Kensington Palace confirmed on Wednesday (Jan. 30) that the pair will attend the prestigious and glitzy affair! Prince William is the president of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts and will present the Fellowship award – the highest honour bestowed by the Academy to an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to film, television or games. This year’s recipient is Thelma Schoonmaker. Duchess Kate will be on-hand to meet with BAFTA representatives and watch the ceremony.
