I first noticedk Duchess of Cambridge’s penchant for an impeccably tailored bit of magic in June 2011, when Catherine visited Victoria Barracks in a navy Alexander McQueen coat.

Harry, who is Vice Patron of the union, met with runner Jane Fishwick, with whom he joked about training Prince George for the 26.2 mile-race.
For all the royal video watching I do, I’ve never taken the time to watch this candid footage of Michael and Carole Middleton on the day of their daughter’s engagement photocall. The Duchess of Cambridge‘s parents held a small press conference outside their Bucklebury home on November 16th, 2010, the same day William and Catherine…
