She's back! The Duchess of Cambridge has made her first face-to-face appearance since spending months self-isolating with her family at Anmer Hall. Kate looked beautiful in a laidback look as she visited Fakenham Garden Centre on Thursday – we bet she took local customers by surprise! Wearing a quilted Fjallraven hunting waistcoat, a pale blue shirt, brown skinny jeans and her Superga khaki trainers, the royal looked totally in her element as she returned to duties in person. It looks like she has been spending plenty of time outdoors herself, since her brunette hair looked to have been lightened in the sun, too.
