Kate Middleton has returned to public work following her cancer diagnosis.
In March, the Princess of Wales announced that she is undergoing treatment for cancer, which was discovered after she underwent abdominal surgery in January.
Following the announcement, the Princess took a step back from public work with no date given on her return.

Now, Kate has joined the rest of the Royal Family at Trooping the Colour ceremony today.
The mother-of-three joined King Charles and Queen Camilla, Prince William and the other royals on Buckingham Palace’s balcony for the RAF flypast.
The Trooping is held every year as an official birthday event for the monarch, even though Charles’s actual birthday is on November 14 – becoming an annual event from 1760.
The princess was spotted in the Royal carriage with her three children, George, Charlotte and Louis on the way to Buckingham palace.
This was the first time she had been seen in public since she announced her diagnosis.
The 42-year-old was then spotted with her son, Louis, taking a peek at the Horse Guards Parade ceremony from a window during celebration.
She was then joined by the rest of her children for the ending of the parade.
Kate made her anticipated return when she joined the rest of the royal family on the balcony at Buckingham palace.
Everyone was delighted to see the Princess of Wales in good health with her family at the Monarch’s birthday celebration.
Taking to X, people wrote touching and sweet messages saying how happy they were to see the Princess in public again after so long.
