The Prince and Princess of Wales posed for selfies with fans, while Kate even appeared to join a fan in a video call before also speaking on another fan’s phone before handing it back.
The Princess also spoke about how her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis were feeling about the big day. See what she had to say in the clip below…
Earlier in the day, the couple joined the King at a lunch for realm prime ministers and governors general at the palace.
They were also joined by the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, the Princess Royal and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence, as well as the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester and the Duke of Kent.
© GettyThere were 42 at the lunch, including the Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Australian prime minister Anthony Albanese, and prime minister of New Zealand Chris Hipkins.
Kate opted for a monochrome shift dress, believed to be by fashion favourite, Jenny Packham, while Sophie looked lovely in a pink ensemble by Suzannah London and cream accessories.
The senior royals are expected to be among the 2,300 congregation at Westminster Abbey on Saturday.
© GettyThe King and Queen Consort will travel to the Abbey in the air-conditioned Diamond Jubilee State Coach.
The service will begin at 11am and last for two hours, with the key moment coming at midday when the King is crowned.
The Archbishop of Canterbury will place the St Edward’s Crown on Charles’s head. Trumpets will sound and gun salutes will be fired across the UK.
A newly crowned Charles and Camilla will travel 1.3 miles back in the Gold State Coach after the ceremony, reversing their outward journey as they wave to the crowds, with the King wearing the Imperial State Crown. They will be joined by members of the royal family in the coronation procession.
The King and Queen Consort will also receive a royal salute in the Buckingham Palace gardens from the military troops on parade.
They will take the salute from the West Terrace after the ceremony and the servicemen and women will give three cheers – a special coronation tribute from the Armed Forces to the couple.
This will be followed by a balcony moment when the couple will be joined by other members of the royal family to watch a flypast at around 2.15pm.
