Kate Middleton made a surprise fashion statement during her latest royal appearance.
The Princess of Wales visited a male prison in Surrey, England, on Tuesday in support of an addiction charity and was seen with medical tape on her right hand.
According to People, Middleton injured her hand while playing on a trampoline with her children, Prince George, 10; Princess Charlotte, 8; and Prince Louis, 5.
The outlet reported a spokesperson confirmed it is “a small injury, nothing serious.”

Middleton visited HMP High Down prison to learn how inmates and their families receive addiction support, and was shown what a family goes through during a normal visit to the jail, as part of her work with The Forward Trust.
The Forward Trust is an addiction charity that offers services to help people “break the cycles of addiction or crime,” per its website.
