The Duchess told hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield, “Well I am very much an amateur photographer.

"I’ve sort of learned along the way but during this time I've spent lots of time picking up my camera and taking photographs of the children because they are always around us when we are doing stuff together, which has been great."

What was Kate Middleton's 2020 photography project?

A collage of the 100 final portraits was later shared on the Kensington Royal Instagram account. The caption shared that, ‘The images present a unique record of our shared and individual experiences during this extraordinary period of history, conveying humour and grief, creativity and kindness, tragedy and hope’.
