Kate Middleton had a
heartfelt reaction when a fan paid her a meaningful compliment during an outing
in Wales earlier this month.
On June 4, Kate, 40, and Prince
William, 39, visited Cardiff Castle alongside their children, Prince
George, 8, and Princess Charlotte, 7, in honor of Queen Elizabeth’s
Platinum Jubilee celebrations. During the outing, the family chatted with
well-wishers outside the castle.
In one sweet moment, a woman
shook Kate’s hand and told her: “You’re going to be a brilliant Princess
of Wales.”
Appearing very touched, Kate
replied: “Oh, that’s very kind.”
Gesturing towards William, she
added, “I’m in good hands.”
The moment was captured on
camera by Twitter user @Hellen3030, who tells PEOPLE: “The Cambridges are
humble and a lovely family. I flew last minute from Miami to attend the
Platinum Jubilee and decided to go to Cardiff the day before.
“I met wonderful people from
all over the world wanting to meet them. We had no idea they were
bringing Prince George and Princess Charlotte until later
on. Once we met the Cambridges, we were all mesmerized by them. I missed my
train back to London and arrived late to the Platinum Party at the Palace, but
it was all worth it!”
