Duchess of Cambridge admitted she was 'nervous' ahead of first speech She towered over her hosts in four inch satin heels, and had to stoop to speak to the Queen. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were guests of His Majesty The Agong, Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Sultan Abdul, Halim Mu'adzam Shah of Kedah, and his wife Her Majesty The Queen, Raja Persaisuri Agong, Tuanku Haminah binti Hamidun. The king's title literally translates as He Who Is Made Lord, Paramount Ruler or His Conqueror Majesty The Supreme Lord of the Federation. Admiring the ladies' outfits, the Duke joked: "I've got my heels on tonight." He then told another guest: "I'm tired. It's the jet lag that is hardest. We go on from here to the Solomon Islands and then Tuvalu, have you ever been there? Me neither. Tuvalu is one of the smallest and most remote places on earth. We hope to do some fishing and snorkelling. I am very interested in the coral and whale sharks. I have dived with them before and although they are huge, they are very docile creatures - not like jaws! When the King and Queen arrived, Kate elegantly offered each of them a low curtsey. The Duke was given a gold encrusted Malay warrior's sword known as a kris. For the Duchess there was a pair of black lace peep toe shoes by the Malaysian equivalent of Jimmy Choo called Lewre with a glittering diamante clutch bag and a Batik dress. The 400 other guests walked into the Deuan Santapan Negara or Royal Banqueting Hall ahead of them, the circular tables laid out around a dais upon which a table for the royal party was laid out. The rectangular table was covered with garlands of English flowers - roses, crysanthenums and daisies. The meal was described as a 'fusion' of English and Asian cuisine. No alcohol was served although guests were offered sweet fruit juices and water.
