Prince William and Kate, the Princess of Wales, stepped out for annual horse racing event Royal Ascot on Wednesday.

The royal couple traveled from Windsor Castle to southern England's Ascot Racecourse in a horse-drawn carriage, following King Charles III and Queen Camilla in their carriage. Kate wore a sunny yellow dress and matching hat for the occasion and William sported a matching yellow flower on his morning suit.
