The BBC sends an unusual statement to deny that Kate Middleton's video was edited. After its publication, the BBC limited itself to publishing the brief statement acknowledging the authorship of the video: " BBC Studios filmed a message from the Princess of Wales in Windsor this week.

We would like to wish her Royal Highness a speedy recovery" The BBC did not participate in the preparation of the message that was transmitted or in the distribution of thevideo, nor did it make any modifications to the recording.
