Kate Middleton receives new title from King Charles III
22.12.2022 20:00
King Charles III has named his daughter-in-law as the new honorary Colonel of the Irish Guards, reported from People.
The new royal role is a fitting one for the Princes of Wales, who has been honoring that guards regiment most St. Patrick's Day holidays since marrying into the royal family in 2011.
Princess Kate, 40, is actually taking over the role from someone quite close: her husband, Prince William. Queen Elizabeth named her grandson as honorary Colonel of the Irish Guards in 2011, just two months before Kate and William's royal wedding, where the groom sported the red Irish Guards officer uniform for the ceremony at Westminster Abbey.
Prince William now has a new royal role of his own - King Charles announced his son as Colonel of the Welsh Guards, fitting with his new title of the Prince of Wales. In a speech given just one day after Queen Elizabeth's death on September 8, King Charles announced the royal title.
Queen Camilla also has a new title: she has been confirmed by her husband as Colonel of the Grenadier Guards, an honor that was removed from Prince Andrew by his late mother.
The palace also announced that the first public celebration of King Charles' birthday, known as Trooping the Colour, will take place on June 17, 2023, just six weeks after his coronation is held on May 6.
King Charles' actual birthday is in November, but like his late mother Queen Elizabeth, he'll celebrate in June for a practical reason: better weather.
