Royal fans have cheered on Kate Middleton over her decision to attend the Houghton Festival over the weekend, arguing the Princess of Wales deserves fun, while others simply couldn’t believe the royal was there.

Kate was caught letting loose at the electronic music festival in Norfolk, England alongside her two friends David and Rose Cholmondeley (née Hanbury). A fast-acting fan snapped a picture of the 41-year-old donning an off-the-shoulder black top, matching skinny jeans, Veja Campo sneakers, chunky gold earrings, and an ice-cold drink in hand. The photograph was then shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, by user @JazzWild and captioned: “One of the boys snapped Kate Middleton at Houghton.”
