Kate Middleton Makes a Statement in a Familiar Hat During Surprise Appearance

Kate Middleton Wows in a Familiar Hat During Surprise Appearance

The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, made a stunning surprise appearance at a service at Crathie Kirk Church on the Balmoral Estate, her first visit since announcing her cancer diagnosis ¹. She was seen attending the service with her husband, Prince William, and the rest of the royal family, including King Charles and Queen Camilla

Middleton wore a beige Marlborough Trench Coat from Holland Cooper and paired it with a dark brown Suffolk Fedora from Hicks & Brown ¹. But what caught everyone’s attention was her familiar hat, which features a gamebird feather ¹. She had previously worn the same hat last year during her visit to the Scottish church, where she paired it with a similar tartan trench coat

It’s no secret that Middleton is a fan of recycling her outfits, and this is not the first time she’s worn the same outfit on multiple occasions ¹. In fact, she’s been spotted wearing the same stunning Jenny Packham white dress from this year’s Trooping the Colour, which she also wore at King Charles’s coronation in 2023 ¹. And who can forget her striking red-and-white coatdress from Catherine Walker & Co., which she wore at a rugby match last year and during her visit to Stockholm, Sweden ¹?

Middleton’s recent church visit comes just a few weeks after she and her husband made a surprise video appearance to support Team GB at the 2024 Paris Olympics ¹. The royal family is certainly keeping busy, and we can’t get enough of Middleton’s stylish outfits and appearances!
