Summary
- Princess Kate visited Leeds Rhinos, praised for her fashion.
- The royal couple learned about the Leeds Rhinos Foundation's work.
- The visit honored Rob Burrow's legacy and MND awareness.
Princess Catherine made a notable appearance at Leeds Rhinos today, drawing praise for her fashion choices. The Princess of Wales, alongside Prince William, engaged with players and staff, learning about the Leeds Rhinos Foundation's efforts to support communities and enhance wellbeing across the city.
The visit held significant emotional weight as it honored the legacy of Rob Burrow, a former Leeds Rhinos player and prominent motor neurone disease (MND) campaigner. Prince William has a well-established connection with Burrow and his family, having previously presented CBEs for MND awareness work.
In November 2025, Prince William inaugurated the Rob Burrow Centre for Motor Neurone Disease, fulfilling a promise made before Burrow's passing in June 2024. This continued engagement underscores the couple's commitment to MND awareness and support.
Rob Burrow, diagnosed with MND in 2019, became a leading advocate, raising millions and inspiring projects like the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon and the MND center. Today's visit recommitted the Prince to a community with which he shares a profound personal history.
