G.iornata at Twickenham Stadium for the Duchess of Cambridge. Kate Middleton as a rugby player like we’ve never seen her before. Queen Elizabeth has decided to entrust to her the “patronage” left free by Prince Harry when he decided to self-exile to the United States with Meghan Markle. Thus the Duchess made her debut with the oval ball in the absolute “temple” of English and international rugby. A great pain for his brother-in-law Harry, who has always been super passionate about rugby. Not bad: Kate Middleton makes the brace so with her husband William who since 2016 is, instead, “godfather” of the Welsh national team of the oval ball, one of the strongest in the world.

The Duchess of Cambridge honored its new institutional commitment of godmother of the Rugby Football League and the Rugby Football Union with a training session in the field. For the occasion, he wore a tracksuit with the English rose, the symbol of the English national team of the oval ball. Fashionistas noticed that Kate wore black pants Nike and a light blue thermal shirt, Sweaty Betty for 60 pounds, almost 70 euros. A sporty “look” that rugby players also wear.
Middleton is a huge fan of sports in general. She is a skilled tennis player (she is the godmother of Wimbledon) she also practices hockey and rowing. To those who asked her if she liked rugby, she obviously replied yes.
