Kate, the Princess of Wales, made a tentative return to public life for the first time since being diagnosed with cancer, attending the Trooping the Colour military parade in central London on Saturday.
The background: Kate had not been seen at a public engagement since a Christmas Day service in December. She spent two weeks in hospital in January after she underwent major abdominal surgery, and that she was receiving chemotherapy.
In a lengthy social media post on Friday evening, she said she was "making good progress" with her treatment, which she added is set to last for several more months.
The key quote: "I'm looking forward to attending The King's Birthday Parade this weekend with my family and hope to join a few public engagements over the summer, but equally knowing I am not out of the woods yet." — Princess Kate.
What else to know: Kate's emotional announcement that she had cancer came just weeks after it was disclosed that her father-in-law King Charles III had also been diagnosed with the condition. Neither has revealed what type of cancer they have.
King Charles, 75, was given the green light to resume public duties in April after doctors said they were "very encouraged" by his progress.
Trooping the Colour is a ceremonial event held each year to celebrate the King's official birthday.
