The conversation soon turned personal, with Catherine sharing a glimpse into family life. Their three children, she revealed, are becoming increasingly interested in film.
“They love the idea of being behind the scenes and finding out how it all happens,” she explained.
She added that movies have become more than just entertainment in the Wales household. They also serve as a way to explore more complex topics together.
“It’s a really great way to have some of the hard conversations with them,” she said, acknowledging that the family still has a long list of films to work through.
A celebratory finish
As the ceremony drew to a close, William took to the stage to present one of the evening’s most prestigious honours, the BAFTA Fellowship. The award was given to Dame Donna Langley for her contribution to film and television.
In his speech, William praised her leadership and influence within the industry.
“Her transformative leadership and unwavering commitment to creative partnership have brought some of this century’s most iconic films to audiences around the world,” he said.
