Kate Middleton recently reunited with her niece, Lilibet Diana, after five years during a private family gathering at Windsor Castle. The emotional meeting marked a significant step toward mending the royal family’s divisions.

Lilibet, now five, had not seen Kate since infancy due to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s move to the U.S. Kate expressed her joy, saying, “It’s been far too long. Lilibet has grown into such a beautiful and bright young girl.”

The reunion coincided with a celebration of Prince Harry’s reinstatement to his military honorary roles, seen as a gesture of reconciliation by King Charles. Kate congratulated Harry, saying, “I hope this marks the beginning of a new chapter for our family, filled with joy and unity.”

The gathering was reportedly positive, with warm moments shared between Harry, Meghan, and the rest of the family. The public has praised Kate’s efforts to bridge the gap, calling the reunion a hopeful step toward healing and stronger family bonds.
