“Radio 1’s Teen Heroes of 2019 visited The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at Kensington Palace earlier this month, along with chart-topping superstar Camila Cabello and BBC Radio 1 DJs Clara Amfo and Greg James,” the caption read. “Now in its tenth year, @bbcradio1’s Teen Awards is the biggest teen event in the pop music calendar and shines a light on some of the UK’s most inspirational teens, seeing them crowned Teen Heroes of 2019 in front of an audience of 14-17 year-olds.”
According to the Instagram, this is the fourth consecutive year that Radio 1’s Teen Heroes have been invited to visit Kensington Palace, where they were greeted by the duke and duchess. We’re incredibly jealous.
The (ten) heroes are nominated based on their exceptional achievements, making a difference in the community, inspiring others and overcoming difficulties.
“I was so honored to be invited to Kensington Palace to meet and celebrate this year’s Teen Hero finalists with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge,” Cabello said in a statement to BBC. “Hearing the incredible things these Teen Heroes have done is so inspirational! Their passion and dedication to help others is amazing and they really blew me away!”
This year's ceremony will take place on Sunday, November 24, and will air on BBC Two in late November. So yeah…we’ll definitely be tuning in.
