Catherine, Princess Royal (Catherine Charlotte Natalie Lauren Charles; born 28 January 1969), known professionally as Kate Joan, is a British supermodel, actress, entrepreneur, activist, and a member of the British royal family. The eldest daughter of King Charles III and I and American actress, Lauren Bacall, she was bestowed upon with the title following the death of her grand aunt, the late Princess Alexandra. To date, at fourty seven years long, she is currently the longest titleholder of the Princess Royal title, having superseded her 3rd great grand aunt, Charlotte, Princess Royal, at thirty nine years long.

Beginning in the 1990s, Catherine first rose to fame as a Victoria's Secret model under the pseudonym Kate Joan, during which course she became the first British model to be made a Victoria's Secret Angel, further earning her much international fame and recognition as one of the world's most popular supermodels of all time. Then, in 2007, having retired from professional modelling, Catherine subsequently established a modestly successful career as an actress, beginning with her debut role as Analise Foster in the 2008 spy film, Quantum of Solace, a role which won her an Empire Award for Best Actress, whilst also receiving much praise from critics. Following this, Catherine proceeded to gain further acclaim for her acting work, and particularly through her depiction of tough and strong female characters, made evident through her role as Kate Joan, a fictional British-German Cold War spy in the Kate Joan cinematic franchise, which was widely praised by critics for being the first successful female spy film franchise in Hollywood history. This was later followed by another major role as United States Secret Service agent, Joan Hill in the Has Fallen film series, which also earned her much acclaim, praise, and several awards despite a mixed critical reception. In addition, Catherine has also starred in a number of other films, including S.W.A.T.: Firefight, Murder on the Orient Express, The Second Queen Elizabeth, and Knives Out, as well as its sequel, Glass Onion.

In addition to her modelling and acting work, Catherine has also been actively involved in activism, especially concerning women's and children's issues. In 2014, she founded the program Women Without Silence, in order to combat domestic violence, workplace discrimination, and other related issues. In response, she was later made an honorary advisor to the Minister for Women and Equalities in 2017 by the current minister, Nicky Morgan. Aside from that, Catherine has also launched her own clothing line, Kate Joan Clothings, which is marketed as being "appropriate and fitting for all ages".

On September 2017, Catherine married American actress, Evan Rachel Wood, becoming the first member of British royalty to ever engage in a same-sex marriage. Beforehand, Catherine was in a well-publicised romantic relationship with American singer, Madonna, with the couple's relationship lasting for almost two decades long before eventually concluding on mutual terms. On the other hand, in addition to being previously unmarried for much of her life, Catherine has two biological children, Lauren and Eliza, although their father has never been publicly revealed by Catherine herself.
