She joined her husband Prince William for Annual Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

And Kate’s tribute to Diana was quickly spotted by eagle-eyed fans.

She was seen wearing Collingwood pearl earrings, formerly belonging to her mother-in-law.

Kate paired Princess Diana’s earrings with the Nura pearl necklace she previously wore on several occasions, including during her 2022 trip to Copenhagen and while in London in 2023.

The princess let her luscious brown locks fall in a blow dryer with a side parting.

She wore a simple black coat to the event, following royal protocol for Remembrance Day services and events.

Kate Middleton she accessorized her evening look with a black Chanel clutch and her diamond and sapphire engagement ring, which once belonged to her late mother-in-law.

Her earrings, a favorite of the Spencer family, were a gift for the late Princess of Collingwood.

Diana often wore them to public events, including an evening at the British Embassy in Washington, DC in November 1985.

Kate previously wore pearl earrings in 2017 for the Spanish state visit to Buckingham Palace.

The Prince of Walesalso 42, put his hand lightly on his wife’s back as they got out of the car and up the stairs to the main entrance.

Both wearing poppies, with Kate appearing to be RAF themed, they were later seen chatting after taking their seats. Next one to another.

Previously, she carried a bunch of poppies rather than a single one.

Sunday, the Princess of Wales will join the royal family at London’s Cenotaph war memorial for the annual Remembrance Sunday service led by King Charles.

Kate’s exit marks a significant step in the brave princess’s return to public duties after revealing eight months ago that she had an undisclosed form of cancer.

Many royal fans were excited to see Kate back in action and she was radiant in her appearance.

Taking to social media, fans praised her for looking so “radiant”.

One wrote: “Kate Middleton looks radiant as she attends the Festival of Remembrance with Prince William, two months after announcing she is cancer free.”

Another complimented the Princess saying: “My beautiful Catherine.”

While a third said: “Isn’t she fabulous?”

The secret signal Kate Middleton sends with her bags

Regina was known to use her Launer handbag to signal to her staff how she really felt in public.

According to royal historian Hugo Vickers, if the Queen was at an event and wanted to strike up a conversation, she moves her bag from the usual left side to the right.

And Kate has a similar trick with the clutches she’s regularly seen carrying.

According to Myka Meier, founder of Beaumont Etiquette, when Kate is at an event, she “holds her bag in front of her with both hands when shaking hands might be awkward.”

Etiquette coach William Hanson added to Good Housekeeping: “By holding something like her purse, maybe it’s giving her an ‘excuse’ not to reach out to everyone.

“She can’t shake the hand of everyone she meets – the duchess would be there all day!”
