It’s been another busy week of royal garden parties at Buckingham Palace. After King Charles III hosted one earlier in the week, Friday’s event saw Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales take centre stage.
The Prince and Princess of Wales were joined by Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, as well as their cousin Zara Tindall.
This marks the second time William and Kate have led a Buckingham Palace garden party, following a similar event in 2025 where they honoured individuals making meaningful contributions to their communities—including the family of the late Liz Hatton, whom they had previously met at Windsor Castle.
This year’s gathering focused on recognising people connected to the couple’s patronages, military affiliations, and charitable initiatives. Among those invited were Rhian Mannings, founder of 2wish, which supports bereaved families, and Sam Stables, who established We Are Farming Minds to tackle mental health stigma within farming communities.
Take a look at some of the standout moments from the event below…
