Princess Kate is being celebrated for her “quiet strength” as she celebrates her 44th birthday.
In a moving tribute shared on Friday (January 9), the Welsh Guards praised the Princess of Wales for her enduring support of the armed forces community, highlighting the impact she continues to have as Colonel-in-Chief.
The regiment honored Kate’s “warmth, dedication and quiet strength”, noting that these qualities “continue to inspire countless people across the country”.
In their message, they highlighted her long-standing commitment to those who serve, writing: “Through her support of military families, veterans, and the causes we care about, she consistently demonstrates compassion, resilience, and a deep understanding of duty.” »
The tribute ended with birthday wishes and gratitude “for his continued support of the nation and those who serve it”, signed with the Welsh motto “Cymru Am Byth”.
The message comes amid a busy period for the Welsh Guards, who remain closely linked to Prince William. The Prince of Wales, who is colonel of the regiment, attended Christmas celebrations at Windsor Barracks last month. During his visit, he personally helped serve dinner to members of the First Battalion and spent time socializing with the troops in the Sergeants’ Mess, catching up on work done since his previous visit.
In recent years, the regiment has played a leading role at major royal events, including the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II, the coronation of King Charles III and Trooping the Color in 2023. Their tribute to Kate reflects a bond rooted in service, respect and shared duty.
