Kate Middleton Re-Wore a Special Dress for This Scottish Holiday

The Royals Issued a Rare Response to the Train Tour Controversy

Emails have resurfaced from Scottish government asking the royals to postpone their trip.

Kate Middleton and Prince William are celebrating Burns Night, Scotland's celebration of the poet, Robert Burns.

In a video message, the royals told staffers at NHS charities that they would be treated to a special lunch of "haggis, neeps, and tatties."

"Hello to everyone at NHS Tayside. We know Burns Night is a special evening for Scots around the world, a time to come together to eat, drink, and to celebrate the life and work of Robert Burns." William said.

"Sadly this year is a little different," Kate added. "And for many of you working on the frontline, tonight will be a very different occasion, as you work tirelessly through this pandemic to protect the most vulnerable in our society."

For the occasion, the duchess wore Emilia Wickstead's red tartan "Anni" dress, a dress that she wore to the Queen's Christmas dinner in 2019, and paired it with pearl earrings.

After a few months of in-person appearances, Kate and William have gone back to Zoom calls while the U.K. is locked down. Just last week, they appeared on a special video thanking nurses.
