Kate Middleton’s Together at Christmas carol service will air on TV tonight and a “special duet” has been teased.

The Princess of Wales’ annual festive service took place on December 5 at Westminster Abbey. It will air on Christmas Eve on ITV1 in the UK.

Since 2021, Together at Christmas has taken place each year. The theme for this year’s service was to celebrate “love in all its forms”.

The Prince and Princess of Wales’ official Instagram account shared a cryptic message on Christmas Eve, hours before the service airs.

The short clip shows someone sat at a piano, seemingly the Princess of Wales since her gorgeous sapphire engagement ring is on display.

Meanwhile, a slightly smaller hand it seen joining Kate’s.

Is this a Catherine and Charlotte duet?!?! Can’t wait to watch tonight.

Alongside the video, the caption read: “A special duet…”

The short and cryptic message has left royal fans speculating over whether Kate will be involved in another duet.

In 2021, the princess performed a duet with singer Tom Walker during her first carol service. Kate played the piano as Tom performed his song For Those Who Can’t Be Here.

Of course, fans are in a frenzy trying to guess who the duet could be between. Many have speculated that it could be the Princess of Wales and her daughter, Princess Charlotte, 10.

One fan commented: “Is this a Catherine and Charlotte duet?!?! Can’t wait to watch tonight.”

Another wrote: “This is so exciting. Can’t wait for tonight’s concert. Maybe mama and daughter duo?”

Someone else said: “Mummy and daughter duet?”

Meanwhile, another gushed: “Can’t wait to see our beautiful Princess Catherine playing the piano. So elegant.”

Before guests entered the Abbey, they reportedly enjoyed music by young performers from Future Talent. It’s a charity co-founded by the late Duchess of Kent.
