Kate Middleton’s Balmoral church raises eyebrows, and here’s why

Kate Middleton recently made a stylish appearance at Crathie Kirk church in Scotland, but fans couldn’t help but wonder—why the wintery wardrobe in the middle of summer? The Princess of Wales was spotted alongside Prince William and Prince George, rocking a brown checked trench coat and a feathered hat, looking like a usual royal fashion icon, but with a controversial choice for the season.

Just like that, social media started asking questions, with fans going like: “Is it autumn already?” a follower said, while another joked about sweating in California just looking at her outfit. The weather verdict? While London may be basking in 23°C (73°F), Scotland is a different story. Sunday’s forecast peaked at a brisk 16°C (60°F), so it’s no wonder why Kate Middleton opted for a cozy coat.

But the Princess of Wales was not the only one covering from the Scottish cold! Other royals such as Queen Camilla, and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, opted for much warmer looks, which contrasted with the season and temperatures some people are experiencing in other parts of the world.

This fashion tea ends with some family time: The Wales clan spent the Bank Holiday weekend in Scotland before their kids head back to school at Lambrook next month. Yet again, Kate Middleton proves that she’s out there, balancing royal duties, family fun, and improving her health condition. The best part? She looks fabulous doing it, no matter the season.
