Kate Middleton has completed chemotherapy. Take a look at the royal’s life in photos here.

Kate Middleton is beloved by Britain as the Princess Of Wales. But unlike her hubby Prince William, she wasn’t always destined to be royalty. Kate, born January 9, 1982, first charmed the Prince when they met in 2001 while studying at the University of St Andrews in Scotland.

They began their courtship around 2003, it wasn’t until Nov. 2010 that the couple was finally engaged. People around the world tuned in to watch their royal wedding when it happened in 2011. The Prince and Princess started a family soon after, welcoming Prince George in 2013, Princess Charlotte in 2015, and Prince Louis in 2018.

Kate isn’t just a princess. She’s been dedicated to philanthropy since assuming her title. She holds patronage within over 20 charitable and military organizations, including Action for Children, SportsAid, and the National Portrait Gallery.

And through it all, she’s been the epitome of glamour. Her fashion choices have been mimicked by many, in turn, catapulting the career of designers like Emilia Wickstead. Kate was truly radiant during this appearance at Britain’s National Portrait Gallery in London on May 4, 2016.

Kate Middleton’s Wedding Dress

Kate Middleton was pure elegance during her Apr. 29, 2011 wedding. Her lacydress has been designed by Sarah Burton, creative director of the Alexander McQueen label. According to a press release from St James’ Palace Catherine chose the British brand for the “beauty of its craftsmanship and its respect for traditional workmanship”.

The details of the dress were simply amazing. The lace appliqué for the bodice and skirt of the dress was handmade by the Royal School of Needlework and individual flowers were hand-cut from lace and hand-engineered onto ivory silk tulle. Hand-cut English lace and French Chantilly were used throughout the bodice and skirt.

The train was two metres and 70cm long, and the dress had an ivory satin bodice. The design, which was is narrowed at the waist and padded at the hips, drew on the Victorian tradition of corsetry, a hallmark of McQueen designs. The veil, made of layers of soft, ivory silk tulle, is held Cartier ‘halo’ tiara, belonging to The Queen, which was made in 1936. Her earrings, by Robinson Pelham, are diamond-set stylised oak leaves with a diamond acorn, and were a gift from her parents.
