Kate Middleton Wears Bahrain Pearl Earrings at Remembrance
After undergoing cancer treatment earlier this year, the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, is making her return to royal duties. She recently attended the Remembrance Sunday service at The Cenotaph in central London, led by King Charles. This significant event, one of the royal family’s most important, honors the brave members of the armed forces who lost their lives during World War I and World War II.

Kate Middleton looked stunning in a black, military-inspired Catherine Walker ensemble. The outfit featured a velvet bow and frogging on the shoulders and pockets, giving it a sleek, structured look. She paired it with a black fascinator adorned with matching flowers and a cluster of poppies, which are a symbol of remembrance. The Princess also wore her silver Fleet Air Arm brooch, paying tribute to the royal navy.
A touching tribute was Kate’s choice of earrings – she wore the Bahrain pearl drop earrings that once belonged to Queen Elizabeth II. These pearls were gifted to the Queen by the ruler of Bahrain in 1947, and Kate has worn them for various memorable occasions, including Remembrance Sunday services in 2016 and 2019, as well as the Duke of Edinburgh's funeral in 2021.
The Princess of Wales attended the service alongside Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, from the balcony of the Foreign Office building. Queen Camilla, who was unable to attend due to a chest infection, was missed at this poignant ceremony.
Kate’s Fashion Choices for Remembrance Sunday Services
Kate Middleton is known for her thoughtful fashion choices at Remembrance Sunday services, often opting for military-style coats that reflect both respect and elegance. Last year, she wore a black Catherine Walker coat with a high collar, a look she had previously re-worn in 2019. Over the years, she has also chosen designs from Alexander McQueen, Temperley London, and Diane von Furstenberg, each piece carefully selected for such an important occasion.
The Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance
In addition to the Sunday service, the Princess of Wales attended the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall. For this event, Kate donned another elegant black coat dress, accessorized with a black Chanel clutch and a Monica Vinader pearl necklace. She completed the look with Princess Diana’s Collingwood pearl drop earrings and her iconic diamond and sapphire engagement ring, which once belonged to her late mother-in-law.
As Kate eases back into royal life, it’s clear that her fashion choices continue to reflect her deep respect for royal traditions and her personal connections to family history.
