From a royal engagement to a fashion transformation, here are some of the milestones we’ve enjoyed witnessing from the past decade.
William and Catherine’s engagement
After a decade-long, on-off romance, Prince William announced his engagement to Kate Middleton in November 2010.
William and Catherine’s wedding
Catherine walked down the aisle at Westminster Abbey in a custom-made Alexander McQueen gown in April 2011. Her marriage to Prince William was watched by tens of millions of people around the world.
Willliam and Catherine’s babies’ births
First came George, then Charlotte, then Louis. All three royal bubs were born in the Lindo Wing of London’s St Mary’s Hospital. The couple reportedly plans to have four children, so we hope to see another birth in the near future.
Prince George’s tour down under
William and Catherine brought their bouncing baby boy on their tour of Australia and New Zealand in 2014. The trip was filled with heart-warming moments between George and his parents.
William, Catherine and Harry launch Heads Together
The two brothers and Kate teamed up to launch mental health initiative Heads Together in 2016, which works to dispel the stigma around mental illness.
Princess Charlotte’s first days of school
Kate’s severe morning sickness prevented her from accompanying a nervous Prince George to his first day of school at Thomas’s Battersea, but luckily she was able to make up for it when a more confident Charlotte followed suit in 2019.
Prince Louis’ first steps
A video released of Catherine’s ‘Back to Nature’ garden showed off the beautiful space designed by the Duchess, and also showed a then-12-month-old Prince Louis already walking.
The Cambridges and the Sussexes part ways
Kensington and Buckingham palaces announced last year that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex would no longer be working with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, choosing to pursue their own charitable endeavours.
