The Prince and Princess of Wales shared a joint video message entirely in Welsh on Sunday to mark St David's Day, the first time both have spoken Welsh publicly together. Catherine spoke Welsh for the very first time, while William delivered his first Welsh message last year. Kensington Palace posted the video, recorded at Frogmore House on the Windsor estate. The couple had visited Powys, Wales earlier in the week ahead of the national celebration on 1 March.
