Prince William showed off his cheeky side at the RAF base in Cyprus when he joked his wife Duchess Catherine was “camouflaged” against a Christmas tree.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge met with military personnel at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus and posed in front of a Christmas tree.
“My wife’s camouflaged against the tree,” William joked, before cheekily asking her.
“Do you want me to move out of the photo?”
The Duchess stepped out in a pair of stylish wide-legged Jigsaw trousers and a Smythe green blazer.
Both her and William visited the military servicemen to bring them Christmas presents from their families at home.
The day before the engagement, the couple invited RAF families to the grounds of their Kensington Palace to celebrate Christmas.
Kate told the guests: “William and I just wanted to pass on our huge gratitude to all of you here today.
“Not only are we grateful for you coming here to join our party, but also for the sacrifices you make on a daily basis on behalf of the nation.
She added: “As someone whose husband has served, I know how hard it feels when a loved one leaves home to do the job they’ve trained for.
“But I can’t imagine how it feels when your loved ones are away on active service over Christmas or at those special family moments.
“The absence of people you love must be especially hard at this time of year. William and I, however, hope that today shows, in some small way, how much you are all valued.”
