Princess Catherine is a much loved member of the Royal Family and showing off her latest skill has only made people love her more. The princess recorded a special message for BBC Radio 2 presenter Owain Wyn Evans as he reached the final day of his 4 Nations Cycle Challenge.

The Welsh broadcaster was touched by the princesses' thoughtful message in which Catherine spoke in fluent Welsh. Evans began the challenge for BBC Children in Need, as part of his fundraising efforts.

The five-day challenge involves cycling nearly 400 miles across all four UK nations, including Scotland, Northern Ireland, England, and Wales. In her message, the princess said: “Hi Owain, it's Catherine, you're doing so well. Keep going! Wishing you all the very best!” Reacting, he said: “Stop it! No way!”

Radio 2 host Sara Cox had told him that they had a “royal surprise” for him. She said: “The Princess of Wales has got a message for you, not only that, but she's doing it in your mother tongue.” Talking about Catherine’s use of Welsh, Evans said: “It's perfect! She's doing great!” He added: “That’s just incredible. It’s amazing, Sara. Thank you, Your Highness.”

Princess Catherine has spoken Welsh in public before. In March, the Princess spoke Welsh for the first time in a joint message with Prince William to mark St David's Day. At the time, she said: “Wales is very close to our hearts, and we look forward to every visit.”

William has also spoken about the memories he and Princess Catherine have in Wales. He said: “Wales was the first place Catherine and I made our home together, on the island of Anglesey. When you make a home in Wales, you join a family of three million people, and the sense of warmth and belonging is what makes Wales unlike anywhere else.”

The three-hour Children In Need fundraising programme was broadcast live from Salford, featuring “dazzling performances, exclusive sketches and surprise appearances”.
