TV presenter, Narinder Kaur, has been slammed for asking a 'disgusting' question about Kate Middleton following her latest royal appearance.

Taking to X, the Good Morning Britain star quote-tweeted a tweet from the Daily Mail Online about the Princess of Wales' 'aged' appearance at the Remembrance Sunday memorial.

Over the weekend (10 November), Kate stepped out alongside the rest of the royal family to attend the Cenotaph which marked her second appearance in a row at two major royal events following her cancer diagnosis announcement in March this year.

Speaking of Kate, who announced she finished her chemotherapy treatment in early September, Kaur wrote on Twitter earlier this week: "Genuine question - why has Kate aged so much? Isn't she only 42?"

Kaur added: "Is she a smoker? It's the only explanation."

The tweet sparked major outrage from fans of the royals, prompting Kaur to share a tweet in response admitting the comment she made was 'stupid' and 'insensitive'.

Unfortunately, since writing the tweet, the GMB presenter and former Big Brother contestant was also met with an avalanche of 'sexual, racial, [and] violent abuse'.

Since then, Kaur has issued a follow-up video responding to the backlash yesterday (11 November).

In a video also posted on Twitter, she explained: "I put out a stupid tweet - that wasn't my intention.

"My intention was not to be malicious or nasty or anything."

She continued: "It was stupid to ask about the ageing I've admitted that, and I put my hands up, and I've apologised if it caused offence.

"The only people who were offended though, because many people on Twitter and social media asked exactly what I've asked, but did not receive the sexual, racial, violent abuse that I did from accounts with EDL flags, Union Jacks, disgusting abuse.

"I asked about ageing. I didn't kill kids. I didn't wish death on anyone. I didn't do anything like that. I asked about aging, and if she smoked, nothing to do with cancer at all."

She also commented: "She's [Kate] near enough a year off work. Of course it must take its toll... Kate does have a lot of privilege there. I'm not excusing my tweet but I'm saying you're all mad at me."

Kaur also claimed the people online criticising her were 'pitting Kate against Meghan', adding: "You exposed that what this was all about was I as a brown woman, an Indian, had the gall to criticise Kate's appearance.

"I'm not going anywhere. I'm not leaving the country. I'm gonna continue. You can keep cancelling me as much as you like, but you will not silence my voice just because I'm a brown woman, and it is that, and you will never convince me otherwise."

Kaur concluded the near five-minute video reiterating: "It was just a tweet about ageing. Just a tweet about ageing. Think about that."

Tyla has reached out to Narinder Kaur's representatives at GMB for comment.
