The Irish Guards, a regiment of the British army, shared a letter sent by Princess Kate on X on Saturday where she wrote that she was proud of "the entire regiment ahead of the Colonel's Review and Trooping of the Colour."

"I appreciate everyone trooping this year has been practicing for months, and dedicating many hours to ensuring their uniforms and drill are immaculate," she continued in the letter shared to social media.

It's been a hectic year for the Royal Family in Britain. Princess Kate underwent a planned abdominal surgery Jan. 16 and then remained out of the public eye. Two months later, she resurfaced in a public video, announcing she had been diagnosed with cancer and would undergo "a course of preventive chemotherapy treatment."

"I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you personally for all the wonderful messages of support and for your understanding whilst I've been recovering from surgery," Kate says in a video released by the palace. "It has been an incredibly tough couple of months for our entire family. But I've had a fantastic medical team who've taken great care of me, for which I'm so grateful."
