The long-held rumor regarding Kate Middleton’s April 29, 2011 wedding day to Prince William was that she did her own makeup for the occasion. It turns out, though, that the public has gotten it wrong, according to a new interview with makeup artist Bobbi Brown.
Brown, speaking on a recent episode of the “Breaking Beauty” podcast, wasn’t the one to do the honors, but Kate did use Bobbi Brown products, applied by makeup artist Hannah Martin.
“I didn’t do her makeup,” Brown said. “I wish I did. It was one of my artists, Hannah Martin, who’s become quite a sensation in the U.K.”
Though reports claimed over the past 14 years that the Princess of Wales had done her own makeup after taking makeup lessons, Brown set the record straight once and for all: “Hannah did her makeup,” she said.
“Hannah did give me some information that I should set my alarm and watch,” Brown continued. “We were texting back and forth, and she’s like, ‘Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.’”
