Kate Middleton Turns Heads in Aquamarine Dress at Trooping the Colour
At Trooping the Colour today, Kate looked lovely in an aquamarine Catherine Walker dress coat that feature ivory contrast lapels and cuffs. She also wore a matching wide-brimmed hat by Juliette Botterill.
She accessorized with Queen Elizabeth's Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings, which Kate frequently wears—most recently during the Qatar State Visit and on Remembrance Sunday. She also had the the Irish Guards Regimental Brooch pinned to her jacket.
In the parade, Kate rode in the Ascot Landau carriage with her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Prince William, meanwhile, rode on horseback. Since marrying Prince William in 2011, Kate has not missed Trooping the Colour. Today's outfit is also a monochrome bright color, opting for a new shade, and is notably not a rewear. Kate, a longtime fan of Catherine Walker, has only worn the brand one other time to Trooping—back in 2015.
Kate has been on a repeat streak lately, opting to pull items from her closet instead of debuting new clothes. For example, last month at a Buckingham Palace Garden Party, she rewore the butter yellow Emilia Wickstead dress she last wore during Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee in June 2022. At a concert celebrating the 80th anniversary of VE Day, she rewore the white Self-Portrait dress and a five-strand pearl necklace from jeweler Susan Caplan that she debuted earlier this year. In February, she went deep into her archives to rewear a coat from 2007.

The Music City Hot Chicken Fest returns to East Nashville
The 2025 Music City Hot Chicken Fest, featuring a firetruck parade, an amateur cooking competition and the city's best hot chicken joints, burns into action at East Park on July 4. Why it matters: Hot chicken is a uniquely Nashville dish that's been exported around the world. The inside coop: Local hot chicken restaurants will set up shop to feed festivalgoers, including Prince's, Smack Ya Momma Chicken Shack Express, Hurts Hot Chicken, Eugene's, Nashville Chicken and Waffles, Hattie B's, Momma Joy's and Bill's Hot Fish and Chicken. We suggest trying them all. Think of it as a sort of around the world challenge that's also a really bad idea. Yazoo will provide the beer. There's also a fun zone for kids and live music. The amateur contest is a prestigious badge of honor for home chefs who have mastered Nashville's vintage dish. Flashback: Hot Chicken Fest launched in 2007. It was the brainchild of then-Mayor Bill Purcell, who explained his thought process to the Bitter Southerner in an excellent story about the history of the dish.

Kate Middleton opens up about life after cancer. ‘Really, really difficult'
Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, is sharing new details about her ongoing cancer journey. According to People, while spending time at the Colchester Hospital on Wednesday, July 2, Middleton talked about what it has been like since finishing her cancer treatments. 'You put on a sort of brave face, stoicism through treatment. Treatment's done, then it's like, 'I can crack on, get back to normal,' but actually, the phase afterwards is really, really difficult,' Middleton, 43, said, according to People. 'You're not necessarily under the clinical team any longer, but you're not able to function normally at home as you perhaps once used to,' Middleton explained. 'And actually, someone to help talk you through that, show you and guide you through that sort of phase that comes after treatment, I think is really valuable.' Middleton was visiting the Colchester Hospital to spend time at a 'specially designed well-being garden that offers a restorative space for patients, NHS staff and visitors,' People reported. 'You have to find your new normal and that takes time,' Middleton continued, 'and it's a rollercoaster, it's not smooth, like you expect it to be. But the reality is you go through hard times.' Since announcing in September that she had completed her cancer treatments and later revealing in January that she was in remission, Middleton has slowly began returning to her public duties as a member of the Royal family. Most recently, Middleton was seen with her husband Prince William and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, at Trooping the Colour in June. In January, Middleton wrote that 'it is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focused on recovery. As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead. There is much to look forward to. Thank you to everyone for your continued support.' Middleton also shared a sweet video in September of her family of five spending time together after she had completed chemotherapy. 'The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life as you know it can change in an instant and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown,' she wrote on Instagram, alongside the video. 'The cancer journey is complex, scary and unpredictable for everyone, especially those closest to you.' 'This time has above all reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted. Of simply loving and being loved,' she continued, adding that 'doing what I can to stay cancer free is now my focus. 'Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.'

Princess Kate's Red Carpet Aura Goes Viral
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Princess Kate's "aura" at red carpet events went viral on TikTok as fans praised her handling of an unexpected etiquette breach by Tom Cruise. The Princess of Wales was arriving for the London premiere of Top Gun: Maverick with husband Prince William and Cruise, who stars in the movie, in May 2022. Cruise, no doubt wanting to be gentlemanly, offered Kate a hand to help her up the stairs Princess Kate is seen [L] at the EE British Academy Film Awards at the Royal Albert Hall, in London, England, on February 10, 2019, and [R} at the 'Top Gun: Mavertick' Royal Film Performance at... Princess Kate is seen [L] at the EE British Academy Film Awards at the Royal Albert Hall, in London, England, on February 10, 2019, and [R} at the 'Top Gun: Mavertick' Royal Film Performance at Leicester Square, London, on May 19, 2022. More Samir Hussein/WireImage Why It Matters The video was liked 26,600 times and watched 507,000 times after it was posted with the caption: "Real aura." What to Know The TikTok post starts with footage of Kate wearing a black-and-white off-the-shoulder gown by Roland Mouret, exuding Hollywood glamour, at the Top Gun: Maverick premiere in London in May 2022. A notable moment occurred when Cruise offered his hand to assist her up the stairs, a gesture that sparked discussions about royal protocol and highlighted her composed response. Once at the top of the stairs, Kate can be seen saying "thank you," indicating her desire to have her hand back, before switching her clutch bag in order to stop him taking her by the hand again. At the time, Dr. Erin Watson, a Sky News Australia contributor, wrote on X: "Kate Middleton then immediately switched her clutch so he didn't touch her again as she went up the next set of stairs like a total #bossroyal who wasn't going to be touched by Tom Cruise." "Kate Middleton is all of us strategically shifting our clutch because someone thinks they can touch you but #nope," she added. The next clip showed Kate at the EE British Academy Film Awards in 2019 in a one-shouldered white Alexander McQueen gown, complemented by pearl and diamond drop earrings that once belonged to Princess Diana. Her ensemble was praised, with news reports noting the ethereal quality of her outfit. The final clip in the video was not from the red carpet but rather from a particularly poignant appearance at Wimbledon in July 2024, months after she began chemotherapy for cancer that February. Kate's attendance at the tournament had been in doubt after her retreat from public life while she focused on her health but she made it and was rewarded with a standing ovation from tennis fans. Alongside Princess Charlotte, Kate stunned in a regal purple Safiyaa dress, one of the colors associated with the tennis tournament. What People Are Saying One fan wrote on TikTok, "can't wait for them to become king and Queen" while another said: "When you walk into a room and everyone stops what they are doing to look." A third wrote: "Notice how Princess Catherine changes hand for her clutch bag so Tom Cruise can't hold her hand again up the next flight of stairs. Savvy lady. "He was only being a gent BUT, While there's no official rule against it, the 'unwritten rule' suggests avoiding physical contact beyond a handshake with members of the royal family."
