And today was an example of that.
The father-of-three is currently on a royal tour of the Middle East sans his wife, so he decided to throw her a shout-out by posing at the same spot one of her childhood photos was taken.

With William telling dignitaries that Kate ‘is very upset that I am coming here without her’, he obviously decided a grand gesture (of sorts) was needed… so he went and posed for his own snap.
And yes, it’s extra cute because it’s so, well, awkward.

And sure, Twitter can barely cope with the thought behind the picture.
