Overview

• Princess Kate returned to attend the annual Order of the Garter ceremony at St George’s Chapel on June 16 after sitting out last year for cancer treatment.
• She and Prince William arrived by carriage and joined King Charles III, Queen Camilla and other knights in the traditional procession from Windsor Castle.
• For the service, the Princess of Wales chose a cream-white Self-Portrait ensemble previously worn in May, pairing it with a matching hat and pearl accessories.
• The Most Noble Order of the Garter, founded by Edward III in 1348, remains the United Kingdom’s highest chivalric honour with a limited membership.
• Kate’s three children did not attend Garter Day after appearing at Trooping the Colour, and Duchess Sophie accompanied her during the Windsor procession.
