The Cambridge children have appeared in a video asking Sir David Attenborough questions about ​extinction, spiders and the naturalist’s favourite animals.

This is the first time the voices of the young royals have been heard in public.  Seven-year-old Prince George, five-year-old Princess Charlotte and two-year old Prince Louis asked the 94-year-old broadcaster questions about the natural world.

Princess Charlotte wore her Thomas’s Battersea school uniform in the footage recorded at Kensington Palace last month.

The tights appear to be the dark grey Amaia ribbed tights.
