As the British royals welcomed their Qatari counterparts, all eyes were on Princess Catherine—but it wasn’t just her impeccable style that had fans talking.
Princess Catherine sparked concern among royal fans during the Qatar state visit. The Amir of Qatar, His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, and Her Highness Sheikha Jawaher bint Hamad bin Suhaim Al Thani are in the UK at King Charles’ invitation for an official state visit.
The King joined by Princess Catherine and Prince William welcomed the Qatari royals. True to her reputation for timeless style, Catherine turned heads in a striking monochrome look.
She wore a long maroon coat, paired flawlessly with a matching beret, leather boots, gloves, and a petite handbag. A pearl necklace and earrings added understated elegance to her ensemble.
As her photos circulated online, some eagle-eyed fans expressed concern. Observers commented that Catherine appeared “so sad,” while another noted she looked “so stressed.”
Given her cancer diagnosis earlier this year, many worried about her health. “She looks tired. Hope her treatment is going well,” one user wrote. Another added, “She had a hard year, and it took a toll on her appearance.”
More comments kept coming in. One person pointed out, “In my opinion she looks drained and tired in this Photo.” Someone else added, “She is beautiful, but she still looks sick…sorry to say so.” Another user wrote, “I’m glad she was up to be there but she still looks painfully thin. I pray she is on the upside of her battle [sic].”
Others focused on her beauty and poise. “Kate looks beautiful, radiant and well😍✨,” one admirer commented. Another shared, “The Princess of Wales looks so good, I like to see her so well.” Someone else added, “So happy to see her out for her duties! She’s stunning as usual.”
Some Royal fans even expressed excitement about seeing Catherine. One comment read “Wonderful to see the Princess of Wales! She looks so well.” Others offered advice, “Hope you’re taking care of yourself, Your Highness, I’m always thrilled when I see you again, but I’m pretty sure it must be very tough. You need to completly [sic] recover.”
Another comment read, “The Princess looking beautiful as always. Praying she remains healthy & strong living a long full life as future queen [sic].”
