Princess Kate and Prince William swapped Kensington Palace for Lambeth Palace in central London to meet with the new Archbishop of Canterbury, the Most Reverend Sarah Mullally. Lambeth Palace, which is the official residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury, is only about 15 minutes from their London residence at Kensington Palace, where Prince William had official meetings earlier in the day. In a formal sitting room, the Prince and Princess of Wales spoke about the beautiful gardens and greenspace surrounding the palace, with Princess Kate noting “it's actually amazing how much greenness there is.”
Sarah Mullally is a former nurse who recently stepped into the historic role as Archbishop of Canterbury. Her role is exceptionally historic, as she is the first woman to serve as the leader of the Church of England and ceremonial head of the Anglican Communion. The Archbishop recently met with King Charles, who is officially the head of the Church of England, and praised his “deep Christian faith.”
