Here are some photos from Remembrance Sunday in the UK. The Windsors and various politicians gathered at the Cenotaph in London. The men laid wreaths and most of the royal women were on the balcony, overlooking the Cenotaph. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were obviously not there – they were not invited, despite Prince Harry’s military service in war. Sources close to Harry actually told media outlets last week that Harry would not show up to the Cenotaph and/or steal his family’s Remembrance thunder, although Harry ended up marking Remembrance outside of London (which we only saw hours after the Windsors marked the day at the Cenotaph).
The Princess of Wales and Queen Camilla were positioned as they have been for years now, together on the balcony, barely tolerating each other. The night before, at the Festival of Remembrance, Kate wore a repeat (Alessandra Rich). For Remembrance Sunday, she wore all new pieces – a bespoke Catherine Walker coat, with a Jane Taylor hat that retails for over $3400. She also wore her HMS Sterling Silver Glasgow Brooch from James Porter and Son Diamonds, plus Diana’s Collingwood Pearl Drop earrings. She wears those earrings all the time, they seem to be one of her favorite pairs. I actually like the velvet collar on her coat, and I’m always amused by her love of Sgt. Pepper-esque structured coatdresses for Remembrance. Shocked that this one doesn’t have tassels!
I’m also including a pic of Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, on another balcony with the poor Duke of Kent and Tim Laurence. They really need to allow the Duke of Kent to retire peacefully. And Sophie’s hair looks so different! It’s not just the cut, I think she’s trying to go for a different/brighter shade of blonde.

The Duke of Kent is sooo frail but he’s very old school and would absolutely attend this event regardless of his health.
How many coats and hats does keen have that pretty much look the same as these ones?!?!
Why does part of the Duke of Kent’s left ear look like it’s missing?
It’s giving feral cat veteran of alley fighting.
He was photographed with bandages on his ear a few years back (2022?) so I assume it was skin cancer or something else removed…
Pretty good chance he had some skin cancer removed. not uncommon in these old men. on the ear there’s no real way to take it off without taking part of the cartilage too.
It’s enraging. They all look basically identical (pretty much every coat she’s ever worn to this event look similar to one another) and by getting them “bespoke,” Kate knows she can avoid the prices being published. Such a scam.
I think if I had to do the same thing at the same place every year I’d just get the one coat & leave it at that. Make it a tradition. The men in their uniforms are doing it, so why not?
If Kaiser had simply used the pictures from last year I wouldn’t see any difference. Kate’s coats all look the same. Nice coats, but they all look alike. Same with the satellite dishes she chooses as hats.
I don’t know much about the Duke of Kent , and haven’t read his memoir, but I do admire what appears to be his steadfast determination to be of service. @Digital Unicorn, I, too, imagine that he would attend a commemoration like this if it were at all possible for him to do so.
Kate has so many repeats hanging in her closet that she doesn’t need any more copies.
Good god this family looks so devoid of joy and hope. I almost feel sorry for them. They must need the billions to compensate them for their miserable private lives and toxic family dynamics. Camilla appears to be positively seething at Kate, who look like she’s reconciled herself to spending another decade in this snake pit, sadly, but since she embraced the viper energy, I guess it’s home. I really hope the next generation hightails it out of this waxwork brigade.
My first impression was that misery is being projected in all of these photos.. what a gloomy and sour faced bunch all these leftovers are.. no matter how many bespoke coats and hats they wear it doesn’t cover up just how boring and miserable they all come across as.. even princess Diana’s jewelry seems to have all the sparkle sucked out of it when worn by Waity.
It is a memorial service not Ascot. Why do you expect them to look happy? That would be so inappropriate.
How many bespoke black Catherine Walker dresses for Remembrance does Kate need? I know she repeats some years but it’s very rare. She should have gotten 3-5 over her first few years and just rewear those.
We were just saying Keen has hundreds of these black coat dresses.
Its ridiculous waste of money to have so many of like for like. Keen is a real spender of funds which are at her disposal..
We were all saying all Keen likes is dressy up … don’t think they do much to change anything in these difficult times we live in.
Yet another type of saucer hat ..which again she has many for same remembrance service.
I wonder if Sophie is trying to transition to her more natural silver / gray hair.
When I first saw it, I thought it was a repeat. It reminded me of others very similar coats…what’s the point of buying the exact same style coat?
Yeah, same, if I hadn’t been told it was new, I would not have known it was new.
Sophie looks grim. I like her hat better than keens flying saucer hat
I like Sophie’s hat more, too.
??? Sophie’s hat looks like giant headphones pushed to the back.
She looks like she’s adding platinum highlights or balayage to blend in the gray. Easier to upkeep that pure blonde at her age. And yes, they all look like they’ve just sucked on a lemon. The poor Duke looks like a propped up cadaver. Where’s Eddie?
I agree the Duke of Kent should be allowed to retire but as long as he’s sort of mobile they going to keep dragging him out there. Kate’s hat is a repeat. She wore it to the Remembrance event at the National Memorial Arboretum last year.
Eddie, the basic training dropout, was apparently taking the salute from actual soldiers. An absolute travesty.
Also is Tim a working royal now? I thought only working royals could participate in this event, even if they have military service.
Obviously this event shouldn’t be all about Kate, but I thought she was looking particularly smug yesterday for some reason.
How can you tell? Lmao. I have no idea but I think she tries to lightly smile so that she doesn’t have resting face. Iirc, it was at this event a couple years back that she was captured in a very unflattering angle.
