LONDON − Princess Kate attended the Remembrance Sunday ceremony in central London, her second public appearance in two days, as she gradually returns to public duties after her treatment for cancer.
She watched from the balcony of a government building as members of the royal family, including King Charles, and politicians laid wreaths at the Cenotaph war memorial.
The Princess of Wales was wearing a black hat and jacket adorned with red poppies, which are worn in Britain as a symbol of respect for those who have lost their lives in conflict.
On Saturday, she appeared at the Festival of Remembrance at Royal Albert Hall.

In September, Kate said she had finished chemotherapy, but her path to full recovery would be long. At the time, the 42-year-old princess said she would be carrying out a handful of public engagements later in the year.
Before this weekend's events, her last public appearance was in October, when she met the bereaved families of three young girls who were murdered at a dance class in northwest England.
The ceremony at the Cenotaph is held on the nearest Sunday to Nov. 11 to mark the end of World War I, and pays tribute to those who lost their lives in conflict
Prince William, Kate's husband and heir to the throne, said during a visit to South Africa last week that the past year had probably been the "hardest" of his life after both Kate and his father Charles were diagnosed with undisclosed forms of cancer.
