"Absolutely adorable." - by Grace Back
  • 23 Oct 2018

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may be taking the royal spotlight while on their Australian tour, but royal fans have been sent into a meltdown after a rare video of Prince William and Kate Middleton's graduation made its way online.

The touching footage of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge collecting their degrees from St Andrew's University in Scotland when they were just 23 was shared to Instagram account, Tea Time With The Cambridges. 

Prince Charles, Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip and Camilla Parker-Bowles watch on with pride - even beaming when Kate receives her degree.

Just thought I would share this sweet video (from @regalfille) from William and Kate's graduation on June 23rd, 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! 💕 ----------------------- #britishroyalfamily #princewilliam #dukeofcambridge #duchessofcambridge #katemiddleton #princegeorge #princesscharlotte #princelouis
