It comes as William delivered an emotional speech as he closed this year's BAFTA awards, calling for great diversity within the film industry.
The Duke of Cambridge urged those in the industry to consider greater diversity before joking about whether he should be “proud or slightly alarmed” over how many of the night’s winners “have portrayed members of my own family”.
William, who has been BAFTA president for 10 years, also reflected upon the “exceptional film-making” that made up this year’s nominations.
He was closing this year’s ceremony by presenting Kathleen Kennedy with the BAFTA Fellowship award.
