Pregnant Kate Middleton in full bloom at Queen's Coronation as due date nears [VIDEO]

Kate Middleton, who is just one month away from giving birth to her first child with Prince William, put her baby bump on full display at the Queen's Coronation anniversary service. The Duchess of Cambridge wore a beautiful peach outfit by Jenny Packham. She paired the dress with nude heels from LK Bennett and accessorized with a peach pillbox hat.

Queen Elizabeth's 60th anniversary Coronation service took place Tuesday at Westminster Abbey. Up to 2,000 guests attended the service, which honored the Queen's "60 years of commitment".

Items from Queen Elizabeth's coronation 60 years ago were on display, including the solid gold St Edwards's Crown, which was displayed on the High Altar. It is the first time the crown left the Tower of London since 1953.

Also on display was the Ampulla, a bottle from which the holy oil was poured to anoint the Queen. The Coronation Chair was also displayed

Archbishop of Canterbury the Most Rev Justin Welby said that the Coronation in 1953 had been "an ordination, a setting aside of a person for service."

The Archbishop said the Queen knelt down and prayed at the abbey's altar. "We do not know what was prayed. Her Majesty knelt at the beginning of a path of demanding devotion and utter self-sacrifice, a path she did not choose, yet to which she was called by God. Today we celebrate 60 years since that moment, 60 years of commitment…Duty done."

The Queen was joined at the abbey by family members Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, Prince William, and the Duchess of Cambridge. Other royal family members joining the service included Prince Harry, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, Lady Louise Windsor, the Princess Royal and Zara Phillips.
