On their official X handle, The Prince and Princess of Wales shared the beautiful picture and captioned it as “13 years ago today!”. The photo was taken by Portrait Photographer Millie Pilkington.

The royal couple's 13th wedding anniversary comes after Kate revealed about her cancer diagnosis following her two-month absence from the public eye to recover from major abdominal surgery. On March 22, the Princess of Wales also informed that she is undergoing chemotherapy.

It was reported earlier that William and Kate will not be celebrating their anniversary in a grand manner due to Catherine's health and this time it is going to be a “private affair”.

Reacting to the couple's picture, several X users commented on the post, extending wishes to the couple on their 13th wedding anniversary.

“Happy Anniversary💕 love and strength together, Prince William and Princess Catherine of Wales. Sending you all our best wishes,” one X user wrote.

“Oh Wow! This is so beautiful thank you for sharing a new picture!” another added.

Calling it “a nostalgic moment!”, a third user commented: "13 years ago today! Millie Pilkington" suggests a sweet memory of a special person, Millie Pilkington, captured on a photo 13 years ago.:

“It could be a childhood picture, a milestone event, or a fond memory. The photo likely holds sentimental value, and sharing it brings back happy thoughts and memories. What a lovely way to cherish the past and celebrate the present!”
