This year’s Trooping the Colour celebrations saw the entire Wales family step out together, with Prince William, Princess Kate, and their three children all taking part in the King’s official birthday festivities.
The annual royal event unfolded under sunny skies in central London, one of the most significant occasions on the royal calendar. From private car moments to public carriage rides, the day was filled with striking visuals and warm family interactions.
Arrival at Buckingham Palace
Princess Kate, 43, arrived by car at Buckingham Palace alongside Prince William, 42, and their children—11-year-old Prince George, 10-year-old Princess Charlotte, and seven-year-old Prince Louis.
A candid photo captured the family seated inside the vehicle. Charlotte and George appear to be looking across the car, while Louis and Kate are seated nearest the window. In one frame, Kate is seen smiling brightly, while William seems mid-conversation as they pull up to the gates.
Kate chose a vibrant aquamarine coatdress by Catherine Walker, complete with sharp ivory cuffs and lapels that added structure and contrast.
She paired it with a wide-brimmed hat by Juliette Botterill, detailed with floral accents. Her accessories included a pair of pearl and diamond earrings once owned by Queen Elizabeth II and her Irish Guards Regimental Brooch.
Notably, her outfit echoed Charlotte’s soft aqua-blue dress, creating a subtle and elegant mother-daughter style moment.
The Royal Carriage Procession
Kate and the children rode in an Ascot Landau carriage for the ceremonial procession. King Charles and Queen Camilla also rode in a carriage, while Prince William participated on horseback.
In one image, Kate is seated next to Louis, with Charlotte and George across from them. The children appear calm and observant as they pass through the crowd-lined streets.
Charlotte wore her hair in a braided style, complementing her delicately pleated dress with short puff sleeves. George looked dapper in a suit and red tie, while Louis sat beside his mother in a dark coat.
