Kate Middleton has been replaced at the St Patrick’s Day Parade

Kate Middleton, the future Queen, was honored by the Irish Guards in her absence at the annual St Patrick’s Day Parade.

Kate Middleton, who’s honorary colonel of the guard, was replaced at the ceremony at Aldershot by Lady Ghika, the wife of Lieutenant Colonel Major General Sir Christopher Ghika.

Ghika donned a plum coat dress for the occasion and continued a tradition by presenting the Irish Guards’ mascot, Seamus the dog, with a shamrock.

Last year, Kate the Princess of Wales attended the ceremony herself after taking over from Prince William as the colonel. For her first ceremony as the colonel, she donned a turquoise coat with a shamrock on her lapel.

As she recovers from her abdominal surgery, Kate wished the public on the occasion. A video of the Irish Guard practicing for the annual parade was posted to the Prince and Princess of Wales’ social media accounts.

During the same ceremony, Kate addressed the guard with a heartfelt speech, saying, “I really couldn’t be prouder to stand in front of you here today. It really is a true honour to be your Colonel. I am here to listen to you, to support you, and to champion you in all you do – this is a responsibility I do not take lightly.”
