Prince William offered a touching tribute to his brother Prince Harry as he went out to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.
To mark the renowned Irish-themed holiday, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge marched alongside the Irish Guards in Aldershot, 40 miles southwest of London.
Royal fans noticed Prince William delivering a sweet nod to Prince Harry, who is still in California, during the ceremony. On Thursday, the Duke of Cambridge was pictured in his Irish Guards Colonel uniform, which has a rich history.
Prince William Wears Similar Uniform in Happier Times With Prince Harry
Prince William, like many other members of the Royal Family, serves in the military and wears a variety of uniforms, according to Daily Express.
Prince William was dressed in uniform for his honorary status as Colonel of the Irish Guards when visiting the 1st Battalion Irish Guards with Kate Middleton. The Duchess of Cambridge looked stunning in a deep green coat dress by Laura Green, complete with matching heels and hat.
Experts have remarked that the Duke's St. Patrick's Day attire resembles the one he wore during happier times with Prince Harry. When Kate Middleton and Prince William married in 2011, the Duke wore an Irish Guards officer's stunning red outfit, which contrasted sharply with the black Royals and Blues uniforms used during Prince Harry's wedding years later.
The attire of Prince Harry's wedding and Prince William's Irish Guards are quite similar. The gold rope element, as well as the red-striped pants, white gloves, and layered breast design, are all shared by the two outfits.
When the royal couple arrived, they were greeted by a boisterous audience, with Kate Middleton receiving a special greeting by Turlough, the Irish wolf hound regimental mascot, also known as Seamus. Kate Middleton even gave the furry pal his own branch of shamrock, according to ET Online.
To commemorate the occasion, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's official Twitter account shared a 36-second behind-the-scenes video. The uniform of Prince William's honorary status as Colonel of the Irish Guards was worn. Following his promotion in 2011, he served as Colonel of the Irish Guards.

When asked about her links to the royal family, she expressed gratitude for being Princess Diana's close friend. George, her godson, is someone she adores.
Per PEOPLE, both princes have been outspoken about their own personal issues with mental health throughout the years. As an air ambulance helicopter pilot, Prince William was inspired to raise awareness about the need of supporting mental health and wellness.
Prince Harry has already spoken up about his journey to therapy. He also said that his wife, Meghan Markle, was the one who persuaded him to get assistance.
