Giving an\u00a0update about her health, Kate announced that she\u2019d attend Trooping the Colour. She also confirmed that she\u2019s\u00a0<em>\u201cmaking good progress\u201d<\/em>\u00a0but that she is\u00a0<em>\u201cnot out of the woods yet\u201d<\/em>, and that she\u2019s still receiving treatment.Kate added that she\u2019s experiencing\u00a0<em>\u201cgood days and bad days\u201d\u00a0<\/em>and that she plans to\u00a0<em>\u201cjoin a few public engagements\u201d\u00a0<\/em>over the summer if she continues to feel well.Trooping the Colour, also known as The King\u2019s Birthday Parade, is an annual military ceremony celebrating the official birthday of the British Sovereign.The event showcases a patriotic display involving hundreds of soldiers, horses, and musicians in the King\u2019s honour.This year\u2019s parade involved 242 military working horses, 250 military musicians, 40 pipers and drummers, an extremely large dog, and more than a thousand dual-role soldiers of the British Army\u2019s Household Division. (Below, the Irish Guards\u2019 regimental Irish Wolfhound mascot Turlough Mor.)The parade begins at Buckingham Palace with a procession down The Mall to Horse Guard\u2019s Parade.The Princess of Wales was joined by her three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.The Wales children looked smart in their coordinating outfits, matching their mother\u2019s monochrome ensemble.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This is the third time the children have accompanied their mother at the parade to date.This year, Kate rode in the Glass Coach.The Glass Coach is one of the primary ceremonial carriages of the British royal family. Created in 1881, it was purchased by The Crown for the coronation of King George V in 1911.The Glass Coach makes appearances at various state events each year but is most famously known for its role in royal weddings. It transported Princess Margaret to her wedding in 1960 and Lady Diana Spencer in 1981. It also carried Princess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh after their wedding in 1947.This is the first time in 12 years that Kate has processed in the Glass Coach \u2014 I expect it was a decision made for her comfort, to shelter her from the cold and rain given her diagnosis. I believe Queen Elizabeth II rode in the coach during\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/katemiddletonstyle.org\/kate-wears-blue-erdem-outfit-for-trooping-the-colour-ceremony\/\">2012\u2019s Trooping the Colour<\/a>\u00a0for similar reasons.The weather was particularly unseasonable this year. It was a very wet and windy day:During some moments of the parade, the glass windows became misty with condensation. The princes and princesses attempted to clean the windows with their hands so they could still wave to the gathered crowds:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>William didn\u2019t join his immediate family in the carriage. As is tradition, the keen and experienced horseman took part in the procession on horseback. This year, he saddled a horse named Darby.In his role as honorary Colonel of the Welsh Guards, the Prince wore the regiment\u2019s distinctive red uniform and traditional bearskin cap.He rode alongside his uncle, Prince Edward and aunt, Princess Anne.King Charles usually rides in the parade on horseback too. This year, he decided to travel by carriage, following his own cancer diagnosis and treatment.He rode in the Scottish State Coach with the Queen.Here\u2019s the Duchess of Edinburgh in the procession. She opted for a beautiful sunny yellow hue:Her Daughter, Lady Louise in blue florals:The procession arrived at Horse Guard\u2019s Parade where the traditional ceremony took place:Once the Sovereign has arrived at Horse Guard\u2019s Parade in Whitehall, they are greeted by a Royal salute and carry out an inspection of the troops, who are fully trained and operational soldiers wearing the ceremonial uniform of red tunics and bearskin hats.After the military bands have performed, the\u00a0escorted Regimental Colour, or flag, is processed down the ranks of soldiers. Over one hundred\u00a0words of command are used by the Officer in Command of the Parade to direct the several hundred\u00a0soldiers.Once the Foot Guards have marched past the Sovereign, they ride back to Buckingham Palace\u00a0at the head of the soldiers, before taking the salute again at the Palace from a dais.The king, on the dais, watching the proceedings:This year, the Irish Guards \u2018trooped their colour\u2019 (or carried their flag) through the ranks.The practice dates back to the 17th century when the colours served as rallying points on the battlefield. The honour to \u2018Troop the Colour\u2019 rotates through the five regiments of Foot Guards.King Charles watching the proceedings with Camilla:Saluting the guardsmen:Kate and the Wales family watching from a nearby window.<a href=\"https:\/\/katemiddletonstyle.org\/trooping-the-colour-2023\/\">Last year<\/a>, the Princess had a seat outside on the dais (pictured below). I expect she watched from inside this year due to the awful weather and her health condition.After the ceremony, the Royal Family made their way inside Buckingham Palace, to the famous balcony.Here, they watched the conclusion of the parade, an RAF fly-past.On Saturday afternoon, the Prince and Princess\u2019s team uploaded a video to their official social media account. The 20 second clip features Kate, George, Charlotte and Louis leaving Buckingham Palace and getting into the Glass Coach. Watch carefully and you\u2019ll see an enthusiastic Louis hop down a set of white steps as his mother, sister and brother walk across a red carpet:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kate Middleton returned to the public eye on Saturday: &nbsp; The Princess of Wales attended\u00a0Trooping The Colour\u00a0in London wearing a stunning white and black dress and matching hat for her first public appearance of&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2551,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2550","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
