As speculated, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will attend the St. Patrick’s parade at the Mons Barracks, Aldershot, home to the 1st Battalion Irish Guards.
This will likely be the Duchess’ last appearance before the birth of her second child.
[Hello!]
The BRF was out in full force this afternoon at Westminster Abbey to attend the Commonwealth Day Observance service. The Duchess of Cambridge was all smiles in front of the cameras with Prince Charles (see Daily Mail for photos).
For all those thinking that the Duchess of Cambridge wearing pink is a sign that Prince George can expect a little sister next month, remember that she wore the very same outfit at the Trooping the Colour ceremony back on June 15, 2013 – just about a month before the birth of Prince George.
Just a reminder that the Duchess of Cambridge has a busy week ahead, likely her last set of engagements prior to resting before the birth of her second child:
Monday, 3/9: Observance for Commonwealth Day at Westminster Abbey
Wednesday, 3/11: Visit to Turner Contemporary Art Gallery in Margate
Thursday, 3/12: Downton Abbey set visit
Friday, 3/13: Service of Commemoration at St. Paul’s Cathedral honoring those who served in Afghanistan
Perhaps the Duchess of Cambridge will make her final engagement for St. Patrick’s Day on Tuesday, 3/17.
The influence of Carole Middleton in the lives of the Cambridges is being heavily scrutinized across gossip sites, including the Daily Mail (3 articles on their website today alone!). One article asserts that Mrs. Middleton is raising a “middle-class monarch” and another talks about her stepping in as caretaker at Anmer Hall – the Cambridges’ residence that is said to become their full-time home while Prince William works as an air ambulance pilot – in the wake of the sudden departure of other household staff.

On Monday, the Duchess of Cambridge attended a luncheon at the Goring Hotel celebrating their 105th anniversary. The Goring Hotel is a favorite of the Duchess’ – she and her family spent the night before her wedding there!
