Princess Kate’s Trooping the Colour Appearance Took a Toll on Her, Royal Author Says

Britain's Catherine, Princess of Wales, rides the Glass State Coach at Horse Guards Parade during the King's Birthday Parade "Trooping the Colour" in London on June 15, 2024. .

The Princess of Wales was nothing short of stunning at Saturday’s Trooping the Colour—her first foray back into royal life and public duty since her diagnosis of cancer earlier this year. Prior to Saturday, Kate hadn’t been seen at a royal engagement since Christmas Day nearly six months prior; she underwent a planned abdominal surgery at The London Clinic in January that ultimately detected cancer, and announced that fact, bravely, to the world on March 22. She has been receiving treatment since.

Kate accompanied her three children George, Charlotte, and Louis in the carriage procession at Saturday's (very rainy) Trooping the Colour, and later stood with them on the Buckingham Palace balcony. (Image credit: Getty Images)
