It was originally established by Queen Victoria - hence the name - in 1896 to "personally thank and honour people who had helped her directly, or represented her across the Empire.”Kate was handed the honour on her eighth wedding anniversary in April 2019 - when she was still the Duchess of Cambridge.
Royal wives are usually given the Royal Victorian Order or the Royal Family Order of Queen Elizabeth. They are able to collect more orders in time as their work for the family grows.
