A young girl named Isla popped onto the video call after her mom Vicky said she wanted to say hello. Kate, 39, said that she was delighted to meet the 3-year-old.
“You look very nice today. I love your hairband,” the royal mom of three told her.
Isla excitedly exclaimed, “I’m a princess today. It’s snowing outside.”
Kate then replied, “Is it snowing? Ah. No way! Have you been outside? Have you made a snowman yet?” When she was told no, Vicky said with a laugh, “Mummy’s too cold.”

“It’s a pretty tricky time for everybody, but particularly now during lockdown. I wanted to check in to see how you and your family are doing,” Kate said.
Vicky replied, “It’s become a bit of a struggle since we’ve recently moved. We’ve found it a lot harder financially. But she can entertain me to keep me happy.”
