Kate Middleton Donated Her Famous Hair To A Children’s Cancer Charity

Kate Middleton anonymously donated some of her hair to the Little Princess Trust, a charity that makes wigs for children fighting cancer.

The kind gesture was made in 2017, when Kate chopped several inches off her famous mane, debuting a chic new long-bob. She reportedly sent in the hair under a different name, so the charity didn't know it came from the Duchess of Cambridge until now.

"We are so very grateful to every single person who kindly supports the charity in this way. As the Duchess of Cambridge is so much in the public eye, we hope the message that the charity can help children and young people with hair loss will reach everyone who might need our assistance," charity manager Monica Glass said in a statement.

"Receiving a free, real hair wig has a very positive impact on a child or young adult at such a difficult time. We hope that this donation will encourage others to consider supporting the charity in the same way."
