Listen, they're on a boat. - Author: Jessica - Tags: *Royals!*, fugs, royalty, #wp, #wp-post, #hasslideshow, #Import 2026-10-07 08:07, Wills and Kate [View the gallery](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/wills-and-kate-race-a-boat/) Trying to write this post has taught me that I do *not* know how a regatta works -- I mean, I know it's a boat race, but it seems very complicated! I *can* tell you that, in the final results, Wills's boat came in third, and Kate was DQed, so technically her boat came in last, and I am certain there will be gloating at Casa Cambridge tonight. Other things I can tell you: The kids were there, and they're VERY cute still, and that if you like Sporty Princesses, you are going to get one today because Kate's in full ponytail, baseball cap, and shorts. But she arrived in this: [Embed from Getty Images](https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/1160325085?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) [The top is by Sandro](https://rstyle.me/+joQkImjmpd6gVe2rjx7GxQ?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). It might have been cute with different pants, but she went nautical for the day (as did everyone, in their stripey-stripes, of which we clearly approve), so these sailor pants came out of the vault. They're LK Bennett, and interestingly, [I THINK they're the same ones she wore back when they launched this event and it was announced that they were participating](https://www.gofugyourself.com/photos/wills-and-kate-go-to-wales-talk-about-boats/the-duke-and-duchess-of-cambridge-launch-the-kings-cup-regatta-london-uk-07-may-2019-2?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). Synergy from Kate! This is Heather popping in to embed the pic because Jess is working on Royals Round-Up, and I think this is... terrible. I am not a fan of those pants in general but particularly today the the fit on them looks a little bit off; there's a certain clunkyness. It's awkward with both the shirt AND the kicks (which are her Supergas, I believe, but I don't remember if they're the [canvas](https://rstyle.me/~aUTz4?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) or [leather](https://rstyle.me/~aUTz5?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) ones). Okay, I'm out; back to your regularly scheduled Jessica. I can also tell you that if you like polo shirts, GET READY: > The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge with The King’s Cup charity ambassadors, Fara Williams for [@CentrepointUK](https://twitter.com/centrepointuk?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), Dan Snow for [@LDNairamb](https://twitter.com/LDNairamb?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), Bear Grylls for [@Tusk\_org](https://twitter.com/tusk%5Forg?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), John Bishop for [@ActionAddiction](https://twitter.com/ActionAddiction?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), Katie Thistleton for [@Place2Be](https://twitter.com/Place2Be?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), and Helen Glover for [@AFNCCF](https://twitter.com/AFNCCF?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) [pic.twitter.com/NqcAREjPJX](https://t.co/NqcAREjPJX?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) > > — Kensington Palace (@KensingtonRoyal) [August 8, 2019](https://twitter.com/KensingtonRoyal/status/1159435851782397952?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) We've got better pics of this in the post, but I thought you might want to hear the crowd reaction to Charlotte, who is SASSY, let me tell you: > WATCH: Cheeky Charlotte! This is a bit dark, but Kate just brought George and Charlotte to wave to the crowd from the window above the prizegiving stage. She poked her tongue out instead!!

I think a giant wooden spoon seems useful. ###### \[Photos: Shutterstock, Doug Peters/PA Images/INSTARimages.com, David Hartley/Shutterstock, Peter Nicholls/PA Images/INSTARimages.com, Tim Rooke/Shutterstock, INSTARimages.com.
