Up next was a trip to Leicester’s famous Golden Mile, which is home to one of the highest concentrations of Indian jewelry, sari, and fashion boutiques in Britain. The Princess of Wales visited a number of family-run businesses in the area, speaking with locals to understand how they work together to support the community.
Middleton will then visit the Shreeji Dham Haveli temple. Dedicated to the teachings of Shrimad Vallabhacharya Mahaprabhuji, the temple serves the local Vaishnav community, offering a space for worship and for community activities, including yoga classes, language lessons, and musical programs. The Princess will discuss Holi celebrations with local residents, learning how they mark the arrival of spring while focusing on spiritual renewal and community connection.
The Princess of Wales will next join Prince William, King Charles, Queen Camilla, and the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester for the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey. The senior royals will turn out in force on Monday to celebrate the 56 nations that make up the Commonwealth.
After a winter dominated by shades of grey and brown for Middleton’s royal wardrobe, this latest engagement is a breath of fresh air and, hopefully, the sign of brighter days to come.
