Kate Middleton made a secret visit to the Strictly Come Dancing studios this weekend with her children Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
As a big fan of the show, it was an exciting visit for the Princess of Wales and her two children.
According to sources via The Sun, Charlotte and Louis were allowed to sit in the judges’ chairs and cast their own judgment on dancers Katya Jones and Neil Jones. The family was also introduced to presenters Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman.
Prince Louis also reportedly tried on a small gold crown to mark the occasion. How sweet!
Kate was "really relaxed" and "all smiles" for the occasion, according to a source.
The source revealed (via The Sun), “Kate and Charlotte are huge fans of Strictly so they were delighted to be invited.
“Kate took pictures of the children in the judges’ seats. She seemed really relaxed and was all smiles.
"She was polite, sweet and charming with everyone and made sure Louis didn’t get over-excited.
"There was a strict security lockdown on set and staff were told not to take any photos. The children were especially excited and got dressed up. They were thrilled to be on set and to meet their favourite celebrities.”
