At the rehearsal of the Trooping the Color parade, "Kate Middleton" was spotted, but there is a nuance. Photo

The Princess of Wales was spotted at the Trooping the Color rehearsal, which took place on June 8 in London. In the photo from the event, you can see how a fan of the royal family brought a cardboard version of Kate Middleton to the event, as the Duchess herself will not be able to attend the parade in honor of King Charles Day.

The woman who decided to come to the rehearsal in the company of the royal person chose her photo from the Earthshot Prize 2022 ceremony for the figure of Catherine. Interestingly, the founder of the award is the husband of the Princess of Wales, William.

On June 8, the real Kate Middleton addressed the Irish Guards, apologizing for her absence from the parade due to health reasons. The soldiers shared the letter on the social network X (Twitter). "I appreciate everyone who has trained for months this year," the letter reads.

"It is a great honor to be your Colonel and I am very sorry that I am unable to attend. Please pass on my apologies to the entire regiment and send my best wishes and good luck to everyone involved," Catherine continued.

The Guardsmen said they were very touched by Her Royal Highness' words. Kate is an honorary colonel in the Irish Guards, which is leading this year's celebrations. Normally, the princess would have saluted during the Colonel's Review of the Irish Guards on June 8, a week before the big parade in London, but on May 30, the palace announced that she would not be attending.
