Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info The Princess of Wales is renowned for her enthusiastic participation in a wide range of activities during her Royal engagements. Whether it's an event involving children or sports, Kate is always ready to join in, from sprinting and gardening to playing hockey and practising taekwondo. She also never fails to impress with her fashion choices at public appearances – her striking aquamarine Catherine Walker dress coat, complete with ivory contrast lapels and cuffs, turned heads at the Trooping of the Colour. Complementing her outfit was a matching wide-brimmed hat by Juliette Botterill, which she wore while seated next to Princess Charlotte in the carriage procession. Kate accessorised with Queen Elizabeth's Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings, a favourite of hers that she has worn on several occasions, including the recent Qatar State Visit and Remembrance Sunday. Additionally, she sported the Irish Guards Regimental Brooch on her jacket.

This diet focuses on plant-based foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and legumes, as well as moderate amounts of lean protein from fish and poultry, low-fat dairy products, and healthy fats such as olive oil, while limiting red meat and sweets. Moreover, Kate is said to "love" preparing roast chicken for family meals and has a fondness for spicy vegetable curries, reports Cambridgeshire Live. Kate is known for her love of high-impact weight training workouts, and she exercises daily without a personal trainer, ensuring she gets enough protein for maximum benefits. Nikkita Hope-Brown, a certified PT and owner of Found, a women-only strength training studio in London, told HELLO: "You cannot build muscle without the building blocks, which is protein." She explained: "To give a metaphor, proteins are the bricks that makeup the wall, and strength training is the actual bricklaying. You cannot build a house without the actual bricks or someone doing the work of laying the bricks - you need to have both. How much protein we need depends on our goals and body, for muscle growth, typically 1.5 - 2g of protein for every kilogram we weigh." Fitness coach and founder of Owning Your Menopause, Kate Rowe-Ham, echoed this sentiment: "You can't out-train a poor diet. Muscles are built in the gym but need to recover and transform in the kitchen. To support muscle growth and recovery, it is essential to consume a high-protein diet, especially after a workout." Kate advised: "Include whole foods rich in fibre, healthy fats, and complex carbs to fuel your workouts and stabilise hormones." The Royal is reportedly a fan of starting her day with a green smoothie, much like Meghan Markle, her sister-in-law. This healthful concoction typically includes spinach, kale, blueberries and matcha. She's also known to kick-start her mornings with a bowl of slow-burning energy oats, or rolled oats, which she often pairs with milk or yoghurt, adding fruits, nuts, cinnamon, and nut butter for extra flavour. Her midday meals usually comprise salads and fruit bowls, with an emphasis on foods that enhance skin health, such as watermelon salads and gazpacho. An afternoon pick-me-up might be berries blended with almond milk, and she generally prefers lighter meals during the day. According to the Daily Mail, Kate has a penchant for raw dishes like watermelon salads, gazpacho, goji berries, tabbouleh and ceviche due to their skincare benefits. However, when it comes to dinner, she enjoys heartier, traditional English fare such as big roasts and curries. Here's a glimpse into Kate's daily food routine:. Breakfast: A staple green smoothie blending kale, spinach, spirulina, matcha, romaine lettuce, cilantro, and blueberries, or alternatively, a bowl of slow-burn energy oats. Lunch: Salads and fruit bowls are favourites, with a special focus on skin-beneficial foods like watermelon salads, gazpacho, and tabbouleh. Ceviche is also a preferred choice. Dinner: While she leans towards lighter meals during the day, Kate relishes traditional English meals or carb-rich options for tea, such as roast dinners and curries. Snacks: Olives and popcorn are said to be her go-to snacks. Beverages: She's a fan of smoothies, and is also known to sip on ginger tea.

Prince Louis steals the show at Trooping of the Colour ceremony with cheeky display
Sky News host Rita Panahi claims Prince Louis left royal fans in stitches over the weekend when he 'put on a bit of a display' on Buckingham Palace balcony during the Trooping of the Colour ceremony. 'Seven-year-old Prince Louis left royal fans in stitches on the weekend by putting on a bit of a display on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the Trooping of the Colour ceremony, prompting his older brother, Prince George, to try and calm him down,' she said. 'He seems to have worked out there that every time he waved, the crowd cheered much louder than they were, so he kept waving until the future king stepped in.'

