Prior to Middleton's royal tour in Sweden and Norway, it was learned that she had a haircut four months ago. The Duchess reportedly donated her hair to a charity that makes a high-quality wig for children with cancer, but she kept her identity a secret.
"Four months ago Joey persuaded her it was time to take off some of her hair, he said it was just getting too long. While Joey was snipping away the idea came to her of doing some good with it rather than throwing it away," the source said.
"She mentioned it to Joey, who thought it was a brilliant idea. It was sent using someone else's name, so that the trust didn't know it was from a royal source – they just thought it was from a female donor in the Kensington area."
