Following a challenging year, Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, has been bestowed with a distinguished title by King Charles. She is now the proud recipient of The Royal Companion of The Order of the Companions of Honour, an accolade recognizing her unwavering dedication and esteemed reputation. This prestigious honor holds great significance, as Charles personally chose Kate for her ‘esteem she is held’ and ‘recognition in taking on more responsibilities.’
Both Kate and Charles have faced their own health battles with cancer treatment, fostering a closer bond between them. Her new title further solidifies her position among the most revered members of the Order of the Companion of Honour. To mark her son Prince Louis’s sixth birthday, Kate shared an adorable and unedited photograph of the young prince.
It is worth noting that Kate is not the sole recipient of royal recognition. Queen Camilla has been appointed Grand Master and First or Principal Dame Grand Cross of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, while Prince William has been designated Great Master of the Most Honourable Order of the Bath. These honors were traditionally bestowed on St George’s Day.
The Order of the Companions of Honour, established by King George V in 1917, serves to recognize outstanding achievements in diverse fields such as arts, sciences, medicine, and public service. The Order of the Garter, a highly prestigious award, was presented to the Duchess of Gloucester, Air Chief Marshal the Lord Peach, Lord Kakkar, and Lord Andrew Lloyd-Webber.
