Prince William and Kate Middleton attended the remembrance service at Cenotaph while Prince Charles met war veterans in India to mark Remembrance Sunday 2013 on 10 November.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took part in the commemoration led by the Queen as thousands of military veterans marched past the Cenotaph.

Prince William laid wreath to mark Remembrance Day, also known as Poppy day, to commemorate the sacrifices of members of the British and Commonwealth military forces and of civilians in times of two World Wars. The Duke of Cambridge was later joined by Princess Anne and Prince Philip in observing a two-minute silence.

Aptly dressed in a navy coat dress ensemble and sporting curly hairdo, Kate Middleton observed the ceremony from a balcony. The Duchess was accompanied by Sophie, Countess of Wessex, and Commander Tim Laurence.
