This morning, the official Kensington Palace Instagram account delighted its followers with a look back at March – a visually appealing and informative recap of the month’s highlights. From candid moments to dramatic appearances, Duchess Catherine and Prince William had an eventful and eventful month. Instagram stories shared a stunning collection of photos and videos, leaving royal enthusiasts eagerly awaiting more.
The first slide in the March recap introduced a side of Prince William that many had never seen before. Recorded during the St David’s Day celebrations, the video showed a refreshingly authentic and engaging William. This was followed by a powerful image of the prince during a visit to the Royal Berkshire Hospital on 5 March, demonstrating his commitment to healthcare, engaging with both staff and patients.
One of the most striking moments in the recap was the stunning image of both Prince William and Princess Catherine on Commonwealth Day. The princess, always the epitome of elegance and poise, wore a sophisticated red Catherine Walker dress a style she has worn before, demonstrating her ability to seamlessly combine sustainability and style. Royal watchers noticed a marked change in her body language, exuding confidence and warmth as the couple made a rare public display of affection, an adorable sight that left fans swooning.
Rewinding back to March, viewers were treated to a delightful sight of the princess enjoying a pint of beer in honor of St. Patrick's Day. However, her presence at the event was more than just a simple holiday greeting. Princess Catherine proudly stepped into the role of Colonel of the Irish Guards, an esteemed position she will assume after King Charles ascends the throne in September 2022. It was her first time taking on the role since 2023, making the occasion all the more meaningful.
Meanwhile, Prince William has had an equally busy schedule, with one of his most impactful moments taking place at Aberdine. Kensington Palace shared an emotional video from his visit, highlighting his involvement in the Homewards initiative, an ambitious project to combat homelessness. The prince was seen engaging directly with those affected, reinforcing his dedication to social causes and further cementing his legacy as a compassionate and pragmatic leader.
As March came to a close, the event fittingly ended with a much-talked-about Mother's Day video from Princess Catherine. The personal and introspective message featured breathtaking nature imagery and was accompanied by a very meaningful note from the princess herself. She wrote, "Over the past year, nature has been our refuge. This Mother's Day, let us celebrate Mother Nature and recognise our connection to the natural world, which not only nourishes us internally but also reminds us of our role in the rich tapestry of life." Her words touched the hearts of many, highlighting the importance of reconnecting with nature and embracing its nurturing power.
The final slide of the March recap featured a simple yet heartfelt thank you from Kensington Palace, a tribute to the public for their continued support and enthusiasm. With such an exciting month behind them, all eyes are now on the royal couple as they move into April. Will they continue to surprise and inspire? If March is any indication, there is no doubt that Prince William and Duchess Catherine will once again be in the spotlight for their grace, commitment and unwavering devotion to their royal duties.
