She saw how the College’s workshops and continued training support trainee doctors to develop safe surgical techniques and essential clinical skills in obstetrics and gynaecology.

The Duchess of Cambridge wore a bespoke Jenny Packham dress and coat with her G Collins & Sons Tanzanite Earrings and Pendent.
I really like the Duchess of Cambridge. She always looks delighted to be wherever she is. She dresses very nicely, but she never tries to upstage neither her husband nor her hosts. I think she’s genuine in her desire to shine some light on issues that she believes in. Prince William was very lucky indeed to have found her!
