Kate MiddletonandPrince Williamare getting sporty!
AsPrince HarryandMeghan Marklewrap up theirwhirlwind tour Down Under, Will and Kate stepped out on Tuesday to visit Coach Core, a program that trains young people to become coaches and encourages the next generation of athletes. The royal couple will get the chance to meet new apprentices, hear from graduates and learn how the program in Essex is engaging a diverse local community with sport.
Kate, who typically dresses down for courtside events in sneakers and jackets, instead wore a black and whitepatterned Smythe blazerover a turtleneck sweater and black jeans for the appearance. She accessorized her look with morganite and diamond cushion drop earrings from one of her go-to jewelry designers,Kiki McDonough.
She even left her sneakers at home and stepped out in a pair of black heeled booties. (Of course, she’s had some practice — back in 2013,Kate famously took the volleyball court in sky-high wedges!)
Both Kate and William joined in on coaching sessions for indoor athletics. The royal mom grabbed a tennis racket to take part in one of her favorite sports.
