He was named honorary colonel of the force in 2023.
William was given the title, which is traditionally held by the Prince of Wales, in 2022, one day after his father King Charles III ascended to the throne. William was previously the honorary Colonel of the Irish Guards, a position that is now held by his wife, Kate Middleton. This week, William toured the barracks near his estate in Windsor and met with soldiers, medics, and physical training instructors, while hearing about the battalion’s day-to-day work on physical and mental rehabilitation.
” The barracks visit wasn’t far from William’s residence in Windsor, where Kate has been recovering since January from a “planned abdominal surgery.” Over the weekend, the Princess of Wales was absent from the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade led by the Irish Guards, only the second time she’s missed the event since 2012. A source told Us Weekly that the Guards’ honorary colonel, Kate, would be at the parade in spirit.
