Prince William and Kate made a
special trip to Windsor Guildhall to meet volunteers and operational
staff to thank them for their involvement in the late monarch’s committal
service held on the grounds of Windsor Castle.
In particular, they wanted to
thank the group for supporting the large crowds that gathered in Windsor to
commemorate the Queen and watch the procession of her coffin up the Long Walk
to the castle ahead of the service.
As per royal mourning
guidelines, the royal couple appeared in black as a show of respect for the
late Queen who passed away on 8 September. Kate looked particularly chic in a
tailored black coat adorned with gold buttons, black heels and pearl drop
earrings.
Prince William, meanwhile,
opted to wear a smart navy suit and black tie. Members of the royal family will
continue to observe the royal mourning period until Monday 26.
Their Windsor outing comes
after William and Kate made an appearance at Her Majesty’s incredibly moving
state funeral held in Westminster Abbey. A somber-looking Prince William
wore his military uniform as he joined the procession walking behind the
Queen’s coffin.
