to future designs.
Not long after, in 2018, Kate encountered a similar situation at Princess Eugenie’s wedding. Dressed in a striking fuchsia Alexander McQueen gown, the Princess faced a strong wind while making her way to St. George’s Chapel. This time, however, thanks to her quick reflexes, the skirt only briefly lifted, revealing a hint of her leg — far less revealing than it could have been and certainly less alarming than her first encounter with the wind.
Grace Under Pressure: The Real Royal Trait
The recent teeth mishap in Scotland and her past wardrobe near-misses highlight a candid and relatable side of Kate Middleton. Despite the carefully crafted royal image, these moments reveal a human and approachable aspect of the Princess of Wales. Her ability to carry on with grace and good humor under such circumstances is what endears her to many around the world.
Both Kate and William remain popular figures not just for their royal duties but for their genuine charm and dedication to their causes. Their anniversary trip to Scotland, filled with meaningful symbolism and community outreach, was a reminder of the love and commitment that underpin their public roles, imperfections and all.
