The Prince and Princess of Wales have officially made their first public outing since excerpts from Prince Harry's new memoir, Spare, leaked earlier this month, revealing shocking bombshells about his fraught relationship with the Firm.

Today, Prince William and Princess Kate headed to Merseyside, a county in England, to meet with people working in health care and mental health support services. Their visit will take them to the Royal Liverpool University Hospital, where they will tour new facilities, and the Open Door Charity, which works to support young adults through community and mental health action.

The couple coordinated in forest green hues. Kate wore a green and black plaid trench coat with gold buttons. Underneath, she wore a black midi dress cinched at the waist with a thin black leather belt. She finished the look off with her signature black suede pumps and a green hand bag.

Meanwhile, William wore a blue blazer, a green sweater layered over a light blue collared top, navy trousers, and dark brown suede shoes.

While the Waleses (and, for that matter, the rest of the British royal family) have yet to publicly comment on Harry's memoir, Spare includes multiple allegations against the family, from William allegedly assaulting Harry during an argument about Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, to William and Kate reportedly encouraging Harry to wear his now infamous Nazi costume to a Halloween party.

In two new interviews that aired on ITV and CBS last Sunday, Harry spoke about his hopes to one day reconcile with his family.

"I love my father, I love my brother, and I love family," the duke told ITV. "I don't think my father or brother will read the book. … But what they have to say to me and what I have to say to them will be in private, and I hope it can stay that way."

During his segment with CBS, Harry added, "My brother and I love each other. I love him deeply. There has been a lot of pain between the two of us, especially the last six years. ... None of anything I've written, anything that I've included is ever intended to hurt my family. But it does give a full picture of the situation as we were growing up, and also squashes this idea that somehow my wife was the one that destroyed the relationship between these two brothers."
