Prince William's 'concerned question' for Louis and Charlotte in behind-the-scenes clip

The Prince and Princess of Wales have allowed fans a sneak peek of their preparations on the morning of the Coronation in a candid-yet-slick new video.

The incredible five-minute film, posted on their YouTube account and called 'The Coronation Weekend', charts how they celebrated the crowning of King Charles along with their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Cameras had unprecedented access and show behind-the-scenes footage of them conducting walkabouts, meeting world leaders, attending the Coronation concert and getting stuck in at the Big Help Out.

But some of the most striking footage of the film comes from the morning of the Coronation itself inside their Kensington Palace home.

It shows William, Kate, Charlotte and Louis all appearing in what seems to be their living room before the children gaze out of the window looking at the car ready to whisk them to Westminster Abbey.

Dad William can then be seen talking to his two youngest before they all make their way to the waiting car.

And a lip reader has revealed the pressing question the concerned father-of-three asked his two kids before they hopped in.

According to the lip reader, he asked them: "Are you two ready?" before they all set off.

It comes after there was confusion during the Coronation as William, Kate, Charlotte and Louis appeared to arrive at Westminster Abbey after the King and Queen Camilla.

In the official order of service, they were due to arrive and take their seats in the abbey before the procession of the monarch and his wife.

It led to speculation that William and Kate were late - with reports speculating that it may have been down to the children.

However, it has also been claimed that the King and Queen arrived at the Abbey six minutes early for the service, which caused a blip to the order of service.

But it didn't knock things too much off kilter as William, Kate, Charlotte and Louis just simply joined the back of the procession.

Their eldest son Prince George was due to be in the procession anyway given his role as one of the King's pages of honour.

The new video of the family came just hours before Kate made a surprise appearance during the Eurovision Song Contest on Saturday, which was being hosted in Liverpool.

Kate played a pre-recorded instrumental piece, created by Joe Price and Kojo Samuel, during a performance by Kalush Orchestra, who won the 2022 competition.

The Ukrainian hip-hop folk band congratulated the princess on her "impressive" piano skills and thanked her for joining them, saying it highlighted the "depth of support" the UK had for the war-torn country.
