The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are currently on the fourth day of their royal tour of Pakistan.
While visiting SOS Childrenโs Village in Lahore, a charity that supports and cares for over 150 children, Kate and Prince William left a lovable impression on the minds of young children.
The royal couple sang happy birthday to Iman, 12, Ibrahim, 6, and Daniyal, 8.
Kate gave a speech that highlighted family bonds and relationships that are valued in the country.
The Duchess of Cambridge saw that family is โat the heartโ of the Pakistani culture.
โParents, children, aunts, uncles, grandparents all play important roles โ you have reminded us exactly what family means,โ she continued. โYou have shown us too that it is not simply a term that describes the relationship between blood relatives. Instead it describes those special bonds we share with those who make us feel safe and supported. It is the quality of those relationships that matters.โ

She also said a few words in Urdu which won the hearts of all Pakistanis.
“Emaan, Ibrahim aur Daniyal, app sab ko salgirah bohat bohat mubarak ho.”

She then went on to praise the work SOS Children’s Village was doing.
Iman, who has been at the village for three years, told reporters, โIt was very nice to meet the Prince and Princess. I am so happy and thankful to have them to celebrate my birthday.โ
She further added, โHer Urdu was very good!โ

Such a sweet speech! I particularly love that she highlights the fact that in Asian countries, the whole extended family helps in the looking after of kids. It truly feels like a village of support.

While everyone clearly fell in love with Kate’s speech, some also began comparing it with Bilawal Bhutto’s heavily accented Urdu.
Wow, 3 days in Pakistan & she can already speak better urdu than Bilawal https://t.co/pMpwajf8tR
