Kate Middleton and Prince William braved the wet weather as they arrived at the Queen’s third and final royal garden party at Buckingham Palace.

While the 96 year old monarch was hosting the event – a tradition that’s been upheld by the Royal Family since the 1860s – Queen Elizabeth was not in attendance after it was revealed earlier this month that she wouldn’t be going to any garden parties this year.

A spokesman said at the time: "Her Majesty the Queen will be represented by other members of the royal family at this year's garden parties, with details on attendance to be confirmed in due course." Arriving today, Wednesday 25 May, Kate, 40, wore a mint green dress with puffed sleeve detailing, paired with a matching hat, as Sophie could be been in a colourful blue ensemble.

Meanwhile, husband Prince William, 39, looked dapper in a top hat, double breasted waistcoat and a tailcoat, as Prince Edward looked equally as smart.
