Princess Kate is feeling green this St. Patrick’s Day.
The Princess of Wales, 43, took part in the Irish Guard’s parade at Wellington Barracks in London to mark the holiday Monday.
Dressed in a matching forest green beret, coat and scarf, the outfit was complemented by a gold, three-leaf clover pin. In celebration, Kate also appeared to sip a beer and posed for photos with the Irish Guard.
Kate did not take part in the British Army regiment’s annual event last year, which came days before the princess revealed to the world that she had cancer. Last March, Kate was set to undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy.

Her treatment ended in September, with the princess sharing in a video posted to social media at the time: “My path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes.”
In January, she announced her cancer was in remission after visiting the hospital where she was treated.
“It is a relief to now be in remission and I remain focussed (sic) on recovery,” the Princess of Wales said in a post on social media Jan. 14. “As anyone who has experienced a cancer diagnosis will know, it takes time to adjust to a new normal. I am however looking forward to a fulfilling year ahead. There is much to look forward to. Thank you to everyone for your continued support.”

Kate holds the role of honorary Colonel of the foot guard regiment and presents guards with a St. Patrick’s Day shamrock, including the Guards’ Irish wolfhound mascot, Turlough Mor. The position was previously held by her husband, Prince William.
It has been a year of returns for the princess, as earlier this month, she also took part in her first Commonwealth Day service since 2023. It was also King Charles III‘s return to the Commonwealth Day service. He did not attend in 2024 while he, too, was battling cancer.
