Prince William, Kate visit September 11 Memorial

December 10, 2014 02:30

Britain's Prince William and his wife, Kate, laid flowers today at one of America's most somber sites the National Sept 11 Memorial and Museum. The couple crossed the memorial plaza in Lower Manhattan in pouring rain and wind, each holding a black umbrella.

Wearing a hot-pink, double-breasted Mulberry coat, black tights, and black stiletto-heeled pumps, Kate smiled as she spoke with memorial and museum President Joe Daniels.

The royals then laid a bouquet at one of two reflecting pools built in the footprints of the fallen towers. Each is ringed with the chiseled names of the nearly 2,900 people killed on September 11, 2001, in New York, Washington and Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
