Kate Middleton and Prince William’s final speech came with a delightful break.
The Prince and Princess of Wales, both 40, traveled to Scarborough on Thursday to launch funds to support young people’s mental health in a collaboration led by the Royal Foundation.
During the outing, Princess Kate and Prince William met a little girl named Callie Rose, who was dressed like a princess in a light blue dress and a matching bow in her hair. The couple stooped as Callie excitedly presented Kate with a bouquet of flowers, as seen in a Video shared on Twitter by Greatest Hits Radio Yorkshire Coast.
Callie also provided a light-hearted moment when she crashed Prince William’s speech. As the Prince of Wales discussed how the funding will help the community, Callie approached the couple and made them both laugh.
