Kate Middleton stands with 'royal sister' Duchess Sophie at emotional Remembrance Sunday service

The Princess of Wales made two consecutive appearances this weekend to pay tribute to the war dead - the first on Saturday evening at the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall and the second at the emotional Remembrance Service at the Cenotaph on Sunday morning.

As the Princess watched the King and other senior members of the Royal Family lay wreaths from the centre balcony of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, she was joined by the Duchess of Edinburgh.

With the Queen unable to attend owing to a chest infection, it was heart-warming to see the two royal women stood together as they are incredibly close, with a leading royal expert previously describing the pair as "sisters".

Speaking to OK! before, former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond explained: “I think William and Kate feel they can confide in Sophie… a rarity when there are so few people a royal can trust with their thoughts and feelings. "She is so easy to be with - which is clearly something William appreciates.
