The Palace didn't further explain the reason, so it's unknown what exactly happened with Kate and William's kids that made the Duchess skip an important event.

Royal fans didn't take the news well

People on Twitter slammed the Duchess for skipping the event and said that if this was Meghan, the media wouldn't have let it go this easily.

So Kate Middleton can cancel an engagement at the last minute and use her not sick kids as an excuse, and all the #megxit twits are fine with it! Had it been #MeghanMarkle there would be 10 editorials for @piersmorgan and Royal Reporters would be vex! https://t.co/TP12qJIvNt

How far in advance are there engagements on the calendar again? And she didn’t have childcare! That’s laughable.

Something is adrift in Cambridge town.

What's wrong with the kids. She has a nanny why can't they look after them. Why is the nanny still there if she is not needed so much.

It must have been too much for kate. She couldn't go to another engagement.

Hopefully all is well with the Cambridge kids and we'll see Kate very soon.
