It’s the third time the couple have attended the annual show – once in 2014 and again in 2017.

Kate, 37, wore a bespoke Alexander McQueen gown, featuring a sheer, lacy overlay with floral applique.

The stunning maxi dress cinched in at the waist and featured black panelling across the chest and shoulders.

This year, the show is hosted by comedians Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan.
