New photos have been shared of Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, spending the day bonding with her in-laws, who just so happen to be the future king, Prince Charles, and his wife, Camilla Duchess of Cornwall. The trio all looked super jolly together whilst out at a visit to the Trinity Buoy Wharf in London (an East London centre for arts and culture) – an event that Kate received a very special invitation to from Charles, as he knows she too is highly invested in the creative industries.
Both the Duchess of Cambridge's official Instagram account (which acts as a news source for both her and Prince William) shared snippets of the special family outing, as did @ClarenceHouse, which even added a sweet message thanking Kate for joining them.
'A fantastic day meeting so many passionate and creative students at @trinitybuoywharf,' captioned a short video, showing the three royals chatting away to various artists, designers and sculptors. 'The Prince’s Foundation (@theprincesfoundation) site runs courses for all ages in traditional skills such as thatching, blacksmithing and stonemasonry, as well as others such as geometry and sculpting. Thanks @dukeandduchessofcambridge for joining us! 🎨🧵✏️'

Clarence House also shared a series of images showing Prince Charles, Camilla and Kate all getting on like a house on fire and having a right old laugh, with London's iconic O2 Arena pictured behind them.
The snaps also showed the royals getting stuck into meeting the young creators at the space and asking plenty of questions about everything from sketching to sewing.
'It was wonderful to be surrounded by creative activities at @trinitybuoywharf today - where an abundance of passion, talent and imagination is on display,' the series was captioned.
'Trinity Buoy Wharf is home to several programmes run by @theprincesfoundation, which will provide valuable skills to help prepare young people as they transition to art school, architecture school, craft colleges or directly into practice. It’s a great example of using scholarships to reach those who would not normally have access to such opportunities – keep up the brilliant work.'
