The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge must have felt a case of déjà vu today, as they celebrated the final day of festivities for Queen Elizabeth II’s Diamond Jubilee.
As the pair saluted the 60th anniversary of their grandmother’s ascension to the British throne, Kate Middleton and Prince William found themselves in several positions that echoed their wedding day on April 29, 2011. The couple’s wedding was watched by a reported 3 billion people around the globe.
PRINCE WILLIAM, PRINCE HARRY BOTH EXCITED TO BE FATHERS
The Duke and Duchess traveled to Buckingham Palace for today’s celebrations by horse drawn carriage, their first trip through London since their wedding using the regal mode of transportation.
With Middleton wearing an off-white lace dress by Alexander McQueen — the same designer who created her much-copied wedding gown – as well as a white fascinator featuring a birdcage veil, the Duchess practically looked like a bride again. Meanwhile, Prince William traded in his red military garb for a dapper suit and top hat.
Later in the day, the Duke and Duchess appeared on the balcony of Buckingham Palace standing with their hands clasped in front of them, just as they did on their wedding day. However, their company on the balcony was pared down a bit, with Pippa Middleton not in the picture and Prince Phillip in the hospital.
This time around, the Duke and Duchess also had a third wheel — Prince Harry. The younger prince, who has complained lately that his title makes it hard for him to find love, stayed tightly tethered to his brother and sister-in-law, even riding with the couple in their carriage.
