Kate Middleton ditched the smart looks today and opted for a tracksuit as she headed to Hull to meet Disability Rugby League players.
The Princess of Wales, 41, reappeared with her fingers bandaged – just three weeks after injuring her hand while trampolining with her children.
While the royal has been opting for sophisticated suits of late, she instead wore her navy blue Rugby League polo shirt and track pants with white trainers.
Despite the casual attire, Kate still brought the glamor with perfectly coiffed hair and a beautiful makeup look.
Kate made sure she could stay hands-on despite her injury, jumping into the wheelchair and playing wheelchair rugby.

In her role as patron of the Rugby Football League, Kate will take part in a Rugby League Inclusivity Day, organized by the Rugby Football League, Hull FC and the University of Hull.
The visit will highlight the significant value and impact of Disability Rugby League on its participants, their families and local communities, and shine a spotlight on the power of sport to tackle inequalities and support and develop individuals, whatever their circumstances or background.
The Rugby Football League is committed to ensuring that no one is excluded from accessing and using Rugby League.
Inclusion Day will see members of the Hull FC Rugby League wheelchair, physical disability and learning disability teams take part in training skills sessions and friendly matches.
The teams will be joined by students from Hull FC’s Center of Excellence as they learn and experience the different formats of Disability Rugby League.
Upon arrival at the Sports Center, Her Royal Highness will have the opportunity to try wheelchair rugby and take part in a training session facilitated by members of the World Cup-winning England Wheelchair Rugby League squad.
Wheelchair Rugby League is currently Rugby League’s most inclusive format, offering everyone the opportunity to play together, regardless of gender or disability.
The England Wheelchair Rugby League team were crowned world champions in November 2022 and in January the Princess of Wales hosted a reception for the team at Hampton Court Palace in recognition of their success.

During the visit, the Princess will also learn about Physical Disability Rugby League (PDRL), a full contact version of the game adapted for players with physical disabilities who want to access a running version of the sport, and Learning Disability Rugby League (LDRL ). ), a non-competitive version of the sport specially adapted for people with learning disabilities. Her Royal Highness will take part in ball skills and drills with PDRL and LDRL players, along with students from Hull FC’s Center of Excellence.
The Hull FC Center of Excellence offers a holistic, industry-specific program for 16-18 year olds interested in physical activity and working in sport, attracting and developing the best talent, both locally and from further afield. The program is committed to improving the grassroots development of Rugby League across the country and aligns both coaching and education to give students the very best opportunities to succeed and progress directly into the sporting industry or further education.
