The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visited the 1st Battalion Irish Guards for the traditional St Patrick's Day celebration.
Kate wore a £3,200 Laura Green London coat and a shamrock brooch to meet the Irish Guards at Mons Barracks in Aldershot.
The 40-year-old was joined by Prince William to present sprigs of shamrock to the Officers and Guardsmen in the parade for the first time since the start of the Covid pandemic.
The parade concluded with Prince William taking the salute in a march-past. The presenting of shamrocks began in 1901 by Queen Alexandra, the wife of King Edward VII.
The Queen Mother and Princess Anne have also carried out the tradition previously.
