Both Kate Middleton and Prince William were kind enough to ask after Derek and the children.

Kate told the publication: “The Duchess had taken wonderful care and personally chosen all the readings, which had such a thoughtful theme of love and kindness.

“Both she and Prince William were kind enough to ask after Derek and the children. And as I was also lucky to be able to bring [son] William with me, he got the chance to see them too.”
