Kate shines for Chemo: Triumph on the state visit to London!

Buckingham Palace, London, UK - On December 3, 2024, the British Royals received the rulers of Qatar for a solemn state visit to London. Princess Kate, who made her fight against cancer after her chemotherapy, shone on this occasion. She actively took part in the side of Prince William, while Queen Camilla was unable to take part in the ceremony due to a continuing breast infection that she contracted during a visit abroad. The reception began with a ceremonial greeting by King Charles III, who welcomed the Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and his wife, Sheikha Jawaher, on the Paradeplatz Horse Guards Parade. According to information from Krone Kate wore a tailor-made burgundy-colored coat at this important event, which perfectly matched her headgear and also combined the impressive pearl and diamond neck band of the deceased Queen Elizabeth.

State banquet without Kate

Although Kate determined the reception of the Qatarical Royals, she had to leave out the planned state banquet in the evening, as she is still in the recovery phase and only participates in selected dates. Instead, a lunch took place in the Buckingham Palace, where Camilla was present despite her absence on the arrival of the guests, such as cnn reported. The Emir's state visit also includes a tour at the Sandhurst military academy, where he once studied, and a bilateral meeting with the British Prime Minister Keir Strander in 10 Downing Street. Kate's start for this visit is seen as an essential sign of her recovery, since it is her biggest public appearance since the end of chemotherapy. In October she performed publicly for the first time when she visited grieving families.
