The jubilant cheers of "We've got our Princess back" echoed on Saturday, serving as testament to the public's joy.
While she's not back full-time and is still on the road to complete recovery, Catherine looked radiant, leading her small brood just behind the King and Queen.
For the young Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, this provided another milestone in what must be a perplexing period. They are adjusting to life under the public eye, but having their mother there to guide them through the formalities of such a significant event, helped to restore a sense of normality.
Trooping was an ideal occasion for Catherine to show up a revival of the grand ceremonial tradition Britain is famous for merges with a family gathering to honour the monarch. Even though the day officially belongs to the King, it's undeniable that Charles was pleased to allow his cherished daughter-in-law a share of the limelight.
Catherine demonstrated her dedication, not only to the monarchy but also to her role as Colonel of the Irish Guards. Despite her inability to attend their Trooping rehearsal, she sent a powerful message stating her hopes to represent them "very soon", reports the Mirror.
This was the first hint that she might be well enough to make her presence felt at the ceremony itself.
The Princess surprised us all with her candid statement about her journey. Instead of a brief announcement that she would join the parade, she detailed how challenging the past few months have been for her.
She identified with others undergoing chemotherapy, discussing the good days and the bad ones when you feel weak and exhausted.
