Princess Kate Is Unlikely to Wear a Tiara This Year, Despite Returning to Royal Duties

Royal fans have been delighted to witness Princess Kate returning to her official duties in recent months. In September, the Princess of Wales announced she'd completed preventative chemotherapy treatment following her cancer diagnosis. However, Kate Middleton is unlikely to wear a tiara this year, which is seriously disappointing news for royal aficionados.

Royal experts previously predicted that Princess Kate would wear a tiara at a state banquet in December. King Charles and Queen Camilla will host the state visit, which is for the Amir of Qatar, His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, and his wife, Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher bint Hamad bin Suhaim Al Thani. However, just this week, the Palace confirmed that Princess Kate would skip the evening banquet, instead greeting the royal guests in the daytime.
