The Prince and Princess of Wales stunned on Tuesday night at the Digger premiere, alongside famous faces like Tom Cruise and David Beckham. Prince William and Princess Kate waved to fans, smiled to the cameras and greeted lots of people throughout the night - but this has to be the cutest interaction of them all!
Sahrae-Lea Herbert, four, presented Princess Kate with a programme and then proceeded to bend and curtsy with ease, wearing an adorable white dress. Princess Kate had a huge smile on her face and sincerely said: "Thank you" to the youngster, while the crowd were heard making a low aww sound, while someone, possibly William, could be overheard clearly saying: "Wow".

Evie also expertly curtsied for the future Queen - a skill the two girls had been caught practising moments before the royals arrived.
For the star-studded occasion, Kate slipped into a dreamy Jenny Packham gown in a statement purple hue. The dress featured billowing balloon sleeves, a plunging neckline and an elegant train. The 44-year-old paired her red-carpet dress with the Queen Mother's Amethyst Sautoir Necklace. This piece is not often taken out of the royal vaults, but was worn by Queen Camilla at the 2012 Skyfall premiere. Kate also opted for royal earrings, inherited from her late mother-in-law Princess Diana.

While Princess Kate may be used to people curtsying in her presence, she herself still has to deliver one for senior royals like King Charles. At the annual Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey in March, Kate was then seen kissing His Majesty on the cheek, before swiftly dropping into a curtsy, effortlessly completing the move. Perhaps she was given etiquette lessons on how to execute it.
