Kate Middleton has donned pink yet again as she opted to wear a flowing pastel Elie Saab gown to a royal wedding.

She and Prince William, 40, were greeted by Jordan’s King Abdullah II and Queen Rania ahead of the nuptials of Crown Prince Hussein and Rajwa Al Saif in Amman, Jordan today.

Kate, who lived in Jordan for a little while when she was very young, wore her hair in a glossy 70s-esque blowout for the occasion.

The 41-year-old paired the dress, which has long romantic sleeves, a high neckline, and embroidered detail across the front and forearms, with glittering pear-shaped drop earrings and a gold clutch.

Even though the Princess donned another Elie Saab look not long ago at the Royal Buckingham Palace Garden Party last month.

She’s also favoured pink a lot lately, having worn a monochrome Alexander McQueen suit and shirt ensemble to the Foundling Museum on May 25, and optet for yet more Barbiecore vibes in a two-toned ME+EM dress at the Chelsea Flower Show last week.

Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi were also in attendance, with the 34-year-old boldly opting for a glittering off-white dress.

It wasn’t completely white, however – there’s a black belt-like detail across the waist.

Lebanese fashion designer Saab’s style tends to favour a lot of a-line silhouettes in his gowns, with plenty of sheer detailing, sparkles, and floral flair.

Kate doesn’t seem to have worn this particular pink number – which appears to be a custom version of a more revealing gown that featured in Saab’s autumn/winter 2017 collection – before.

WhatsApp users can block contacts (Picture: Getty)

WhatsApp users have been treated to a number of new features of late, from the ability to use the messaging service on more than one device, to being able to edit messages and hide chats.

However, one feature that has been around since the dawn of time is the option to block people.

Hopefully you haven’t got yourself into a bad enough situation to be blocked, but break-ups and arguments between friends can get messy.

Here’s how to work out if you’ve been blocked on the chat service WhatsApp.

Signs you’ve been blocked on WhatsApp

There are a few easy ways to tell you’re on the receiving end of that block button.

You’ll no longer see whether they’re online or their last online time and date. Some users already restrict this, so if you’ve never been able to see these things it might not all be lost.

You can’t see any updates to their contact profile photo on Whatsapp. You may not see any profile photo at all, and instead just see a blank circle.

If you send a message to this person you’ll never get the double tick, instead seeing one tick that represents undelivered. This will also never turn blue.

If you try to call the person on Whatsapp, it won’t go through.

What should I do if I’ve been blocked?

Sorry to say, but the best thing to do is leave the person alone. Don’t try to get in touch with them through other channels and respect their wishes to avoid contact with you.

They won’t receive any of the messages you sent while they had blocked you, so there’s nothing to delete.

Either wait for them to unblock you or move on, as there’s no way you can reverse it on your end.
