Here are some photos of the Wales family – or rather, the Rothesay family – in Scotland on Sunday. Prince William and Kate arrived at Balmoral with their children last Thursday, and on Sunday, William and Kate took Prince George and Princess Charlotte to Crathie Kirk, the local little church close to Balmoral. Some outlets say that all three kids were in the backseat, but I only see George and Charlotte, so I don’t know. It would be weird if they skipped Louis, but they do that all the time.
InStyle noted that Kate had a “sunkissed glow and blonder hair.” Real ones remember that Kate soft-launched a tawny blonde wig at Balmoral last year, and by September 2025, that thing was perched on the top of her head like an ill-fitting hat. Last week, I predicted that Kate’s wigs and hairpieces would grow sharply blonder now that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are returning to the UK. Ol’ girl is probably going to plop on a Farrah Fawcett wig next month.
Longtime Middleton-watchers should keep their eye on something else – Terribly Moderately Wealthy James Matthews’ 51st birthday was a few days ago, and William and Kate made no move to celebrate with Pippa Middleton and TMW James. Many of us have noticed that Pippa and Kate seem to have fallen out in the past two years. I don’t think they’ve been photographed together since Wimbledon 2024. It would be no biggie – just adult-sister beef, really – but Kate is supposed to be so perfect, such a keen linchpin, such a peacemaker. And instead, Kate regularly falls out with tons of people.

Nothing this woman does to her hair or face will distract from her lack of work ethic.
What us that on her head. The outfit looks like something that could be worn for foxhunting. She looks smug
She looks like she’s in fancy dress. I’m assuming one of those skirts for riding sidesaddle.
I loved her look here despite, as always with Kate, caveats. She looked happy and sharper than last year when she seemed zonked out on something? I think the old-fashioned lace cravat and tweed suit her very well and it was appropriate for Balmoral. I don’t see that much bronde but it’s hard to tell from the photos…
Caveats: Heavy makeup (those brows!), inappropriate earrings (are those the Queen’s chandelier earrings she tends to borrow? Not with this outfit, nor for daytime, nor for church…sigh) and I hate those pillbox hats over long hair, it should have been neatly up.
William is wearing his “rictus grin that doesn’t reach his eyes” though so that gave me life
Yeah the earrings are weird. Her looks are nearly perfect but then one of her accessories is wonky or ill-chosen.
Her accessory and styling game is consistently off.
Always, always, always the accessories.
If someone could take Kate in hand and sort out her jewellery it would be such an improvement.
I did notice George definitely has K’s eyebrows, like her Dad’s.
yeah the blouse and tweed look nice for a Sunday church service in Scotlan. But the rest of the look is…not great (and I do think her hair is definitely blonder.)
Also, something about these church drives bother me, since W&K dont go to church regularly – its very “we will allow the public to catch a glimpse of us as we drive by in our range rover.” It didnt feel this way with QEII, i think because she went to church every week so it felt more just….like the queen doing her thing.
In my very humble opinion..
You got that right about the fake Church run which is what it appears to me.
As for the Queen, for as long as I have been on this earth and aware of her, it was a deep personal faith that sustained her.
William says he doesn’t do god, but his has to remember that he needs god for his coronation, so they are practicing.
In other photos the hair looks more blonde and she definitely has been suntanning.
I don’t really understand the obsession with getting tanned since we all know at this point it increases aging and the risk of cancer. No amount of surgical work can fix skin that has been sun damaged, especially the levels she seems to tan.
As for church attendance, William and Kate don’t attend church unless there are cameras there to record it. If William wasn’t in line for head of the Church of England then it would be less of an issue, but the Queen attended weekly and went even when there weren’t paps there. Charles also attends more, although perhaps not as much as his mother.
William attends a handful of times and it is all for show. Same as Kate who didn’t even get confirmed until she was engaged…. Which is bizarrely late since confirmation is around age 13.
They need to drop their pretence of any religious beliefs. Because it’s just a joke at this point.
