Princess Kate has received a new title and it’s one she inherited from her husband.
The Prince and Princess of Wales celebrated St Patrick’s Day with the Irish Guards on Friday but it seems there was another reason for the royals to raise a glass.
Kate, 41, formally became the regiment’s Colonel - a title she took over from Prince William who is now head of the Welsh Guards.
Accepting her first salute at the St Patrick’s Day festivities, the princess told the guards she “couldn’t be prouder” to stand in front of them and called the role a “true honour.
“I am here to listen to you, to support you, and to champion you in all you do. This is a responsibility I do not take lightly,” she said.
