The stylish coat Kate wore was a creation by designer Catherine Walker. This wasn’t the first time she had worn this coat – she debuted it on Christmas Day in 2018. Kate paired the tailored coat with deep wine heels, a velvet burgundy clutch and a rose red hat. William complemented her as his tie matched the shade of red of her coat.

As per tradition, the Queen was there with the rest of her family. This service will be historic because Harry and Meghan also attended in what will be one of their final royal engagements after stepping down as senior royals earlier this year. This could be one of the last times we see the full royal family together in this capacity.

Kate and William have had a busy time lately as they just returned from their first official visit to Ireland where they were building diplomatic relationships, reports Town & Country. During their trip the couple visited Dublin, County Meath, County Kildare, and Galway.
