Kate Middleton Leads Irish Guards' St. Patrick's Day Parade After Cancer Recovery

The Princess of Wales makes her first solo appearance as Colonel of the Irish Guards, marking a return to public duties following her remission.

Kate Middleton attended the Irish Guards' St. Patrick's Day Parade in London, her first since revealing her cancer diagnosis last year.
This was her first solo appearance at the event as Colonel of the Irish Guards, a role she assumed in 2023 after her husband, Prince William.
The Princess presented operational and long-service medals to soldiers, honored their service in Iraq, and upheld the tradition of distributing shamrocks.
She engaged with soldiers, veterans, and families, and joined the regiment in celebrating their 125th anniversary with a toast and a half pint of Guinness.
Kate wore a dark green Alexander McQueen coat paired with a gold shamrock brooch, symbolizing her connection to the regiment and the occasion.
