The Red Roses kicked off against Australia at the Brighton & Hove Albion Stadium with Kate in the stands cheering on John Mitchell’s side.
It comes off the back of the Roses record 92-3 win over Samoa in Northampton.
Kate was photographed in the stands watching on just days after she showed off her new style on a trip to the national History Museum with her husband and future monarch Prince William.
Kate, Patron of the Natural History Museum, appeared to be sporting brighter blonder hair cut in her last public appearance.
She shielded kids on a school trip from torrential rain with an umbrella in a heartwarming moment.

Coming off the back of a draw with the USA, Australia took on England with Kate watching on.
In England’s impressive win against Samoa on Saturday, August 30, Jess Breach scored a hat-trick.
She also registered her 50th international try, while Helena Rowland scored 27 points.
It marked the most points scored by any England player in a Women’s Rugby World Cup game.
The Red Roses have won both their matches of the World Cup so far, scoring a total of 161 points and conceding just 10.
Kate showed up to support the side with Wills spotted earlier in the day cheering on Wales.
Kate looked hopeful for another England side victory with the team winning all seven of their previous meetings with Australia.
The side seemed well prepared to dazzle the Princess after a successful run up to today’s fixture.
Her husband the Prince of Wales was seen in the stands as the Welsh Women’s National Rugby Union Team took on Fiji in the group stage.
Wills was spotted at Sandy Park in Exeter before the two sides kicked off just before 3pm.
Neither Wales or Fiji had won a match going into the game with fans on the edge of their seats for the fixture.
Both the Prince and the Princess of Wales were all smiles today as they cheered on separate sides in different stadiums.
The prince is patron of the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) and the princess holds a similar position with the Rugby Football Union (RFU).
Kate and Will’s most recent appearance at a museum was their first engagement since the summer break.
The pair met with school pupils who had been taking part in classes aimed at connect with nature and help boost biodiversity in urban areas.
It came after Kate had opened up on how getting back to nature has helped with her cancer recovery.
On Friday, shortly after their museum engagement, the pair paid tribute to the Duchess of Kent, who died on Thursday.
The royal family are in mourning for Katharine, the wife of the late Queen’s cousin the Duke of Kent, with flags flown at half mast at Buckingham Palace and at royal residences around the country.
The duchess of Kent died peacefully at home late on Thursday night.
A formal framed notice announcing the duchess’s death was placed on the railings of the palace shortly after midday on Friday.
The King has approved a period of Royal Mourning until and including the day of the duchess’s funeral, which will be September 16.
