The 41-year-old Prince and Princess of Wales appeared together. It was an eventful day for Kate as she had previously appeared at Wimbledon to pay her respects to tennis legend Roger Federer. The wife of the heir to the throne managed to change her clothes for a large tea party, which was organized for employees of the National Health Service at St. Thomas’s Hospital in London. The event was dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the founding of the NHS.
The couple arrived early to help set up the tables, decorate the birthday cake and even try their hand at making cupcakes. The princess chose a blue midi dress with white polka dots of her favorite brand Alessandra Rich worth 1515 pounds (172 thousand rubles). An expensive item from Kate’s wardrobe is justified by the fact that she wears it more than once.
In this outfit, the representative of the British monarchy first appeared at the last Wimbledon, then she wore it to an event as part of the celebration of the 70th anniversary of the accession of Queen Elizabeth II to the throne last summer. The look of the wife of the heir to the throne was complemented by classic white stilettos. For jewelry, Kate chose diamond earrings and her usual blue sapphire ring.
When William was asked to help decorate the cupcakes, he was at a loss. The prince applied an overly generous portion of the cream. “Will it be tasty?” the heir to the throne asked as Kate burst out laughing and covered her mouth with her hand. After the guests were seated in the hospital garden, the royal couple came out with a huge birthday cake to everyone’s surprise.
The Prince and Princess of Wales spoke to doctors, veterans, researchers and people on the front lines during the fight against the coronavirus pandemic. Among them was Blanche Hines, who worked as a nurse for nearly 50 years. She inspired the next two generations of her family to work in medicine. “What some of you have accomplished is incredible. It’s a great opportunity to say thank you for everything. That’s why William and I wanted to come here and say thank you, wish you a happy birthday,” Kate Middleton is quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.
The couple became Royal Patrons of NHS charities in December 2020, amid the pandemic. The Prince and Princess of Wales have helped raise more than £160 million to fight the coronavirus.
