The Prince and Princess of Wales released a new video following Princess Kate’s fourth Christmas carol concert on Friday.
Princess Kate looked radiant as she stepped out in London for the annual event, which has now become a key fixture in the royal calendar.
This year marked a significant milestone for the future Queen, who’s easing herself into royal life after a challenging year following her cancer diagnosis back in March.
Kate was supported by her own family, Prince William and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, as well as 22 other members of the Royal Family, as well as the Middleton family.
Following the festive service, which celebrated those who have supported others, the Waleses took to social media to thank everyone who attended and shared a sweet video of the night.
The footage showed clips of the night, including Kate speaking to guests and walking around the abbey with her family.
Westminster’s glittering Christmas trees were on full show, while another clip showed the Wales children leaving their notes on a “kindness tree” erected as part of the Together at Christmas carol service dedicated to those “who have shown love, kindness and empathy to others in their communities”.
William and Kate captioned the post: “A wonderful time spent together with friends, family and those who make a real difference to the people around them.
This year’s Together at Christmas Carol Service celebrated individuals who have inspired, counselled, comforted, and above all else shown that love is the greatest gift we can receive. Thank you for all you do!”
It is the fourth time the princess has held her event at Westminster Abbey in celebration of the positive qualities found in many and to bring festive cheer to the capital and associated events around the country.
Celebrity performers included Faith, Richard E Grant and Gregory Porter, with Sir Chris Hoy giving a reading for the 1,600 guests who have supported others, whether friends or family, helped individuals through their work or volunteered.
Ahead of the concert, the Princess of Wales spoke of “challenging times” and how she “didn’t know” what this year.
Kate was heard on broadcast footage telling Paloma Faith: “I didn’t know this year was going to be the year I’ve just had.”
