This week, members of the Royal Family have been honoring those who paid the ultimate sacrifice during Remembrance Day events. Prince George made his debut at the Festival of Remembrance on Saturday, and now mom Princess Kate is marking a first in her own path to the throne. On Tuesday, November 11, the Princess of Wales made a solo appearance at the National Memorial Arboretum's Armed Forces Memorial in Staffordshire, England.

Typically, it's a blood member of the Royal Family who takes part in the event, but the Princess of Wales represented the crown during Tuesday's Service of Remembrance. Duchess Sophie has also made a solo appearance at the annual service, showing her influence as a senior member of the Royal Family.
