Princess Kate met Beatles legend Paul McCartney and his wife Nancy Shevell in 2018 when she reopened the National Portrait Gallery in London. During their conversation, McCartney joked about the age gap between Kate and his wife, who are 22 years apart.

"You weren't even born when these were taken," McCartney said to Kate, referring to some of the photos in his exhibition. He then turned to his wife and said, "Oh, you weren't either." Nancy laughed and replied, "I very much was."
The exchange was captured on video and quickly went viral. Some people found it to be in poor taste, while others thought it was just a harmless joke. McCartney later apologized for any offense he may have caused, saying that he was just trying to be funny.
Regardless of how people felt about the joke, it's clear that McCartney and Kate have a good relationship. They met several times after their initial encounter, and McCartney even invited Kate and her family to his 75th birthday party in 2021.
It's always fun to see celebrities interact with each other, and this exchange between McCartney and Kate is a perfect example of that. It's a reminder that even the most famous people are just people, and they can still enjoy a good laugh.
