The majority of Sunday's newspapers lead with Catherine, Princess of Wales, attending the Trooping the Colour parade. The Sunday Mirror says Kate, 42, "beamed" at the annual celebration of the King's official birthday on Saturday. The paper adds that thousands "braved wet weather to cheer the mum of three" at her first public appearance since her cancer diagnosis.
"Beaming Princess Kate" made a "triumphant" return to royal duties, the Sun on Sunday reports. She joined royals at Buckingham Palace for the King's birthday Trooping the Colour, and one spectator said "she looked happy and well", the paper adds.
The Sunday Telegraph says that on a cold, grey day, the princess "proves a tonic" at Trooping the Colour on her return to public life after cancer treatment. Meanwhile, in an article for the Telegraph, former Cabinet Minister Robert Jenrick says he "shares the frustrations" of traditional Tory voters defecting to Reform UK, but warns that a vote for Nigel Farage's party would lead to a Labour "elective dictatorship". And the paper prints a cartoon of two people standing beside a sign which reads "delays", who ask: "Is it too early to start blaming Keir Starmer for everything?"
The Mail on Sunday says that Trooping the Colour was a "dazzling, dashing reminder" of the skill, discipline and loyalty of our Armed Forces, but adds that not even Seamus the Irish wolfhound, nor Apollo and Juno, the "two magnificent drum horses", could compete with "the most dazzling trouper of them all: the Princess of Wales".
The Sunday Express displays a photograph featured on many of the front pages, of the Princess of Wales smiling from the royal carriage at Trooping the Colour. The paper also speaks to Rishi Sunak, who says "we will keep the UK safe", and Keir Starmer, who adds "I'll rule with an iron grip".
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has given an interview to the Sunday Times in which he says that he draws strength from his Hindu faith to cope with "pressure of the bruising general election campaign". The paper quotes Mr Sunak as saying: "In Hinduism, there's a concept of duty called dharma, which is roughly translated as being about doing your duty and not having a focus on the outcomes of it." The paper also shows a photograph of the Princess of Wales with her daughter, Princess Charlotte, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace for Trooping the Colour.
The Observer reports that Labour and the Conservatives would "both leave the NHS with lower spending increases" than during the years of Tory austerity, according to an independent analysis of their manifestos by a leading health thinktank, the Nuffield Trust.
And the Daily Star says that a Serbian psychic predicts England will have a "thumping victory" on Sunday and go on to "win the Euros".
