Keira Knightley denies criticizing Kate Middleton?s post-birth appearance in an essay she wrote.
Business Insider reports Knightley made headlines for a graphic essay she wrote called "The Weaker Sex."
In the essay, Knightley mentions Middleton's appearance when leaving the hospital hours after giving birth in 2015.
"She [Kate] was out of hospital seven hours later with her face made up and high heels on. The face the world wants to see. ... Hide our pain, our bodies splitting, our breasts leaking, our hormones raging.

On Thursday, Knightley clarified her statements at the 2018 BFI London Film Festival.
I would suggest to those people in the media that they re-read the entirety of the essay and not just take one bit out of it because the comments that I made are completely about our culture that silences women's truths and forces us all to hide and I absolutely did not shame anybody in any way, in fact quite the opposite.

Knightley?s essay appears in the book ?Feminists Don?t Wear Pink (And Other Lies).
