Kate completes the trio

The Duchess of Cambridge has made her third public appearance in three days as she joined the Action on Addiction gala dinner in London on Thursday night. Wearing a new black Temperley London dress and with a very definite little baby bump on show, Kate looked well and back in the swing of royal things after weeks of treatment for hyperemesis gravidarum. The duchess is back on duty.

The charity event took place at L'Anima restaurant in London and guests could read words of support from the duchess in the programme for the evening in which Kate said 'she couldn't be more proud' to be patron of Action on Addiction. The organisation works to help people overcome addiction and Kate became involved with their work soon after her marriage. And by attending such a high profile event at such a high profile time in her life - confirmation of her second pregnancy came just weeks ago - she is ensuring that this cause so close to her heart gets an even higher profile of its own.