Trooping the Colour: Royal Family Photos Through the Years
For years, tradition has been a vital part of the royal family. Among them is the Trooping the Colour, a military ceremony that has marked the celebration of the sovereign's birthday for more than 250 years. The ceremony has been a staple of the royal family since the 1800s, but it was only within the last several decades that royal fans and the monarchy's subjects got a glimpse of the royal family. That's right, we're talking about those iconic photos of members of the House of Windsor gathered on Buckingham Palace's balcony for photo ops, waving to the crowd, and watching the entire spectacle of Trooping the Colour unfold (if you've ever wondered why they're all looking up, by the way — it's to watch a fly-past of the Royal Air Force). Over the years, there've been some adorable snapshots of young Princes William and Harry — who could forget when Prince Harry stuck his tongue out when mom Princess Diana was holding him in 1988? But these photos have also served as a sort of time capsule, capturing the royal family and its prominent members year after year. As we eagerly await this year's Trooping the Colour ceremony, take a look at photos from Trooping the Colour ceremonies past below! A version of this article was originally published in June 2022.

A few months earlier, in March, the Princess had announced her cancer diagnosis and revealed she was undergoing treatment. In June, after the Trooping the Colour, she announced she was in remission. We adore this snapshot of the family at the 2023 Trooping the Colour parade. This was the first Trooping of the Colour since King Charles III ascended the throne following Queen Elizabeth's death on Sept. 8, 2022. Once again, the Wales children steal the show with their funny reactions! At the 2022 Trooping the Colour, the late Queen Elizabeth perfectly matched with her great-grandkids Prince Louis, Princess Charlotte and Prince George, in baby blue. This was her last Trooping the Colour before her death on Sept. 8, 2022. 2020 was much of the same. At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Trooping the Colour was canceled once again. Queen Elizabeth II marked her birthday with another small military ceremony at Windsor Castle. In 2019, Queen Elizabeth II was able to have the full parade and Trooping the Colour ceremony for her birthday. She was joined by a number of members of her family. 2019 also saw the entire Cambridge family enjoy the parade! And just look at Charlotte and Louis practicing their waves. 2019 also marked the last Trooping of the Colour as senior members of the royal family for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. At the time, Markle had just given birth to her son Archie, who was born on May 6. The couple left their royal duties in January 2020. Meghan Markle only attended two Trooping the Colour ceremonies during her time as a senior member of the royal family. Here she is chatting with sister-in-law Kate Middleton at the 2018 Trooping the Colour. The entire royal family gathered for the 2018 Trooping the Colour on Buckingham Palace's iconic balcony. Goodness, that's a lot of members of the House of Windsor! In 2017, the family was back on the balcony, this time with little Princess Charlotte and Prince George! George was obviously working on that wave. Here we have another snapshot of the royals during the 2016 Trooping the Colour. Princess Charlotte was just 13 months old at the time. Back in 2015, a little Prince George got to enjoy one of his first of many Trooping the Colour ceremonies! In this 2014 photo from Trooping the Colour, nearly all the prominent members of the royal family can be seen — with Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip at the front, of course. Queen Elizabeth II looked so elegant in her royal blue for Trooping the Colour in 2013. At the time, Middleton was eight months pregnant with her first son, Prince George. In this 2012 photo, all eyes were looking up during Trooping the Colour as the Royal Air Force flew past Buckingham Palace. Pictured here is Kate Middleton, Prince William, Princess Eugenie, Prince Harry and Princess Beatrice. In 2011, we really got to see just how many members of the royal family there are. This was just a few months after Middleton and Prince William tied the knot on April 29, 2011. Queen Elizabeth II broke out the pastels for 2010's Trooping the Colour, wearing a lovely lavender hue. In 2009, practically every member of the royal family was in attendance for Trooping the Colour. Look closely and you can see Queen Elizabeth II waving! Although things didn't look quite as bright and sun shiny in 2008, the royals nevertheless made their way to the balcony of Buckingham Palace for Trooping the Colour. In 2007, the family chatted amongst themselves during the Trooping the Colour ceremony. By 2006, everyone was looking up on the Buckingham Palace balcony to watch a fly-past by the Royal Air Force. This 2005 photo feels like a major throwback. Can you spot Prince William (and his full head of hair)? 2004 gave us this snapshot of a smaller party for the Trooping the Colour ceremony. Taking a break from balcony duty, Prince Harry and Prince William rode in a carriage together for the 2003 Trooping the Colour. Queen Elizabeth II gave fans a royal wave in this 2002 photo. In 2001, Queen Elizabeth II's mother, known as the Queen Mum, made an appearance at Trooping the Colour. Queen Mum passed away before the 2002 Trooping of the Colour, on March 30, 2002. Queen Elizabeth II rode solo in this 2000 photo after Trooping the Colour. It was practically all smiles on the Buckingham Palace balcony in this photo from the 1999 Trooping the Colour. Pictured here are the Duchess of Edinburgh, Prince Edward, Rear-admiral Timothy Laurence and Princess Anne. Queen Elizabeth II directed everyone's gaze upward in this 1998 photo from Trooping the Colour. Queen Elizabeth II looked like she was having a jolly good time in this photo from the 1993 Trooping the Colour. Nearly every royal lady brought out her best hat for 1992's Trooping the Colour. This was the late Princess Diana's last Trooping of the Colour. She and King Charles separated in 1992 and divorced four years later in 1996. Who could forget this iconic photo of Prince Harry being oh so cheeky at the 1988 Trooping the Colour? Princess Diana stood next to Queen Elizabeth II in this photo from 1987's Trooping the Colour. In this 1986 snapshot from Trooping the Colour, Prince Charles and Princess Diana can be seen anxiously watching over one of their boys. In this 1985 photo from Trooping the Colour, Prince Charles expertly holds son Prince Harry, giving mom Princess Diana a bit of a reprieve. Princes Charles was back on dad duty in this 1984 Trooping the Colour photo, too! Queen Elizabeth II had a bit of a giggle in this 1983 Trooping the Colour photo. Princess Anne, Princess Diana, and Prince Charles chatted together in this 1981 photo taken during Trooping the Colour. This was the late Princess Diana's first Trooping of the Colour.

