Astonishingly, it fit her perfectly, without any adjustments at all.

As she told a member of the crowd on one of her later walkabouts: 'It was the same size; it is very special. What an honour to be able to wear it.'

In marrying the elder son of Prince Charles, Catherine was aware she'd one day have to tread in her late mother-in-law's footsteps —but the prospect of becoming the Princess of Wales held little appeal.

She knew she'd inevitably be compared with Diana, whose untimely death had provoked such a tsunami of anger and grief. And she was right. The similarities and differences between the two women were dissected ad infinitum, and even discussed in the royal household.

Kate found all such talk stressful. Indeed, it got to the point where she felt she might follow Camilla (who opted to become Duchess of Cornwall) in refusing — when the time came — to be known as HRH Princess of Wale
