Kate had endured dental surgery, but some fans thought she had gone under the knife. 

One reacted to the photo by writing: "You don’t need work done to your face. This is a bad example to young girls growing up saying you can’t age gracefully.

"She was quickly defended by other fans who pointed out she had dental work, not plastic surgery and Kate couldn't help but comment too.

"PSA to all young women do not get your wisdom teeth removed because this [expletive] doesn’t like it," she wrote. "I’m sorry for setting a bad example and not just letting myself get an infection, not treat it, get sepsis and die. Because that’s what a good example setting woman would do."

She was previously quizzed on getting work done on her face and Kate responded with a defiant answer.

"I haven’t had a facelift or filler or Botox," she wrote as she reacted to more questions about her appearance. "I’m not lying and I don't have to accept people accusing me of things I haven’t done."
