Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, has shared her first statement since undergoing major abdominal surgery, marking a significant milestone as she recovers and celebrates her new title. Joined by Prince William, the Duke of Cambridge, the royal couple took to social media to express their joy and gratitude as the Princess of Wales regains her health.
In a heartwarming display, the Prince and Princess of Wales’s social media accounts shared their first joint statement since concerns arose about royal health, celebrating their new titles while also marking the occasion of St David’s Day.
On Friday, Kensington Palace released an adorable video featuring Prince William and Princess Kate, wherein they shared their sentiments with their followers. In their statement, the royal couple expressed their pride in their roles as Colonel and Colonel-in-Chief of the Welsh Guards and 1st The Queen’s Dragoon Guards, extending warm wishes for St David’s Day.
However, a momentary blip occurred when royal aides had to correct a social media post that inaccurately stated Prince William and Princess Kate’s new royal ranks. As March 1st marks St David’s Day, a cherished celebration in Wales, the correction was swiftly made, recognizing the significance of the day in the royal calendar.
Last year, the couple honored the special occasion by visiting the Welsh Guards for the St David’s Day Parade, underscoring their commitment to their roles and engagements.
Kate Middleton was appointed as the Colonel-in-Chief of 1st The Queen’s Dragoon Guards by King Charles in August 2023, while Prince William assumed the role of Colonel of the Welsh Guards in December 2022.
