THE DUCHESS of Cambridge has given her first solo television interview for a special programme marking the Queen's 90th birthday.

Kate joined other members of the Royal Family for the ITV show, due to be aired in the spring, to mark the Queen's life and 63 years on the throne.

The Duchess was interviewed by broadcaster Tom Brady, who also spoke to Kate and Prince William on the day their engagement was announced in November 2010.

But her latest television venture marks her first solo moment in front of the camera, with a now more experienced Duchess having made charity videos and taken part in many royal events at home and abroad. Click link for full post from EXPRESS.

Queen of Jewelry

Brooches, usually worn on the left shoulder, were a favourite for the royal and the Queen was believed to have over 100 in her collection. A selection that would go with an outfit were presented to her - usually three at a time - by her senior dresser and confidante Angela Kelly on special trays that once belonged to Queen Mary. The royal had a wide variety of different brooches which she often wore with her usual pearl earrings and necklace, including a spray of flowers brooch by the people and government of Australia during her Coronation tour of 1954./
