The Duke & Duchess of Cambridge chat with Kangaroo Island locals

1/10/2020

Last Friday, The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge heard from local business owners and first responders from Kangaroo Island - a small community off the south coast of Australia, who were impacted by devastating bushfires earlier this year.

Not only have they had to rebuild their lives from the wildfires, but they also had to manage the COVID-19 pandemic, which has impacted tourism on the island and their ability to get back to a normal life. The royal couple, joined by Grace the Koala via video link, praised the community spirit.

Kate wore her yellow Dolce & Gabbana Flutter Sleeve Crepe Dress. The colour choice is perhaps a sartorial nod to one of Australia's national colours - gold.
