Performance by Kate Middleton at Eurovision Song Contest
Celestial Moment from Kate Middleton at Eurovision Song Contest
The Eurovision Song Contest in 2023, hosted in Liverpool, witnessed an enchanting surprise when Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, displayed her musical abilities in a pre-recorded opening sequence. The royal revelation came in the shape of a brief musical piece played by Kate on a majestic piano. The melody, crafted by Joe Price and Kojo Samuel, had been previously performed by Ukraine’s Kalush Orchestra, the winner of last year’s Eurovision.

});
The Instagram page of the Prince and Duchess of Cambridge shared a post unveiling the unexpected moment: “A #Eurovision surprise. A joy to collaborate with @kalush.official in a special rendition of last year’s victorious @eurovision entry. Enjoy the spectacle, Liverpool.”
In a respectful gesture towards Ukraine, which hosted the event in representation of Liverpool, Kate opted for a regal blue, single-shoulder Jenny Packham gown. Her attire symbolically echoed the colors of Ukraine’s flag, blue and yellow. Moreover, she paid homage to the late Queen Elizabeth II by wearing sapphire earrings that were once part of the monarch’s jewelry collection.
The musical presentation was filmed earlier this month in the elegant Crimson Drawing Room of Windsor Castle. This occasion marked the second time Kate publicly exhibited her musical talent. Previously, she provided piano accompaniment for singer Tom Walker during a televised Christmas Eve service at Westminster Abbey in London in December 2021.

Recently, Kate, along with her spouse Prince William and their children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—accompanied the rest of the royal family in attending the coronation of the new ruler, King Charles III, and his queen, Camilla, at Westminster Abbey. The family’s presence at the Abbey adds significance to Kate’s musical display, linking her past performances and her ongoing involvement in the arts.
Kate Middleton’s surprising musical showcase at the Eurovision Song Contest once more exhibited her skill and adaptability. Beyond her royal responsibilities, the duchess continues to astound with her love for music, showing her support for the global event and paying respects to both Ukraine and the late Queen Elizabeth II.
