Warning Issued For Fake Royal Doll Containing Nasty Chemicals

A batch of fake Duchess Kate Middleton dolls have been seized on their way into the UK because they contain chemicals which can cause cancer.

The children’s toy, dubbed the ‘Princess Catherine Doll’, allegedly has dangerous levels of the compound DEHP, reports Daily Mail.

Fears that parents may have already bought the doll, which is supposed to resemble the Duchess of Cambridge, as children’s Christmas presents.

The dolls have flowing dark hair and are wearing a gold metallic sequined gown.

Officials have voiced concern that children who are unknowingly gifted the toy by parents or relatives may chew the dolls or suck their hands after playing with it.

Other risks include the possibility that it could make the children infertile later in life and is therefore banned in all child-related products.

If you have a little Duchess fan please do not buy them this doll!

Good to see them removed from the market. These dolls don’t look anywhere near to Kate Middleton

So pleased they were seized coming in to the UK. Problem might be if anyone sourced the doll online.

I’m also concerned they may be able to pull bits off or chew the tiara.

Cheap often means cutting corners – sometimes dangerous ones.

I hope no-one bought this doll. Who would make this doll and try to sell it to children are sickos. To think it could do this to children is disgusting.

Oh my goodness, how do any company make these products knowing the possible health concerns. I just can’t fathom how they can live with themselves.
