Passenger princess.
Kate Middleton was spotted with Prince William and their three children driving to a church service at Crathie Kirk in Balmoral, Scotland on Sunday.
The future queen sat in the passenger seat as William, 43, was behind the wheel and Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, sat in the backseats.
Middleton’s blonde hair that she debuted in April looked even lighter as the sun shined on her face through the car window.
The princess wore an elegant black hat with a maroon jacket and purple top for the church service.
William, for his part, had on a black suit and a blue tie. As for the royal children, Charlotte wore a cream cardigan over a polka dot dress and her brothers both wear black sweaters over light blue collared shirts.
King Charles III and Queen Camilla were driven in a different car to the church service. The 76-year-old monarch wore a black suit over a pink shirt and his wife, 78, wore a colorful dress, a large cream shawl and a hat with a feather.
Princess Anne, who was in another car, had on a turquoise jacket with a matching collared shirt and hat.
The royal family have been enjoying their time at Charles’ Balmoral Castle since he started his annual summer holidays there last week.
Middleton and William are expected to stay in the Scottish countryside before their children head back to school.
In April, the Wales’ reached their 14th wedding anniversary and Middleton marked the occasion by debuting her blonder hairdo as the couple stepped out in Scotland.
Middleton’s sun-kissed locks shined brightly as she strode the streets of Tobermory on the Isle of Mull during the first day of her and William’s two-day tour of the Inner Hebrides.
The mother of three didn’t go full blond, but she did trade her usually dark chocolate brown hair for a more caramel hue.
Middleton and William reportedly celebrated their anniversary privately by enjoying an overnight stay in a local self-catering cottage.
The couple — who famously tied the knot in a lavish ceremony at London’s Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011 — have been able to partake in royal duties together again since Middleton announced last September that she was “cancer free.”
“I cannot tell you what a relief it is to have finally completed my chemotherapy treatment,” the royal announced in a statement on X.
“The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family,” Middleton shared, adding that she was entering her new phase of recovery “with a renewed sense of hope and appreciation of life.”
