Kate Middleton criticized for wearing green to BAFTAs despite all
Kate Middleton
Fans have a royal bone to pick with  Kate Middleton .
 The pregnant duchess  was criticized on Sunday for walking the red carpet in a flowy green gown at the British Academy Film Awards after attendees were encouraged to wear all black in support of the Timeâs Up movement. The all-black dress code first came up during the Golden Globes in January.
 Middleton   who is expecting  her  third child with Prince William  had a black velvet ribbon underneath her bust. She accessorized with a black clutch and heels along with emerald jewelry.
However  some viewers took to social media to criticize  the 36-year-old duchess  for not showing support for the womenâs movement. Many people said Timeâs Up isnât about politics  but rather about raising awareness about sexual harassment and assault against women.
Another person wrote  âI know the Royals arenât supposed to get involved with 'protests' or anythingâ¦ but would it really have been THAT bad for  Kate Middleton  to wear black???â
â Kate Middleton  shuns #timesup black dress code  clearly not a womanâs woman!â read another tweet.
Some people came to  Middleton âs defense and said the duchess was just following royal protocol. Actress Allison Janney also addressed the green dress controversy  saying she âwould never judge anyoneâs choice.â
