Kate Middleton wore a pink dress to make five-year-old girl's dreams come true

Kate Middleton Mila Sneddon Josie Gibson Chemotherapy

The Duchess of Cambridge made a little girl's princess dreams come true by dressing in pink to meet her. In the run up to engagements, Kate is often advised on what to wear by professional stylists, but allowed a five-year-old to consult her on a very special occasion last year.

Mila Sneddon, a five-year-old girl undergoing chemotherapy for leukaemia, had one wish: she wanted to see a real-life princess wearing her favourite colour - pink. Kate, who has become a style icon for women and young girls alike since joining the Royal Family, invited young Mila to the Queen's home in Edinburgh in May 2021.

Speaking to Mila over the phone before they met, Kate promised her that she would wear pink to meet her in Scotland, CambridgeshireLive reports. When the special day arrived, Mila and Kate were matching in their pink dresses, with Kate wearing a hot pink number and Mila wearing a baby pink dress when they met at the Palace of Holyroodhouse.
