Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, carries out St. Patrick's Day tradition with the Duke of Cambridge at Mons Barracks in Aldershot
Ever since their marriage the couple have upheld the 114-year-old royal tradition of presenting shamrocks to the officers and guardsmen of the regiment at their St Patrick's Day Parade.
The Duchess wore a brown Catherine Walker coat and Lock & Co hat and a gold shamrock brooch given to Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother by the Irish Guards.
The Duke wore an Irish Guards frock coat and ceremonial sword. Two hundred soldiers from 1st Bn Irish Guards marched onto the Parade Square at their base, Mons Barracks, for the presentation of the shamrocks.
The Duchess presented baskets of shamrocks to the battalion’s warrant officers who, in turn, issued the sprigs out along the ranks. Click link for full post from The Telegraph.
