Kate Middleton paid tribute to Princess Diana during her biggest public appearance since her cancer diagnosis earlier this year.
Kate, 42, attended two events over the weekend - the Festival of Remembrance on Saturday (9 November) and the Cenotaph's Remembrance Sunday service the following day.
On the Saturday, Kate arrived the Royal Albert Hall alongside Prince William, King Charles and other members of the royal family.

During the evening, there was a sentimental nod to Princess Diana, as the orchestra began playing Guide Me, Thou Great Redeemer.
The hymn was played at Princess Diana's funeral, which took place on 6 September 1997 and was later played at Kate and William's wedding in 2011.
The tributes didn't stop there, with Kate also choosing to wear a pair of earrings, worn by Princess Diana and belonging to Queen Elizabeth ||.

The Bahrain pearl drop diamond earrings were from the Queen's private collection.
Laura Taylor, jeweller at Lorel Diamonds, told the MailOnline: "The late Queen Elizabeth frequently chose pearls for national mourning and reflective occasions, valuing their subdued beauty.
"By wearing these meaningful pieces, Kate not only honours her personal connections to Diana and the late Queen but also embraces the solemnity of the events in a way that feels both respectful and deeply personal.

"The simplicity and grace of pearls make them a respectful choice, acknowledging the significance of the event without drawing undue attention."
The weekend's event marks Kate's second appearance in a row at two major royal events, and people were over the moon to see the future Queen back on her feet.
Kate returned to work in September, revealing in an emotional 'home video' that she was cancer-free after finishing chemotherapy.
Speaking after Kate's attendance, one body language expert said that the Princess of Wales' appearance marked what seems to be a return to her 'full regal form'.

"Kate’s body language and even her styling showed a return to what looked like full regal form," body language expert Judi James told the MailOnline.
"Her facial expression became sombre once we heard the chimes of Big Ben and there was a more contained version of her clearly emotional signalling that we saw at the concert the evening before.
"Then she appeared tearful, but here her sadness registered with a fiercely regal look of stoic reflection."

James went on to explain that Kate's appearance was very much reminiscent of a previous moment, in which she carried herself like 'future queen'.
"Even her fascinator and the way she wore her hair swept up looked like a re-run of one of her most iconic 'regal' moments when she was photographed in the car, in her Covid face mask, at Philip’s funeral, looking fiercely elegant and regal and so much like a future queen," James added.
