Prince William and Kate Middleton are celebrating their 12th wedding anniversary, as they have issued a new photo to mark the day. The photo shared on Saturday, showed the royal couple smiling with arms around each other as they celebrate their wedding anniversary.
On this day back in 2011 the now Prince and Princess of Wales tied the knot at Westminster Abbey.
Today Prince William and Kate Middleton celebrate their 12th anniversary together, traditionally known as the Silk anniversary, just a week ahead of King Charles’ Coronation.
In the photo, snapped by Matt Porteous, the royal couple are on their bikes under blue skies in a sunny field.
Smiling away, they have their arms around one another and it is captioned with “12 years” and a heart emoji.
The picture reflects a lot of the couple’s environmental passions, including, most recently, the Eartshot Prize they launched.
Dubbed “the most prestigious global prize for the environment in history” it is the culmination of William and Kate’s work on environmentalism and their efforts going forward.
The photographer had previously shot Prince William and Kate Middleton during their controversial Caribbean tour that saw them blasted as “tone deaf”.
Royal fans flooded the replies and comments of their anniversary posts with their best wishes.
William and Kate got married after a ten-year relationship that began when they were both university students in Scotland.
Following their wedding they have since had three children together, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
This comes just days ahead of King Charles’ upcoming Coronation on May 6.
The country will once again watch on the pomp and pageantry of the Royal family as Charles is crowned following the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II last September.
Last night, Buckingham Palace released the final photos of some senior royals ahead of the Coronation.
