The Princess of Wales is in the midst of her first public appearance since Christmas Day 2023, with her three children in tow.
Princes George and Louis, along with Princess Charlotte, were photographed beaming alongside their mother as they rode in a carriage during today’s Trooping the Colour.
Media darling Prince Louis has already been seen making some faces and pointing at various things along the carriage route.
Crowds have lined the route of the parade route, though most have had to resort to hoods and umbrellas as it starts to rain in London.
The massive parade will make its way through central London and huge crowds are already starting to gather in the hope of catching a glimpse of the royal family.
And the royal children will have a front seat for the entire parade.
Kate issued a statement ahead of her appearance today, reading :’ ‘I have been blown away by all the kind messages of support and encouragement over the last couple of months. It really has made the world of difference to William and me and has helped us both through some of the harder times.
‘My treatment is ongoing and will be for a few more months. On the days I feel well enough, it is a joy to engage with school life, spend personal time on the things that give me energy and positivity, as well as starting to do a little work from home.
‘I am learning how to be patient, especially with uncertainty. Taking each day as it comes, listening to my body, and allowing myself to take this much needed time to heal.’