Kate Middleton's Low-Key Comeback Moment You Might Have Missed at Trooping the Colour
Kate Middleton is standing at attention with King Charles and Queen Camilla in a significant scene at Trooping the Colour. On June 14, the Princess of Wales, 43, joined her father-in-law the King and Queen Camilla to appear on the dais at Horse Guards Parade at Trooping the Colour. As Colonel-in-Chief of the Irish Guards — one of the seven regiments of the British Army's Household Division that take part in the event — Princess Kate's presence was both ceremonial and symbolic. It's a spot of honor to stand alongside the King and Queen, and marks a meaningful return for Kate. Although she watched the festivities from the dais in 2023, she did not take on any additional ceremonial role in 2024, as she was in the midst of cancer treatment. This year's participation signals a step forward — and a powerful statement of strength and continuity. King Charles was also diagnosed with cancer in 2024. While Princess Kate announced earlier this year that she is in remission after completing chemotherapy in September, the King's treatment is still ongoing. Princess Kate paid tribute to the Irish Guards by pinning on the unit's regimental brooch for the Trooping celebrations on Saturday, a key event on the royal family's calendar. Trooping the Colour is the Household Division's 265-year-old tradition of commemorating the British monarch's official birthday with an epic display of military precision, horsemanship and fanfare. Kate watched the actual Trooping of the Colour (or ceremonial presentation of flags, which the Coldstream Guards is presenting this year) from the dais, as her children waited for her close by. Can't get enough of PEOPLE's Royals coverage? to get the latest updates on Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle and more! With Prince William on horseback as Colonel-in-Chief of the Welsh Guards, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, watched the pageantry from the Major General's Office, a room overlooking the parade ground.
