The mother-of-three completed her ensemble with black suede boots from Gianvito Rossi.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">While Kate was radiant in the royal blue coat, <a target=\"_blank\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\" target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/prince_william\/index.html\" id=\"mol-757ebbd0-f628-11f0-958b-0153c2098847\">Prince William<\/a> opted for a navy sweater that perfectly complemented her look.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Today was one of a series of events designed to spotlight Scottish heritage traditions and how they are &#8216;continuing to connect communities and inspire new generations&#8217;.<\/p>\n<div class=\"artSplitter mol-img-group\" style=\"\">\n<div class=\"mol-img\">\n<div class=\"image-wrap\">  <\/div><\/div>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">The Princess of Wales dazzled in a custom tartan coat designed by a famed Savile Row tailor as she arrived in Scotland for a day of joint engagements with Prince William on Tuesday<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"artSplitter mol-img-group\" style=\"\">\n<div class=\"mol-img\">\n<div class=\"image-wrap\"> <img decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-9d7b23634fa59862\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2026\/01\/20\/17\/105672483-15480743-image-a-22_1768928941200.jpg\" height=\"917\" width=\"634\" alt=\"While they were at Radical Weavers, a tartan weaving studio in Stirling, Kate sat down for a lesson in weaving tartan as she handed over her coat to Prince William\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" style=\"max-width:100%\" loading=\"lazy\" \/> <\/div><\/div>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">While they were at Radical Weavers, a tartan weaving studio in Stirling, Kate sat down for a lesson in weaving tartan as she handed over her coat to Prince William<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">A clip of William and Kate at the studio left royal fans swooning as one X user wrote: &#8216;What a lovely couple they are, we are so lucky to have these two, our future King and Queen.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Earlier in the day, William and Catherine joined the British Olympic and Paralympic curling teams in Stirling ahead of the winter games, and even tried their hand at the sport.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Curling originated in Scotland 500 years ago and is one of the UK&#8217;s most successful winter sports \u2013 earning Team GB and Paralympics GB eight medals in total.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">But the prince and princess soon learned just how difficult it is to master the sport after being given a short introduction of how to throw the stone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Skips Bruce Mouat and Jennifer Dodds gave them a five-minute demonstration on how to push off from the rubber hack, a foothold in the ice, and use the slippery sole they were given to propel themselves forward.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">After doing a few practice lunge motions, Catherine appeared apprehensive to take to the ice and told her husband: &#8216;You can go first.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">&#8216;Are you sure?&#8217; He replied. &#8216;It won&#8217;t make a difference.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">But he confidently took a stone and bent down into position, saying &#8216;here we go, let&#8217;s see what happens&#8217;
