The Prince and Princess of Wales beamed as they attended the Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall tonight.
The Royal Variety Performance is an annual event that takes place either in London or in a theatre around the United Kingdom.
The Royal Variety Charity assists those who have worked professionally in the entertainment industry, and in 2024, the Charity set up a dedicated team to assist those in entertainment who are in need of mental health support.
The evening was hosted by Jason Manford and included a number of performances across theatre, comedy and music.

Alongside the theatrical performances, there were musical performances from Jessie J and Laufey.
The Prince and Princess of Wales met a number of representatives and performers from the Royal Variety Charity.
Earlier in the day, Kensington Palace announced that William would be heading to North Wales on November 25 to highlight the challenges faced by young people in coastal communities.
The future king will make three engagements during his time in North Wales.

The first will be a coastal walk at Colwyn Bay. He will join a beach walk with members of the Marine Conservation Society’s Youth Ocean Network.
The Network comprises a team of young people aged between 13 and 25 who live near the coast and collaborate with the Marine Conservation Society to enhance youth engagement in marine conservation across the UK.
William will then meet volunteers and young people who were involved in the Marine Conservations Society’s Hiraeth Yn Y Môr project.
The project joined young people with the coastal communities of Prestatyn, Rhyl, Kimmel Bay, and Towyn, in order to grow ocean literacy.
Prince William will also hear what young people have learnt through their work on the project.
After that meeting, the 43-year-old will visit an organisation called Youth Shedz at its headquarters in Mochdre.

The organisation creates safe spaces with young people who are experiencing complex challenges, such as exclusion from school, bullying and homelessness.
The final event will see William attend a comedy workshop run by Welsh comedian Kiri Pritchard-McLean, who is the co-founder of a comedy school in North Wales called Gwneud, Make, Do.
