Let the race begin! Kate Middleton and Princes William and Harry kicked off the Tour de France in Leeds, England, on Saturday. Wearing a green Erdem coat she debuted on the royal tour in New Zealand, Kate greeted the crowd of cyclists and more than one million spectators with the royal brothers by her side. The duchess later had the honor of cutting the ribbon before 198 competitors began their journey to Harrogate, England, where Kate is expected to present the winner with the tour’s iconic yellow jersey.
