The Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, visited the UK at the invitation of King Charles III, accompanied by his first wife, Jawaher bint Hamad Al Thani. During the official visit, Kate Middleton and Prince William joined the couple. They first met at a welcoming ceremony at the Horse Guards Parade.
Kate chose an elegant outfit for the occasion, wearing an Alexander McQueen coat and a matching burgundy hat from Sahar Millinery. This color was a tribute to Qatar, as it aligns with the country’s flag.
King Charles III also attended the welcoming ceremony, though his wife could not be present due to health issues. Despite his battle with cancer, King Charles appeared in good spirits.
Kate glowed with her trademark smile, radiating happiness. The British public was overjoyed to see the princess, who had announced the end of her chemotherapy treatments earlier in the fall. “As if nothing happened! She’s so beautiful,” “Kate is a true fighter! Her smile is priceless,” “Well done, she made it!” were some of the comments online.
Previously, Prince William shared his emotional thoughts on 2024, describing it as the hardest year of his life due to the illnesses of both his wife and father, who had been diagnosed with cancer.
