- Prince William and Kate wore matching blue tartan outfits for visit to Liverpool hospital.
- Pair were overheard joking that their coordinated outfits were the result of “chaos” over their wardrobes.
- Their coordinated outfits contradict Meghan Markle’s claims.
Prince William and Kate Middleton were seen wearing matching blue tartan outfits during a visit to the Royal Liverpool University Hospital today, and the pair joked they’d picked the coordinated look after a moment of “wardrobe chaos”.
The Prince and Princess of Wales were in Merseyside to thank those working in healthcare and mental health support for their efforts over the winter months. Kate wore a blue and green tartan jacket, while William wore a green jumper and blue blazer in a similar tone to his wife’s.
When meeting people at the hospital, including healthcare workers, patients, and other staff, Prince William was overheard joking with one of them that their outfits were the result of morning “chaos” over their wardrobe.
When one woman exclaimed, “you’re matching!” to the pair, William appeared to say: “Yes I know, it was slightly like wardrobe chaos this morning.”
The woman then insisted that the outfits were “coordinated,” to which he replied, “Exactly!”
King Charles III was also spotted today wearing a similarly patterned tartan kilt during his visit to Aboyne and Mid Deeside Community Shed in Aboyne, Aberdeenshire, wearing a similarly patterned tartan kilt.
And it appears that the Royal Family is sending a message, as their coordinated outfits directly contradict Meghan Markle’s claims that wearing the same colour as more senior royals is against protocol.
The Duchess claimed in one episode of Netflix’s three-part docuseries ‘Harry & Meghan‘ that she purposefully wore neutral tones while living in the UK to avoid wearing the same colour as other royals.
She stated: “To my understanding, you can’t ever wear the same colour as Her Majesty if there’s a group event. But then you also should never be wearing the same colour as one of the other more senior members of the family.”
