The second in line to the throne looked a little out of place with one 13-year-old saying that he “felt sorry” for the Prince because he was unable to return balls. His wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, appeared more at ease with her volleyball skills even though she was wearing tall wedges!

For the first time since her wedding, the Duchess of Cambridge donned a tiara at tonight’s Diplomatic Reception at Buckingham Palace.

The Queen loaned the tiara to the Duchess for the state occasion; the Papyrus Tiara was once owned by the Queen Mother and most recently by the Queen’s sister, Princess Margaret.

Too bad no official photos were released from the event but rumors are that the Duchess is wearing one of her favorite brands, Alexander McQueen.
