The Princess of Wales looked radiant as she was photographed alongside her husband Prince William following an investiture ceremony at Windsor - her first public engagement since the Wimbledon final in July.
Kate, 42, was seen meeting talented 16-year-old photographer Liz Hatton who was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer back in January.
