Kate's daring past: Unseen photos reveal youthful style

Prince William and Duchess Kate regularly triumph in rankings of the most liked and respected royal family members. While Meghan and Harry publicly criticise other royals and reveal personal details in documentaries, books, and interviews, William and Kate humbly fulfil their duties. It is no wonder that their restraint continues to earn the respect of the British public, and interest in their lives keeps growing.

Duchess Kate has officially represented the royal family at various events worldwide since her wedding to Prince William. People have become accustomed to her calm and balanced image. However, it is worth remembering that before becoming a duchess, she liked experimenting with fashion and letting loose a little.

Paparazzi photos showing Kate Middleton's party side have been available online for a long time. As it turns out, William and Kate liked to have fun even at official events when they were engaged. This was the case, for example, in July 2008 when they attended the Boodles Boxing Ball charity event. In photos documenting the event, we see Kate in a long, pink gown with a plunging neckline. Today, it would be unthinkable for her to appear in such an outfit. As for William himself, not much has changed. Well, maybe aside from the hair. Three years before the wedding, the prince could still boast a lush, blond head of hair.
