Kensington Palace Just Posted a Gorgeous Photo of Kate Middleton Alone and an Emotional Video of Prince William
Just this past weekend, Kate Middleton released a brand-new video (in a major break from tradition) to honor Mother Nature on the U.K.'s Mother's Day. But that wasn't the only social media post to get royal fans buzzing.
This morning, Kensington Palace's Instagram account released its March Rewind, a social media review of the past month, and it's quite clear that the royals have been busy. With surprising and striking looks at Princess Catherine, 43, and her husband, Prince William, 42, the March Rewind was one for the books. Here, a few highlights from their Instagram Stories.

The first slide showed a video of Prince William like we've never seen him before from St. David's Day at the start of the month. This was followed up by a striking image of the prince from his visit to the Royal Berkshire Hospital on March 5.
But perhaps the first image that truly caught my eye featured both the prince and princess on Commonwealth Day.

The notable image shows Princess Catherine in her recycled red coat dress by Catherine Walker. If you'll recall the event from earlier this month, there was not only a major shift in Catherine's body language, but she and her hubby showed off some serious PDA as well.
Also included in the March Rewind roundup was a gorgeous pic of the princess enjoying a pint alone for St. Patrick's Day.

But besides drinking on St. Patty's Day, Kate also resumed her royal duty as Colonel of the Irish Guards—a role passed onto her by King Charles and Prince William following his accession to the throne in September 2022—for the first time since 2023. She took the salute and inspected the front rank before raising a pint of Guinness at the Wellington Barracks in London.
We also got a look at Prince William's trip to Aberdeen.
Earlier this month, Kensington Palace shared an emotional video from the outing along with the Instagram caption, "An inspiring day in Aberdeen yesterday seeing all the work being done by Homewards and their partners in the area to support those in the city with lived experience of homelessness."
Things were rounded out with the aforementioned Mother's Day video from Princess Catherine. The vid originally came with a personally signed message from the princess that read, "Over the past year, nature has been our sanctuary. This Mother's Day, let us celebrate Mother Nature and recognise how our bond with the natural world can help not only nurture our inner selves, but remind us too of the role we play within the rich tapestry of life. C."

Naturally, things ended with a "thank you" slide from the Palace.

Lars von Trier threw water at Bryce Dallas Howard and insulted her father
Lars von Trier threw a glass of water in Bryce Dallas Howard's face and insulted her father because he wanted to see her "angry face". The 'Jurassic World' actress worked with the director on 2005 film 'Manderlay' and she revealed her first meeting with the moviemaker on the set in Norway came as a bit of a shock as she was subjected to a barrage of insults and a jibe about her director dad Ron Howard. Bryce told The Times newspaper: "He started insulting me: 'Your father's a terrible filmmaker.' I went: 'Lars, what are you trying to see?' and he said: 'Your angry face. I don't know what it looks like'." She went on to reveal von Trier then threw a glass of water in her face and Bryce responded by doing the same to him. The actress added: "So I threw a glass of water in his face. He goes: 'Why did you do that?' and got up and left. That was my introduction to the Lars von Trier experience." However, Bryce is adamant she wasn't upset by the encounter. She explained: "It wasn't like I went to my room and cried or anything. I was sort of delighted by it." Bryce's dad started as an actor before moving behind the camera and she hopes to do more directing in the future, but she will never give up acting completely like he did. She added: "I don't want to let go of acting as my dad has done. That would be really heartbreaking because I learn so much being on a set. I have so much fun.' Bryce is close to her filmmaker father and he recently shared a sweet tribute to her on Instagram to mark her 44th birthday earlier this year - declaring she has far exceeded the family's expectations with her huge success in the movie business. Ron wrote: "Happy Birthday, Daughter! You've always made your mom and me happy and incredibly proud. "But the scope of what you've achieved with your family and career and the future you are building exceeds our wildest hopes from back when you were this adorable kid we loved so much." It came just a day after Bryce shared her own tribute to her dad on his birthday, writing in a post on Instagram: "I love you so much Dad, more than words can say."

Meghan Markle's 'Baby Mama' Dance Compared to Princess Kate
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Meghan Markle doing the "Baby Mama" dance was compared by royal fans on TikTok to Princess Kate's regal public appearances. The Duchess of Sussex danced in hospital while heavily pregnant to try to induce Princess Lilibet's birth, while past her due date in 2021. She posted the footage on Instagram last week to mark Lili's fourth birthday and the move triggered a frenzy of both support and criticism. Among the responses, a royal fan posted footage on TikTok comparing Meghan's dance to Princess Kate during a variety of royal events, including the coronation. Meghan Markle does the "Baby Mama" dance while Princess Kate is seen during a carriage procession for Trooping the Colour, London, on June 17, 2023. Meghan Markle does the "Baby Mama" dance while Princess Kate is seen during a carriage procession for Trooping the Colour, London, on June 17, It Matters Meghan's dance sparked strong emotions on both sides with some celebrating the duchess and some criticizing her. One theme among those who opposed the video was that royals should not overshare, like celebrities do. The TikTok video exists within that discourse and was liked 134,000 times and viewed 2.2 million times after being posted with the on screen caption: "Royalty." That caption appears to invite audiences to view Meghan's dance using the conventions of monarchy as a lens. What To Know The post began by showing Meghan doing Starrkeisha's "Baby Mama" dance in the delivery room alongside Prince Harry, who was also dancing. The clip was originally released by Meghan last week to mark Lilibet's birthday on June 4, and she posted it with the message: "Four years ago today, this also happened. Both of our children were a week past their due dates... so when spicy food, all that walking, and acupuncture didn't work—there was only one thing left to do!" The TikTok post then cuts to several clips of Kate, first during Trooping the Colour, in June 2023, and then at King Charles III's coronation, in May 2023, followed by a series of other royal engagements. What People Are Saying One fan pointed out the Princess of Wales famously first caught Prince William's eye during a university cat walk show in which she wore a see through dress over a bikini. "Kate did a catwalk show in her bikini at uni trying to impress William let's not forget that," they wrote. Another reply was liked 17,800 times and read: "Meghan and Harry... happier, real, normal..." Not everyone defended Meghan. One comment read: "I just can't stop laughing. Where is Meghan's advisor. This is just bad. Big difference between celebrity and royalty." Jack Royston is chief royal correspondent for Newsweek, based in London.
