Prince William sends Duchess Kate V-Day gifts from 7,000 miles away

London, Feb 15 (ANI): The Duchess of Cambridge has revealed that Prince William has sent her a card for Valentine's Day, even though he is currently in Falklands Islands.

She proudly disclosed the notoriously shy Prince's romantic gesture as she carried out her first full day of public engagements without him at Liverpool's Alder Hey Children's Hospital.

She was greeted with large crowds cheering, waving heart shaped balloons and Union flags, and wishing her a happy Valentine's Day, her first as a married woman.

At the hospital, she told about the Prince's gesture to a little admirer of hers.

Eight-year-old Jaqson Johnston-Lynch presented her with a Valentine's Day card, which said, "Dear Kate, Happy Valentine's Day. I love you, Jaqson" and a cupcake iced with the words "Jaqson loves Kate", the Telegraph reported.

"I am sorry Prince William cannot be here," he said.

"Aaaah... Do you know where he is, Jaqson? He is in the Falklands but he sent me a card this morning," she said.

Earlier, the Duchess had met recovering addicts at The Brink, an alcohol-free bar run by the charity Action on Addiction, of which she is patron, and was serenaded by the in-house choir, the Raucous Caucus Recovery Chorus. (ANI)
