In the teaser clip, Kate said, “Today, I wanted to talk to you about the importance of being kind and looking after one another. I’m now going to join a Zoom call with some pupils from Waterloo Primary Academy in Blackpool, to find out what kindness means to them.” She then discussed the meaning of the word with the school children.

The Duchess also shared a video today of herself in a blue dress, encouraging people to submit to the Hold Still photography exhibit for the UK’s National Portrait Gallery. The museum is one of Kate’s patronages. The dress she was wearing is by Stella McCartney. She first wore the look in 2012 when she visited the National Portrait Gallery.
