The look of love! The Prince and Princess of Wales were captured sharing a sweet moment at last week’s Earthshot Prize Awards ceremony. The couple’s official social media accounts shared a batch of behind-the-scenes photos of Prince William and Catherine at the event, including one stunning picture of the pair standing close and exchanging smiles.
“Wow, such a beautiful picture!! There’s so much love between Their Royal Highnesses 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️,” one Twitter user reacted to the photo.
Alongside the images, Kensington Palace wrote, “Behind the scenes at the second annual #EarthshotPrize awards ceremony 🌎🏆 Celebrating brilliant solutions and the inspiring people behind them!”
Additional behind-the-scenes photos were published by PEOPLE on Dec. 6. “These kinds of events are always quite nerve-wracking, and there was a sense of relief afterward. It’s clear the Princess is very proud of what William has achieved with this,” photographer Chris Jackson told PEOPLE of a candid moment of Catherine following a speech given by Prince William.
Chris added, “It’s nice to document these behind the scenes as you get this genuine emotion. They are genuine moments, and she’s clearly proud of him and it’s great to capture the reality of their relationship.”
The second annual Earthshot Prize Awards ceremony was held on Dec. 2 at MGM Music Hall at Fenway in Boston. Catherine stunned at the event wearing a green Solace London dress rented from HURR, which she teamed with Princess Diana’s emerald and diamond choker necklace.
The Prince and Princess of Wales traveled to the US for the first time since 2014 for the awards ceremony. Aside from joint engagements during their trip, Catherine paid a solo visit to Harvard University and William visited the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.
The Prince and Princess reportedly left Boston after the Earthshot Prize Awards ceremony on Friday and enjoyed an outing with their children following their return to the UK. The Sunday Times reported on Dec. 3 that William and Catherine “flew back home overnight on Friday, and after being reunited with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis on Saturday morning, they made a family jaunt to the Christmas fair fundraiser at the children’s school, Lambrook.”
