Tuesday marked the beginning of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s reign as Prince and Princess of Wales.
After ascending to the throne, King Charles III bestowed upon Prince William the title of Prince of Wales, which he retained for decades.
In addition, Charles declared that his daughter-in-law Kate would become Princess of Wales. Since Princess Diana, nobody has had the title.
Additionally, William and Kate made their first public appearance in Wales since acquiring their new titles on Tuesday.

According to a Kensington Palace press statement, the couple first visited Anglesey, Wales, where they lived for the first three years of their marriage, which is one reason they “have a strong fondness for Wales.”
During the tour, the two individuals visited with members of the RNLI Holyhead Lifeboat Station and were greeted by a little kid carrying a bouquet of flowers.
He and Kate appeared thrilled to meet one another.

Additionally, the couple appeared at St. Thomas Church in Swansea, Wales, which provides a food bank, housing, training kitchen, and other community activities.
Kensington Palace stated in a news release that “Their Royal Highnesses look forward to spending more time in Wales in the coming months and years, taking the time to build their relationship with communities in all areas of Wales.”
Additionally, William and Kate referenced Welsh culture in an Instagram post about their vacation.

The couple said, “What a warm greeting, it’s wonderful to be back!”
When he introduced William’s new title, the king stated he was “honored” to name him Prince of Wales.
The monarch went on to remark, “With Catherine by his side, I am confident that our new Prince and Princess of Wales will continue to inspire and lead our national conservation efforts, bringing the marginalized to the center where they can receive crucial assistance.”
