I saw Princess Kate on the Mall during Trooping The Colour and this is what happened [Video]

The second Saturday in June can only mean one thing in the royal calendar – Trooping The Colour.

I arrived at the Mall on the morning of 15 June at 7:00 am expecting the usual hoards of royal watchers in their prime position, opposite Buckingham Palace. What I wasn’t prepared for was the inclement weather conditions that left my umbrella inside and my trainers soaking wet.

But it wasn’t all grey, as this event was Princess Kate’s first since news of her cancer diagnosis back in March, so the eager crowds and I were in exceptionally high spirits.

The excitement grew as we began to see policemen and military members get in position, not to mention the fun addition of a shaggy pooch leading the Irish guards.

Before we knew it the bass drum could be heard banging in the distance and the royals closely followed.
