During her recent royal engagement, Kate Middleton made a striking impression.
After a challenging year focused on her health, Catherine, Princess of Wales, resumed her royal responsibilities in September. She began October by visiting Liz, a young girl battling a severe cancer diagnosis, and dressed perfectly for this meaningful encounter.

For the meeting, Middleton wore a stylish burgundy pantsuit that fit her perfectly, paired with a neutral T-shirt beneath it. Her makeup was bolder than usual, featuring defined eyes and a rosy palette. This outfit marks a notable shift from her more laid-back style seen during her downtime, signaling a strong return to public life.
Kate Middleton helped fulfill the teen’s bucket list
Throughout her health challenges, Catherine, Princess of Wales, has been an inspiration to many, including Liz, a young girl from Harrogate. Seeking to check off some items from her bucket list, Liz was thrilled to meet both Middleton and Prince William. According to a post from the Kensington Royal account on X, Liz shared her photography with them: “A pleasure to meet with Liz at Windsor today,” included a photo of the two sharing a warm hug. “A talented young photographer whose creativity and strength has inspired us both.”
As reported by the BBC earlier this year, Liz is battling a desmoplastic small round cell tumor and has a limited life expectancy. Despite ongoing treatment and possible future plans to seek care in the U.S., Liz has been able to pursue her passion for photography with help from industry professionals. Her mother, Vicky Roboyna, remarked on the incredible opportunities Liz has received, highlighting her memorable experiences, such as backstage access to a popular show. Meeting Kate Middleton has been particularly meaningful for Liz, as both share similar struggles.
