A BBC star playfully told the Princess of Wales to “watch out” when praising her former partner from Wales.
Elise Revett, 25, from Essex, shared the lighthearted remark on social media following her appearance on the show “I Kissed a Girl”.
Writing about her ex-girlfriend Elisha Davies, who was raised in Carmarthenshire, Ms Revett posted: “I wish Elisha all the best for her future as not only the Queen of Wales (watch out Catherine) but also the Queen of Barbie lesbians.”
The “Queen of Wales” joke is an obvious nod to Catherine’s official title as Princess of Wales.

Catherine, 44, has held the Princess of Wales title since 2022, when King Charles ascended to the throne.
Before this, Prince William and Catherine were known as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
The Princess of Wales title is among the most senior in the British Royal Family, traditionally belonging to the wife of the heir apparent.
Its holder is typically expected to become the future Queen Consort of the United Kingdom.

Diana, Princess of Wales, was the previous person to publicly use the title.
Queen Camilla, though legally entitled to it upon her marriage to Charles, chose not to use it out of respect for Diana, instead going by Duchess of Cornwall.
Ms Revett and Ms Davies formed a strong bond early in I Kissed A Girl, navigating various challenges together before officially becoming girlfriends during the programme’s run.
Following the finale, both confirmed on Instagram that they had parted ways since filming concluded.

PAMs Davies wrote on her social media that while she and Ms Revett are no longer a couple, “there is still sooo much love there”, describing their time on the show as “a magical journey”.
Ms Revett echoed these sentiments, expressing continued “love and admiration” for Ms Davies, adding that she “couldn’t have done it without her”.
The BBC axed both “I Kissed a Girl” and its companion show “I Kissed a Boy” earlier this year. The shows were the UK’s first dating series specifically for the LGBTQ+ community.
A spokesman for the broadcaster said: “Unfortunately, we have to make difficult choices in light of our funding challenges and there are no current plans for the show to return.”
Presenter Dannii Minogue said: “I’m so proud the show has given us the chance to celebrate so many people from the LGBTQ+ community, who made up our cast.”
