Kate, 40, looked as chic as ever in a delightful tonal outfit. Dressing to perfection, she chose to recycle her limited edition cashmere wool camel coat from Massimo Dutti, which she layered over an elegant camel-coloured roll neck. The Duchess teamed her stylish outerwear with a merino wool-blend turtleneck sweater from Iris and Ink and coordinated skirt, sporting a pair of glamorous suede heeled boots for the January chill.

While many of those with Covid have been admitted to larger, urban hospitals, pressures across the system have meant that frontline staff at Clitheroe Community Hospital have felt the strain. NHS Charities Together, of which Kate and William are Royal Patrons, has been instrumental in providing mental wellbeing support during this challenging period.

On Wednesday, Kate stole the show at the Foundling museum in London, wearing navy trousers, a navy roll-neck jumper and heels, and she finished with a dazzling teal coat she's worn before. She also sported some lovely gold earrings, which cost just £2.10 from Accessorize!

It's been a busy month for the Duchess - she turned 40 on 9 January. In celebration, three portraits of the royal were released to the public on her big day. Duchess Kate wore Alexander McQueen for the occasion - the same designer who created her wedding dress. The pictures were taken by royal photographer Paolo Reversi.

Kate's natural beauty was highlighted with a subtle makeup look consisting of light blush, rosy pink lips and minimal eye makeup. Her flowing brunette hair was teased into loose waves, framing her pretty features. Even more exciting, the three stunning shots will form part of the permanent collection of the National Portrait Gallery which re-opens in 2023 following re-development work.
