Kate Middleton made a rare appearance in public on Sunday as she attended church in Scotland with King Charles, her husband Prince William and their eldest son Prince George. Middleton has maintained a low profile ever since her cancer diagnosis earlier this year.
The Princessof Wales was photographed in the front seat of an SUV being driven by William with Prince George seated in the back.
On arrival at the church, soldiers from Balaklava Company, 5th Battalion Royal Regiment of Scotland, formed a guard of honour as she and other royals arrived. The Princess of Wales was dressed in a brown jacket and was seen wearing a hat.
Fans were happy to see a photo of Middletonwho has remained away from the public eye mostly this year as she undergoes treatment for cancer. They also provide substantial evidence that she was well enough to travel several hundred miles from her home in Norfolk to join the traditional royal summer vacation.

It was earlier reported that Kate and William intended to travel to Scotland for the gathering, and were expected to participate in grouse shooting expeditions.
The British Royal family takes an annual vacation in Scotland each year during the summer months.
Before Sunday's appearance, Catherine was seen only twice in public. She attended the Wimbledon Men's Final in July with her daughter Princess Charlotte and attended the colouring of troops ceremony in June.
The Princess of Wales announced in a video message in March that she had been diagnosed with cancer and was undergoing treatment.
