As a royal correspondent, I was taken aback by the unexpected developments in the world of monarchy this month. The initial reports about Kate Middleton attending a dress rehearsal for Trooping the Colour turned out to be false, causing confusion about her attendance at the event celebrating King Charles’s birthday. However, Princess Catherine surprised everyone by appearing at Trooping the Colour and sharing an update on her health and new photo on social media.
On the day of the event, Princess Catherine rode in the Glass Coach with her three children before joining the rest of the royal family on the Buckingham Palace balcony. She looked stunning in a knee-length white dress by Jenny Packham, which she had previously worn before the king’s coronation last year. The dress featured new details and was a recycled ensemble that the sustainability advocate princess proudly wore again.
Despite all the royal news that has been making headlines this month, Princess Catherine’s fashion choice did not go unnoticed. Her commitment to sustainability and willingness to recycle iconic looks deserves applause. It’s clear that even in the midst of royal duties and appearances, she remains true to her values.
