Kate Middleton broke royal protocol in March 2021 when she attended the memorial for Sarah Everard on Clapham Common in London. According to a royal expert, Princess Kate's unannounced visit made a "subtle point" about the royal's priorities, via the Daily Mail.
On March 3, 2021, Everard was abducted, raped, and murdered by police officer Wayne Couzens. People across the United Kingdom shared their shock and devastation for Everard and her family, and many gathered to pay their respects at a memorial on Clapham Common.
