Kate shows support by wearing Ukraine colours

- Irish Daily Mail Reporter

KATE Middleton appeared to show her support for Ukraine by wearing the royal blue of the country’s flag at a service in London yesterday.

Kate, 40, wore a bespoke Catherine Walker coat dress, matching Lock & Co hat and blue Rupert Sanderson shoes as she joined Prince William at the highprofil­e event at Westminste­r Abbey.

The duchess completed the look with a sapphire jewellery set that once belonged to her husband’s late mother, Princess Diana.

She wore the same necklace and earrings when she and William welcomed Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky and his wife Olena to Buckingham Palace in October 2020.

It comes days after Kate sported a vibrant blue jumper and a Ukrainian flag pin for a visit to the Ukrainian Cultural Centre in London.

William’s grandmothe­r Queen Elizabeth, who has recently recovered from coronaviru­s and has been experienci­ng mobility issues, had hoped to attend in person but asked her son Charles to represent her at the service.
