Princess Kate's Henna Tattoo

Princess Kate is seven months pregnant, which means approximately two more months until baby no.3 is born. But that doesn't stop Princess Kate from going out and about, and getting a tattoo! Okay, it's a henna tattoo, which will only last a few days, but still, very impressive. For those who do not know, a henna tattoo is a temporary tattoo made of ink from plants, or as Dictionary.com puts it, "a reddish-orange dye or cosmetic made from the leaves of this plant."  Princess Kate also donned a hard hat, and went to see a newly built bridge, which will benefit many people.

In Sweden though, Princess Sofia, wife of Prince Carl Philip, competed in the largest woman's skiing competition (not the Olympics). Her two children, Prince Alexander and Prince Gabriel cheered her on.

At this point, people had not started to arrive yet, and it was mainly reporters speculating about Meghan's dress. 4:30 to 5:00 am - People started to come, mainly aristocrats, Hollywood stars, and friends of Harry and Meghan, including Oprah Winfrey, Serena Williams, and Prince Harry's ex Chelsy Davy. Reporters also interviewed people who had charities that Harry and Meghan supported. Sometime after that, (I lost track of the time,) some more celebrities and aristocrats came, including the Middletons, the Beckhams and the Clooneys, as well as some more actresses. Then, the royal family began to arrive. The first royal that I saw was Zara Tindall, who is  pregnant with her second child, who is due v...
