Prince William and King Charles attended the Garter Day service at Windsor Castle but Kate Middleton was not present with them.
Father and son, along with Queen Camilla and other members of the royal family, attended the traditional celebration marking the ancient Order of the Garter this afternoon, kicking off the busy royal summer season. This beloved event follows closely on the heels of the King’s birthday parade, Trooping the Colour, where Kate made her highly anticipated first public appearance since disclosing her cancer diagnosis.
Despite her return, Kate’s ongoing treatment means she is not yet resuming full-time royal duties.
According to royal sources, her public engagements will be based on how she feels at any given time. Today’s Order of the Garter ceremony and the upcoming Royal Ascot festival, starting tomorrow, are not included in her current duties.
