Kate Middleton, Prince William’s Graduation Footage Features Queen Elizabeth II As Guest

Kate Middleton and Prince William’s college graduation footage has just been released.

Royal fan account Teatime With the Cambridges uploaded the clip via Instagram. The footage features Prince William at the age of 23 graduating from St. Andrews University in Scotland. Prince Charles, Camilla Parker Bowles, Prince Philip, and Queen Elizabeth II attended his ceremony, and they are also seen in the video.

“Just thought I would share this sweet video from William and Kate’s graduation on June 23^rd, 2005. My favorite thing about this video is Prince Charles’ huge grin when the name of his future ‘darling’ daughter-in-law was called. Even the Queen looked over at Charles!” the caption read.

The video has since been viewed 100,000 times, and royal fans couldn’t help but notice how fond the royal family has always been of Middleton.

“I absolutely love this. The whole family was so proud of William and of Catherine too,” one fan commented.

“Absolutely adorable. It’s clear how much the family loves her,” another person wrote.

“They always knew she was the one for their boy,” another fan posted.

“Queen and Prince Charles. I think they knew she was the one,” one person wrote.

“Loved that the Queen was just like any other grandmother and so happy for him. She’s the cutest,” a royal fan commented.

Prince William and Middleton’s graduation took place while they were dating for two years. At that time, Prince William still didn’t receive his official title of Duke of Cambridge so his diploma featured the name William Wales. He graduated with a degree in geography. Middleton, on the other hand, graduated with a degree in art history.

Six years later, the couple tied the knot at Westminster Abbey. And just recently, body language expert noted how the couple’s displays of affection changed this year. She said that this may be because of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who have always been touchy-feely in public since they got engaged.

“It could be a signal of delighted parenthood, but it might also have been prompted by the very tactile displays from Harry and Meghan,” she told Express (via Mirror).
