On April 29, Kate Middleton and Prince William celebrated 13 years of marriage by revealing a special snapshot from their wedding celebrations. Yet, sharp-eyed fans couldn’t help but notice a curious detail in the photo, sparking widespread discussion.
The Prince and Princess of Wales shared a black and white photograph taken by photographer Millie Pilkington on their official Instagram account, accompanied by the caption, “13 years ago today!”
In the monochrome portrait, Prince William and Princess Catherine were depicted standing side by side, wearing smiles. The royal bride held a bouquet primarily composed of lily of the valley, Queen Elizabeth‘s beloved flower. She radiated elegance in Queen Elizabeth’s Cartier Halo Tiara, paired with a white V-neck gown adorned with lace overlay, designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen.
Online, a surge of thousands of well-wishers flooded in to extend their heartfelt congratulations to the couple on this special occasion.
However, one particular detail piqued the interest of observers, who noticed that Prince William’s uniform in the photo looked different from what they remembered from 2011. One person wondered, ”Why is he wearing a black uniform in this picture? He wore a red one to his wedding. Isn’t this the uniform he wore at Harry’s wedding? Is anyone else seeing this?”
The explanation to this question is quite simple. In fact, Prince William made an outfit change after the ceremony. Initially, he wore the red tunic of the Irish Guards, as he was Colonel in Chief at the time. Later, he switched to the black uniform of the Blues and Royals, as seen in the new photo.
We extend our congratulations to this inspirational couple as well. Recently, Princess Catherine and Prince William made headlines because sources have reported that they might become King and Queen “much sooner” than planned. Check the details here.

My In-Laws Didn’t Invite My Children to Family Dinner, Disparagingly Calling Them “Baggage”
Our reader Nadine sent us an emotional letter. The fact is that her in-laws invited the whole family over for dinner, leaving her children out. To make matters worse, her husband knew this and approved of this behavior.
This is Nadine’s letter.
We decided to find out what readers think about this situation. All of them found the behavior of the husband and in-laws offensive.

- If my kids weren’t welcome at whatever function, I wouldn’t go either. © Sandy Freed / Facebook
- I would have left straight away and if my husband didn’t follow, I would have finished my marriage, when it comes to my kids no one wins over them. © Liz Russell Flaherty / Facebook
- I’d ask my hit if he cared about me and the kids. And then I’d leave the restaurant with or without him. © Faye Birkbeck / Facebook
- This happened to us for a wedding. Other kids were there. We drove 3 hours to get there, so we were stuck. That was 40 years ago. I never forgot. © Regina Mason / Facebook
- My children come first, they are not baggage’s … it does not matter if you’re blood or not, kindness should be organic. © M Otto Rittah Rxs / Facebook
- I would seriously consider whether you stay with your husband, as he clearly hasn’t accepted your children. To say that they shouldn’t be at a family gathering because they’re not blood relatives, means he agrees with your in-laws. I can only imagine how your kids feel with their ‘so called’ dad, disowning them in this manner. © James Wood / Facebook
