To mark Christmas Eve, Princess Kate and her daughter, Charlotte, sat down together to play a festive duet.
As part of the Royals’ ‘Together at Christmas’ service, which aired on ITV, the Princess of Wales hosted a service with music, readings, and even a piano duet with one of her children.
Hours before the service aired, the royals dropped a teaser clip, showing her hand playing piano before being joined by a child.
The clip sparked speculation that Kate would surprise viewers with one of her children joining – and they were right.
Charlotte and her mum sat at the piano and performed a festive tune as Kate spoke about how love at Christmas comes forth in ‘gentle gestures’.

‘Christmas is a time that reminds us how deeply our lives are woven together,’ Kate said.
‘At a time when life can feel fragmented, or at times, uncertain, the Christmas season invites us to remember the power of reaching out to one another with generosity of heart, understanding and hope.
The service also featured musical performances and readings from Hannah Waddingham, Dan Smith, Kate Winslet and Chiwetel Ejiofor at Westminster.
This year, the service is focused on ‘love in all forms’.
In a statement, the royals explained: ‘Whether it’s love within families, through friendships, across communities or even through powerful moments of connection with strangers.
‘In a world that can often feel fragmented and disconnected, love is the force that reconnects us all – spanning generations, communities, cultures and faiths.
‘As we approach the Christmas season, we are reminded of the power of togetherness. The evening will highlight the transformative power of investing in one another with compassion, presence and joy.’
