Prince William is making his first royal outing of the year (and taking on a new patronage) after Kate Middleton announced she is in "remission" from cancer.

In addition to being a mother of three, early childhood development advocate, and cancer survivor and doing all of the official work she does with patronages and various organizations as a senior member of the royal family, Kate Middleton reportedly wears yet another hat behind-the-scenes in the royal family: Unofficial Father/Son Peacemaker.

Wearing a three-strand pearl-and-diamond necklace that had been a favorite of Queen Elizabeth II’s, Princess Kate Middleton stood by Prince William and welcomed the Emir of the State of Qatar and his wife to London for a state visit.
