Carole and Michael Middleton filmed in rare interaction with royal grandchildren at Norfolk family home
Carole and Michael Middleton have appeared in an extremely rare video taken at the Prince and Princess of Wales' family home, Anmer Hall, in Norfolk.
The Princess of Wales's mother and father were seen alongside Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis in the clip, filmed last month while the family were taking their summer break at the royal residence.
The video sees Kate announce to the nation that she has completed her course of preventative chemotherapy treatment.
Watch the full video featuring Kate's powerful message and the heartwarming family interactions in the video below.
Carole, 69, and Michael, 75, can be seen looking relaxed and casual with their daughter, son-in-law, and their three grandchildren while playing card games in the dining room at Anmer.
Carole and Michael Middleton's heartwarming bond with grandchildren
One still from the moving clip shows Kate's mother assessing the cards in her hand while George looks down at his own hand.
Little Louis can also be spotted sitting on his dad's knee.
Another lovely frame shows Charlotte getting stuck into the games as she sits between her mum and grandfather.
Carole is wearing a green leaf-print blouse, while Michael opts for a navy shirt. Similarly, Kate, 42, is wearing a paisley-print dress while her husband, also 42, chose his go-to shirt-with-rolled-up sleeves ensemble.
Princess Kate's unwavering support from family
Kate's mother and father have no doubt been an enormous support network while undergoing her treatment. Spending time with the whole family is something the Waleses embrace, as outlined in Kate's statement.
The Princess of Wales highlighted how the "complex" journey with cancer had made her and Prince William reflect on the simple yet important things in life.
Elsewhere in the heartfelt address, Kate explained how the last nine months had been "incredibly tough" for the whole family, adding that they had to find a way to navigate the unknown.
Kate began her course of preventative chemotherapy in late February after tests following unrelated abdominal surgery found that cancer was present.
She added in her statement: "Doing what I can to stay cancer-free is now my focus. Although I have finished chemotherapy, my path to healing and full recovery is long and I must continue to take each day as it comes."
The mother-of-three continued: "Despite all that has gone before, I enter this new phase of recovery with a renewed sense of hope and appreciation of life.
"William and I are so grateful for the support we have received and have drawn great strength from all those who are helping us at this time.
"Everyone's kindness, empathy and compassion have been truly humbling. To all those who are continuing their own cancer journey – I remain with you, side by side, hand in hand.
"Out of darkness, can come light, so let that light shine bright."
