It was presented to the late monarch as a regimental gift and was funded by the Guardsmen themselves, who each paid 12½ pence.

During the parade, Catherine had the opportunity to interact with some children, including a young boy who performed a backflip for her.

The Princess applauded the boy's performance and placed a supportive hand on his back as she led him back to his seat.
