Kate Middleton Just Revealed Her Favorite Famous Person and It’s...Not Who We Expected

As the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton gets to meet with a ton of famous people, both royal and nonroyal. But, as it turns out, she currently has a favorite.

ICYMI: Prince William and Kate Middleton found a new way to show their support for healthcare workers while sticking to the social distancing order in place: Zoom. On Wednesday, the couple conducted a video chat with the children of medical professionals who are helping battle COVID-19. The duo made a call to Casterton Primary Academy, a school in northern England where the kids of essential workers are being cared for during these difficult times. During their chat, they met with students attending the academy (who showed off their Easter-themed projects and drawings of their loved ones), as well as the staff, whom they thanked for their hard work and dedication to the children.

According to Hello! magazine, the kids had plenty of questions for the royal couple (most of which we didn’t see). “The kids also asked them what the best famous person was that they had met—something I bet they don’t get asked very often!” Anita Ghidotti, Chief Executive of the Pendle Trust told Hello!. “The Duchess said that George has been watching lots of David Attenborough, Blue Planet and the like, so that would probably be hers.”

Middleton and Attenborough have spent time together on multiple occasions, most recently at the naming ceremony of the U.K.’s new polar research ship, the RRS Sir David Attenborough last September (pictured below).
