The short video, beautifully shot at their home in M ​​Hall, confirmed that she had completed her long probation. In the touching post, a vibrant Catherine enjoyed a summer break with her family. Catherine spent time with her husband Prince William and their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. Fans were also excited about her new look, which saw her wear a designer dress for the first time, choosing an ivory Castella floral midi dress by Veronica Beard, paired with her favourite white trainers.

Her outfit included green Kiki McDonough drop earrings and a personalized necklace engraved with her children's initials, along with the eternity ring she was given during the Olympic Games celebrations earlier this summer. Catherine wore light, natural makeup and styled her hair in loose curls. Veronica Beard is a popular American brand that is admired by her sister-in-law Meghan, who has worn it many times over the years. Meghan recently wore the label just weeks before heading to Qatar with Prince Harry for their 2024 tour of Colombia.

In addition to her immediate family, Catherine's parents, Carol and Michael, appeared in the video, looking relaxed and casual as they played cards with their daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren at the kitchen table. This year has been a special one for the royal family, especially for Catherine. In January, Kensington Palace announced that she had suffered a planned abdominal problem and would have an extended recovery period, temporarily returning to duty after Easter.

Initially, sources said the problem was not a cause for concern, but it has since been revealed to be the case. There was much speculation surrounding her condition until she went public with her concerns, asking for privacy for herself and her family during the process. The announcement came just weeks after King Charles revealed his own health problems.

After Catherine's revelation, King Charles expressed his pride in her courage. In June, she made her first public appearance at Trooping the Colour, followed by attending the Wimbledon men's final the following month, where she presented the trophy to Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz while wearing a purple Safia dress and a checkered bow tie, reflecting her association with the All England Tennis and Curling Club since 2016.
