Kate Middleton Share Health Update After Attending King Charles’ Bday Parade – Full story

On a drizzling Saturday morning in London, she was seen smiling in a horse-drawn carriage with her three children as the procession made its way from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade. Prince Louis, 6, was captured waving to the crowds from the carriage window.

Katie Nicholl, an NBC News royal contributor, said Kate’s appearance was a “wonderful surprise” after months without a public appearance.

Kate was later seen on the balcony at Buckingham Palace with Prince William, Charles, and Queen Camilla.The annual military ceremony celebrates the British monarch’s official birthday, with Charles also in attendance after his cancer diagnosis.

“Most of us are surprised that she is here today,” Nicholl said. “We know that as the King and the Princess of Wales have gone through this cancer journey together, they’ve very much been supporting each other behind the scenes. Well this is the ultimate show of support.”

As the ceremony began, a convoy of royal carriages left the palace with the King and Queen escorted by the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, before Charles carried out the ceremonial review of the guardsmen and officers from his carriage.
