During her chat between songs, she also revealed that her own mother wouldn't be tuning in live to watch as she was choosing to watch Wales play rugby instead.

Katherine's family home appears to be the perfect setting for such performances, as it could be mistaken for a royal abode. Her London residence features opulent décor with high ceilings, polished flooring, antique accessories and even a grand piano.
