In a 2009 interview, the Prince said: "I call it my Harry Potter scar because it glows sometimes and some people notice it—other times they don't notice it at all.
"I got hit by a golf club when I was playing golf with a friend of mine. We were on a putting green, and the next thing you know, there was a seven-iron, and it came out of nowhere, and it hit me in the head."

Although the reason behind Kate’s childhood scar is not quite revealed, a consultant surgeon spoke to Daily Mail, saying that it could have been a result of a minor procedure.
"I really doubt it was any serious medical condition, and I would say it is as a result of an arteriovenous malformation—a birthmark—being removed,” said the surgeon.
Even though the Duchess does not quite acknowledge her scar when she’s out in public, Prince William finds no reason to hide his scar. He has also been photographed showing the scar to kids at a hospital.
