Princess Kate could don a tiara for the third time this year when Germany’s President Frank-Walter Steinmeier arrives for his state visit on December 3.<\/p>\n

The 43-year-old royal has already sparkled in formal headwear twice in 2025, suggesting another glittering appearance may be imminent.<\/p>\n

Buckingham Palace confirmed in October that President Steinmeier had accepted King Charles’s invitation for the three-day diplomatic visit to the UK.<\/p>\n

Such occasions traditionally culminate in grand state banquets on their opening evening, where female royals customarily wear tiaras as part of the formal dress code.<\/p>\n

Kensington Palace has yet to confirm the Princess of Wales’s attendance at such an event.<\/p>\n

State Visits represent crucial diplomatic engagements for the British monarchy, serving as vital channels for nurturing international relations with foreign dignitaries.<\/p>\n

These official occasions invariably feature elaborate state banquets on their inaugural evening, events marked by exceptional formality and protocol.<\/p>\n

At such gatherings, tiaras constitute essential elements of the dress code for royal women, transforming these diplomatic dinners into glittering showcases of the monarchy’s historic jewellery collection.<\/p>\n

Despite the Royal Family’s renowned assemblage of these precious headpieces, opportunities to wear them remain remarkably scarce, typically reserved for weddings and occasions demanding the highest level of ceremonial dress.<\/p>\n

Princess Kate has selected Queen Mary’s Lover’s Knot Tiara for her two formal appearances this year, establishing it as her preferred choice for state occasions.<\/p>\n

The historic piece adorned the Princess during July’s state banquet at Windsor Castle, honouring French dignitaries, marking her first tiara moment of 2025.<\/p>\n

She returned to the same sparkling headpiece in September when Windsor Castle hosted another state banquet celebrating American President Donald Trump’s diplomatic visit to Britain.<\/p>\n

This particular tiara has emerged as the Princess’s most frequently chosen piece from the royal collection, making it the likely candidate for December’s anticipated formal dinner.<\/p>\n

The Prince and Princess of Wales routinely participate in state banquets as part of their royal responsibilities, often serving as co-hosts for these prestigious diplomatic gatherings.<\/p>\n

Their attendance at December’s event appears highly probable, given their consistent presence at previous state occasions throughout the year.<\/p>\n

The German president’s visit spans three days, from Wednesday, December 3, through Friday, December 5, providing ample opportunity for formal diplomatic engagement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Princess Kate could don a tiara for the third time this year when Germany’s President Frank-Walter Steinmeier arrives…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":591887,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3940],"tags":[4080,77,533,5105,512,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-591886","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-celebrities","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-kate-middleton","11":"tag-royal","12":"tag-sgg","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115607820476559201","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/591886","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=591886"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/591886\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/591887"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=591886"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=591886"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=591886"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
