Kate Middleton will not attend the key dress rehearsal for Trooping the Colour in June.
On May 30, Kensington Palace confirmed that the Princess of Wales, 42, will not carry out her usual role of Inspecting Officer at the traditional Colonel’s Review on June 8. Instead, the honor will fall to Lieutenant General James Bucknall, KCB, CBE.
Princess Kate, 42, has maintained a low profile since revealing on March 22 that she has cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy. However, she has recently been spotted out with her family and solo running errands, sources recently told PEOPLE. Whether or not she attends Trooping the Colour on June 15 remains to be seen.
