Princess Kate made a triumphant return to the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey today, after missing last year’s event due to her cancer treatment.
The Princess of Wales, 43, joined King Charles and other senior royals for the annual celebration of the global ‘family of nations’.
Kate delighted royal fans with her appearance, marking her continued return to public duties.

The Princess stunned in a striking red Catherine Walker Beau Tie coat dress, paired with a matching £450 Gina Foster hat.
The wool creation features pleats and a bow at the neckline, a design Kate has worn on several previous occasions including the Together at Christmas carol service.
She accessorised with the four-row Japanese pearl choker that was part of Queen Elizabeth II’s personal jewellery collection.
Similar Catherine Walker dresses typically cost around £3,000, highlighting the Princess’s preference for the British designer who also created pieces for Princess Diana.
