HELLO!'s royal reporter Alex Hurtado, who is attending the event said: "The Prince and Princess of Wales were so in sync as they stepped out on the red carpet, both wearing velvet. William was so supportive of his wife and sweetly put his hand on her back as they walked in. They were also very generous with their time, standing out to chat to Colonel Jane Davis, Vice Lord-Lieutenant for Greater London and the President and CEO of the Royal Albert Hall, James Max and James Ainscough despite the freezing temperatures."

During a conversation with nine-year-old twins, Emelie and Olivia Edwards, Kate, 44, asked: “Are you two fans of Paddington?" The girls nodded and continued, "My kiddies will be very sad; we are going to have to keep it a big secret," as she brought her finger to her lips.
The twins presented the future Queen with flowers, which were picked from the Royal Variety charity's residential care home Brinsworth House in Twickenham.
