is gearing up to host his inaugural state visit as monarch in November, extending a warm welcome to the President and First Lady of South Africa, Cyril Ramaphosa and Shepo Motsep.

While the specifics of the visit's schedule are yet to be unveiled, it is customary for state visits to the UK to include a grand state dinner where members of the royal family showcase exquisite jewels, particularly tiaras.

Should a state dinner be part of the agenda, Catherine and Queen Consort are expected to grace the occasion bedecked in magnificent headpieces.

The most recent state visit to the UK took place in 2019 when former US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump visited.

During the state dinner of that visit, Catherine dazzled in the enchanting Love Is Not tiara complemented by an elegant gown from Alexander McQueen.

Her last public appearance wearing a tiara was in December 2019 at the annual diplomatic reception held at Buckingham Palace, a tradition that had to be halted for the past two years due to the Covid pandemic.

Once again, she donned the striking Love Is Not tiara, this time paired with another exquisite creation by Alexander McQueen.

The planning for the South African state visit had commenced in the preliminary stages before the passing of the Queen in September.