Bet they have had a horrible week and now all the breakables are being replaced by the staff… Waity needs to stop trying to be a blonde, she looks much better as a true brunette.. i doubt she even had blonde hair as a child and from my experience they are the only people that look decent as blonde adults.. (full disclosure I am also a brunette that tried blonde and looked horrible so maybe im biased.)
Also isn’t this the church trip that Peggy drove AMW to last year smiling widely? Looks like he’s no longer welcome by WanK when cameras are around.
Kate was seen with dark brown hair in the photos of her as a child. It is a better colour on her so whoever told her to go bronde is not a friend.
Can she make the collar higher?
They left back louis again because he steals everyone’s thunder and they don’t want to deal with charisma and charming personalities. Instead they are telling him that he must stay back because it’s too boring and he won’t like it.
And Wiglet Wails wanted the headline and photos ON herself (and the Whingeing one).
Classic mean, nasty, and with that pained constipated look she has when forced to attend something that she finds demeaning, with assorted protesters around as well.
Priceless (and Louis probably would have thought it funny).
I’m curious why she goes blonder because of the Sussexes— she copies Meghan, yes, but Meghan isn’t blonde.
And Kate has definitely fallen out with Pippa. I read somewhere there was a superinjunction on it but I find it hard to believe there would be one over something like that.
Could be that William ́s sidepiece is blonde
Wasn’t that the rumor not to long ago? I thought I read something about a blonde after RH?
Kate has habit of dressing up like billy sidepiece or crushes. There is long rumor about billy having blonde mistress from London.
There is a photo of a blonde woman in the car as William was leaving a private supper club in London on a weekday. This was a few years ago and that was being mentioned even when the Rose story was out as many said he wasn’t with Rose but this blonde lawyer/ banker from London who also be Russian too.
She has that scheming mean girl look. Not really smiling
I said this in a comment yesterday, but while I know Kate isn’t going to be happy about stepping up her work game, she is a very competitive person. I wonder if Meghan coming back is actually giving her a spark of competitive excitement. Not sure how long it can be maintained though but I could see it.
I don’t know rest of the family looks like they saw grim reaper but kate is happy. I wonder she is taking her happy pill again and zoned out ?
Maybe but I expect her to be doing whatever she has to in order to look like the best most perfect joyous never put a foot wrong perfect in every way princess. She v well might be expecting another round of perfect Kate publicity by once again comparing her to terrible Meghan. That’s what I mean about her maybe getting a boost of competitive spirit. I can see her thriving on that. Except I’m not sure the papers are going to write it that way this time around. I’m seeing a lot of stories about the dull and lazy Wales but that might change.
Hopefully her hair looks better than it did last year.
Maybe Wiglet Wails should dye it the shade of Green 💚 (for the envy and jealousy that will rattling around in her head) so many shades of Green, and NO time.
Ohhhh fetch the smelling salts right now are some of the words being hurled down the corridors of which ever is today’s forever home with the seized land as a buffer.
This state of affairs is a joy to behold to be quite honest.
By the way as I suggested last week, my comments to the dimwits, Sykes, Amanda whoever, Liz someone to mention a couple, I actually told them to quit lying about Prince Harry, Meghan etc and to do their jobs telling the truth about the Lazy self serving Whinger and Wiglet Wails. So hitting those dickheads where it hurts made me feel a lot better.
Have an excellent day/night wherever you are.
I was a real time Diana fashion watcher when I was a teenager. Kate’s collar is very, very Diana 1981-82.
There is a photo early on of Diana wearing a “riding outfit” similar to what Keen wore.
That ridiculous grin aimed at nobody really creeps me out. Why does KKKate do that, smile at nothing?
Not sure, but don’t the born-and-bred royals ignore the cameras? 🤔
It looks even more weird when everyone else in the car looks serious. Nobody smiles that much going to church.
What year is it in Scotland?? What season is it??
Kate’s outfit looks like it could have been worn in autumn or winter in the early 1900s.
