Royal fans rejoice! As Prince William and Kate Middleton have just launched their very own YouTube channel and to kick things off, they've shared an introductory montage of what we can expect to come - including some pretty funny outtakes.

The Duke and Duchess's first video, which has already amassed close to a million views (not bad going, eh?), sees the pair initially sitting on a sofa and addressing the camera directly, with William telling Kate, "Be careful what you say now, because these guys, they're filming" to which she laughs in response and says, "I know!"

Said video then cuts to show a series of clips of the Cambridges carrying out official duties, both in the UK and while travelling on various world tours, including a snippet of them walking the red carpet at the BAFTAs, volunteering at The Passage (a homeless charity) and even, umm, Kate shearing a sheep. So it looks as though the content we can look forward to in future will be nothing but varied!

The Cambridges also included a little 'bloopers reel' moment too, showing them discussing the pronunciation of a certain word (they're also wearing different outfits in this clip, meaning it's possibly from another video they've filmed for the channel and that they will share soon).

In this snippet, the Duchess can be seen looking a tad confused and saying, "You don't need to roll your 'R's."

William, in response, then says, "Do I not?" to which Kate simply confirms "No" before the video montage resumes, switching to a shot of the couple and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, waving on the steps of their Norfolk home, Anmer Hall.

Everyone's clicking on...

The Queen also makes a brief appearance in the video, as footage of the Duke and Duchess showing her around Kate's garden, that she created for the RHS Chelsea Flower Show in 2019, is included.

Given that William and Kate are the first working senior members of the Royal Family to start a channel, perhaps we could see the Queen, Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall follow suit one day too? What do you reckon?

All together now: "Hey guys, we're the Cambridges and welcome to our channel - please hit like and subscribe!"
