This Morning fans touched as Kate Middleton is close to tears over Holocaust survivor photos

This Morning viewers were left incredibly touched today as Kate Middleton was left close to tears over a set of Holocaust photos.

The Duchess of Cambridge, 39, appeared on This Morning today to launch ambitious project Hold Still, which will run for the next six weeks.

Brits have been asked to send in selfies and photos of their memories of the coronavirus pandemic for a national exhibition.

Speaking to hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield today, she said: "I think we’ve all been struck by the most extraordinary images that have come out."

She added: "I think as well as capturing a moment that photos have a brilliant ability to tell a story."

Earlier this year, Kate also photographed Holocaust survivors for a memorial exhibition.

Images of her photos were shown on screen and Kate appeared emotional.

The Duchess of Cambridge said that they had a "profound effect" of her, saying: "In some of these images it's about taking time to stop and reflect and really think about a moment in time.

"And for the holocaust survivors it was about telling this period in time. I suppose now it's about trying to try and be able to stop and think about this timed that we're going through."

And viewers took to Twitter to comment, with one writing: "I absolutely adore Kate Middleton, she's such a breath of fresh air and has a warm and calming influence about her. Diana would have loved her. #ThisMorning."
