Kate Middleton told a well-wisher that her children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, love Jellycat cuddly toys - so we've rounded up a few of our favourite cuddly soft toy dupes.
The Prince and Princess of Wales - who also hold the titles of Baron and Baroness of Carrickfergus - were visiting Northern Ireland on an official engagement yesterday. The Royal couple posed for selfies and chatted with fans who had assembled to greet them.
After visiting a suicide prevention charity in Belfast, the Princess of Wales approached influencer Laura-Ann Barr and her one-year-old son, Barney who was in the crowd of well-wishers.
Kate asked the little boy's name and said hello, before ruffling the cuddly toy rabbit he was clutching. 'With a little bun-bun,' she added. 'I recognise those - our kiddies have got quite a few of those.'
Joining the conversation, the Prince of Wales added: 'That looks like a very lovely friend. That's been a few places.'
The 'bun-bun' in question appears to be the Jellycat Blossom Bunny and we've spotted that it's currently still in stock at John Lewis.
Anything the royal youngsters own tends to sell out quickly - and Jellycat cuddly toys are no different. The Jellycat Fuddlewuddle Puppy sold out in record time when Princess Charlotte was pictured with one in a photograph taken by the Princess of Wales when Charlotte was six months old.
