11 Unseen Royal Photos From Prince William and Kate Middleton’s Controversial Scotland Tour
From cheeky PDA moments to a subtle break from protocol.
Prince William and Princess Catherine of Wales (more affectionately known as Kate Middleton) have touched down in Scotland for a controversial royal visit—according to some fans anyway, who've billed it as a subtle dig against Prince Harry, who is currently in London as part of his ongoing court case against Associated Newspapers. The Duke of Sussex is due to give evidence in court today.
Meanwhile, Will and Kate have been greeting crowds in Falkirk, dropping by a local pub to hear how it's giving back to the community and getting competitive over curling. The future Queen, of course, has been serving looks galore, too.
While the Prince and Princess of Wales have their own social media output, where they update fans with how their royal visit is going, there are plenty of unseen photos that we feel are too good not to share —from ones showing Kate is still very much living up to her nickname of being “The Children's Princess,” to cementing that the Prince and Princess's friendly rivalry when it comes to anything sports-related is still alive and well.
Here are 11 pictures of their tour so far which are unlikely to be shared anywhere else. Enjoy!
