Kate Middleton is always switching up her jewelry, even her engagement ring. Ever since she swapped the family heirloom for an eternity band (and then changed it back again), I’ve developed a habit of glancing at Princess Catherine’s wedding finger.

Exciting new year, exciting new charity to support—at least, that seems to be Kate Middleton’s vibe. The Princess of Wales just signed on as the newest patron of Tŷ Hafan, a Welsh charity dedicated to helping families ensure that children with life-shortening conditions live their best and most fulfilling lives.
