Kate is glorious in green at first engagement

We’ve barely seen a glimpse of her since she announced her pregnancy two weeks ago, but Duchess of Cambridge stepped back into the spotlight last night in a stunning floor-length green gown.

Kate has been forced to cancel four engagements in the past 14 days, staying in bed fighting hyperemesis gravidarum, a rare type of extreme morning sickness.

But she was feeling well enough to dress up and present two awards at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Awards in London. She only stayed for 45 minutes however, before returning to Kensington Palace for more rest.

Kate looked stunning at the awards.

She laughed and chatted with David Beckham onstage.

At times the Duchess looked a little under the weather.
