Only the bride had a more radiant smile. Kate Middleton was positively glowing as she and long-term love Prince William attended a friend's wedding.
Wearing an elegant cobalt blue dress, believed to be by Issa, the brand favoured by the young royal set, a black blazer and skyscraper heels, the 28-year-old looked every inch the princess-in-waiting. In a sign that she's already conscious of royal protocol, the attractive brunette complemented her outfit with a wide-brimmed hat, adorned with feathers.
Both the Prince and his sweetheart were sporting healthy tans – the result of a safari in Kenya to celebrate Wills passing his RAF helicopter search and rescue course Unlike other weddings, at which the young lovers have walked separately so as not to attract the attention of photographers, the couple strolled happily to the church in Gloucestershire together, exchanging jokes.
They were in the village of Northleach to see showjumper Harry Meade, 27, marry primary school teacher Rosie Bradford, 30. As was revealed in HELLO! recently, William and Kate have been living as man and wife in North Wales, where he works long hours as a search and rescue pilot at RAF Valley on the Isle of Anglesey.