Yeah, I see Kate’s unruly eyebrow is back with its vengeance.
When people are struggling to buy food in this country what does the lovely Catherine do?
Strut about in a vastly overpriced hat!
The smug look her face says it all
That hat cost three grand??
Tell me again what we need the royals for?
That is a truly ludicrous price for that hat, JFC
She wears those earrings all the time because they’re one of the few things she got from Diana. Meghan clearly got the better half of the jewelry imo.
I know it’s a somber event but Will and Kate looked haggard. They easily look at least ten years more than their actual age. Harsh but true.
I have a feeling William took all of Diana’s pearl and sapphire pieces for Kate, (and later Charlotte, of course) because they are more “royal.” Possibly, if Diana owned some emerald pieces, must also be in Kate’s pile. There is also the story that William made sure Meghan could not access any of the jewels from the vault that Diana wore, reserving them for Kate only. Meghan seems to have inherited Diana’s more personal and whimsical pieces, which suit Meghan very well and fit right into her own jewelry collection. I think the aquamarine ring and the Cartier watch are spectacular. Also, Meghan seems to wear Diana’s pieces often, such as her watch and diamond tennis bracelets and in everyday situations.
Sophie, kitty , cams and the Duke of Kent all look to be about the same age. Don’t even ask me how that is possible. Also ,cams can’t seem to hold in her contempt for kitty in that picture of the two of them looking at each other
What are you even talking about, that is a very festive glance!
Chris Ship is a waste of oxygen but I do have to give him props for coming up with “festive glance,” which never gets old. Credit where credit is due!
If anyone looked at me like that I would be carrying my own petite stun gun. For my protection of course, certainly not for a bit of fun.
Camilla needs to get that thing on the side of her face looked at. It’s way more than an age spot.
I agree, even if we would like for the Duke of Kent to be able to retire and relax, he’s of that generation that wouldn’t miss Remembrance Sunday – ever. He is a veteran himself, he saw active service, and I believe his father was killed while serving in the RAF. So, he’s attending the service come hell or high water.
Contrast that with the current Prince of Wales who was absent without any excuse just last year.
That’s what I was thinking, this more than anything he’ll attend no matter what.
I’m not sure why, but it makes me sad to see this gentleman do all he can to support the monarchy while the Wales do the bare minimum. Also, why in hell are they letting Edward salute anyone?
Nothing Catherine ever wears appears memorable to me….this group of sad sacks is truly forgettable….
You could line up photos of Kate on the balcony from every year of this event and I would not be able to differentiate one from another. She always looks exactly the same (although somehow she seems to spend thousands of £ to do this).
Nothing says honoring the military dead like spending thousands of dollars on coat dresses and hats!
I’m sure the families of the dead heroes live similarly lavish lives! (snark)
Not gonna lie, I love that coat! I’m guessing her old coats don’t fit and it’s a lot of work to take in shoulders of a coats why not buy new if you are a princess? Look how narrow she is across the shoulders now! She’s truly wasting away and her posture is worse than usual.
She and the fake queen look like their twinning, despite the requisite hate between them.
So…. Exactly who owns the clothes bought by the tax payers for Keen to wear to public events? How are those clothes inventoried, stored and kept track of? Are her clothes considered her property or part of the historic record/owned by the tax payers/expected to be preserved/stored? It does not make sense to have so many identical clothes unless someone has a side hustle selling stuff off for a tidy little sum. The other explanation is that she a shopping addict that enjoys blazing through money, but is too lazy to put much effort into actual shopping. Good lort.
This has long been one of my theories, @TN Democrat. I think she used to share clothes with her mum & sister but I wouldn’t be at all surprised if her mother sells them on the side. The problem is, Kate is so thin now, if they’ve been tailored to fit properly, they won’t fit anyone else.
I can’t imagine there is a market for used coat dresses. They just aren’t something most women would have any use for.
Would you invite them to travel on your private jet or vacation for free on your private yacht, sky chalet or beach house? Would you donate to their charities or chose to associate with them? Would you be desperate enough for a title to degrade yourself for decades? The royal family have more power to block legislation and interfere with the political process than we realize. Certain people need the royals for status/titles and bend over backwards to accommodate them. Access can be bought in many ways. Keener has no personality of her own. She has spent her entire time in public life mimicking others, especially Princess Diana and Duchess Meghan. Keen entered the royal family as a grifter who did anything and everything Willy wanted to get Diana’s cursed ring. No one with any sense would buy anything that dull, lazy woman has worn, but there is that grasping segment who would gleefully pay under the table for access and favors and her ego would thrive on the adulation. A full audit of the Windsor finances, including their charities and verification of all the historic artifacts that are supposed to belong to the public, would be the end of the House of Windsor.
KKKhate looks slightly better than last year (or maybe the year before) when the paps caught her looking positively ghastly. This year she backed off (a bit) on the heavy black eyeliner of doom, but seems to have doubled down on the muddy brown eyeshadow. Has no one told her the “smoky eye” trend is evolving into a less heavy-handed look?
I guess she doesn’t read Celebitchy because we’ve been discussing her absurd eye makeup forever.
Where -exactly- is her eyebrow attempting to go? Back on vacation?
Sorry, they’re (not their and not my fault!)
The way Camilla looks at Kate, if looks could kill. Ironically, Kate is starting to resemble Camilla as she ages. Kate looks just awful for someone who doesn’t work.
Sophie looks straight up evil and miserable. There is nothing you can do for these people.
