Prince William and Princess Kate have captured the internet’s attention once again, thanks to a recent TikTok video that features their stylish red-carpet moment from the 2020 BAFTA Film Awards. As they step back into the limelight, this nostalgic clip has gone viral, amassing over 2.7 million views since it was uploaded on July 23 by TikTok user @kittywaless.
This year, the couple has been less visible, especially after Princess Kate’s recent diagnosis and preventive chemotherapy. However, royal fans were thrilled to see her make her first official appearance of 2024 on the balcony of Buckingham Palace during the Trooping the Colour celebrations on June 15.
In the TikTok video, viewers see William and Kate taking their place before a star-studded crowd at London’s Royal Albert Hall. The prince, who has held the title of BAFTA president since 2010, was met with warm compliments as they made their way up the steps. Fans were quick to praise Kate’s stunning floor-length Alexander McQueen gown, originally worn during a 2012 visit to Malaysia, with one appreciative voice calling out, “Kate, you look beautiful!”
As the couple made their way up, the crowd also shouted praise at William, saying, “You too, Wills!” The prince responded with an adorable, yet inaudible reply, eliciting chuckles from the audience.
This lighthearted moment has resonated with fans, racking up over 392,000 likes and sparked a flurry of positive comments online. “Lmao, them laughing after they said: ‘So do you, Will,’” one user chuckled. Another shared, “They are perfect for each other. He has his mother’s sense of humor,” while a third simply remarked, “I just love them both.”
As fans reminisce about the couple’s 13-year journey together, this charming red-carpet moment serves as a delightful reminder of their enduring connection.
