Kate Middleton Signs Off Her Emails in a Wonderfully Informal Way

From Harper's BAZAAR

  • Kate Middleton has shared the email she sent to judges of the "Hold Still" photography competition after choosing the final 100 portraits.

  • At the end of the email, the Duchess of Cambridge signed off simply as "C" for Catherine.

  • "Hold Still" has been run in partnership with the National Portrait Gallery, and hopes to capture the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on people throughout the United Kingdom.


While it's no secret that the Duchess of Cambridge's first name is Catherine, fans might be surprised to find out that she signs off her emails in a rather informal way.

This week, the duchess shared a screenshot on Twitter of an email she'd sent to the judges of the "Hold Still" photography competition, which aims to provide snapshots of the United Kingdom during the COVID-19 pandemic.

At the end of the email, the duchess signed off as "C," forgoing her official title. The post was captioned, "An email was sent yesterday... #HoldStill2020," and in the message, Catherine revealed that she had "chosen the final 100 portraits."

This isn't the first time that Duchess Kate has shown her more personal side during the incredible project. According to People, the Duchess of Cambridge left messages on a plethora of Instagram photos, expressing her thoughts and gratitude to those who had taken part. "Thank you so much for taking part in the Hold Still project. I get so much joy from being outside and gardening too. C," the duchess wrote on one such photo.
