The Princess of Wales was elegant in navy as she met with residents of a nursing home in Slough today – where she is set to whip up a pancake as the group celebrate Shrove Tuesday.
Kate Middleton, 41, who earlier this week attended the BAFTA awards in London alongside Prince William, was all smiles as she arrived at Oxford House Nursing Home this morning.
The royal, who wore a floral face mask once inside the care home, met with staff and residents and hear how delivering high-quality, patient-focused care is at the centre of the home’s work.
The mother-of-three looked chic for the appearance, opting for a smart navy polo neck with matching trousers and recycled her trendy £470 camel coat from Max&Co.
She wore her long brunette locks down across her shoulders in a bouncy blow dry, and opted for neutral makeup, with a sweep of eyeliner and a touch of blusher on her cheeks.

Kate has worn the jacket on a number of occasions in the past, including for a visit to Scarborough and an appearance at a Cultural Centre in Reading in November.
During her visit to the home, The Princess of Wales will hear more about Oxford House’s use of cutting edge, interactive technology to stimulate and enrich the daily lives of residents.
This includes the use of an interactive sensory table which was purchased in 2020 as a creative response to the pandemic and associated restrictions, and a new interactive wall which will be used to support residents with dementia.
Kate will also join residents taking part in a pancake making activity to mark Shrove Tuesday, before visiting the home’s award-winning garden to meet with staff and volunteers.
Oxford House is a family-run nursing home that first opened its doors to residents in 1980.
The home provides nursing care for up to 34 residents, supporting them to live as full a life as possible, and prides itself on providing outstanding levels of care delivered within a homely and comfortable environment.
Oxford House also operates a domiciliary care organisation, Oxford House Community Care, which provides support to enable people in the local area to reside safely and independently in their own homes.
The visit from the mother-of-three today comes amid a busy period for Kate, who walked the red carpet alongside the Prince of Wales on Sunday evening at the BAFTAs.
The Princess sent royal fans wild as she appeared to give her husband Prince William a gentle tap on the behind while at the event.
