Kate Middleton is often seen up front and centre with the Queen at official events and on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.The Duchess of Cambridge is lucky enough to stand in a more prominent position than her husband, Prince William, and even future King Prince Charles at times! Trooping of the Colour will make a comeback this year after two years of absence from the capital - so we can expect the royals to gather on the famous balcony for the first time since 2019.

Well, like most practices in the Royal Family - there are rules to be followed. Whether it’s Trooping of the Colour, royal weddings or coronations, every member of the monarchy must stand in their allotted place.The rules dictate that the Queen takes centre stage, with first and second in line to the throne - Prince Charles, Prince William - and their wives on either side.This means that Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall and Kate, Duchess of Cambridge, are always photographed close to - if not right next to - Her Majesty.
The strict rules make for excellent viewing, as the women are often spotted having a good chatter and exchanging happy looks as they wave at the British people watching from the gates. While most of us would shake in our boots standing by the Queen, Kate is comfortable and confident.
It’s no secret that the Duchess has a close bond with the Queen (her grandmother-in-law), and has shared snippets of their relationship with us in the past. Apparently the Queen had ‘private meetings’ with Kate while the future Duchess was dating William.
