Royal fans heaped praise on Kate Middleton after a video emerged showcasing her flawless curtsy skills.

The compilation of Kate's graceful curtsies was shared on the @theroyalwatcher2 TikTok account, prompting a flurry of comments.

One particular clip showed the Princess of Wales nearly losing her balance, but she managed to recover with elegance, earning admiration for her poise. In contrast, the Duchess of Sussex previously admitted to struggling with the traditional curtsy.

During the Netflix documentary Harry and Meghan, Meghan awkwardly performed a curtsy while discussing the challenges of adapting to Royal protocols.

She described some of the customs as "a joke" when recalling her first encounter with the Queen at the Royal Lodge in Windsor in 2016.

Comparing the experience to a Medieval Times dinner and tournament, she said: "I remember we were in the car, driving and he's [Harry] like, 'You know how to curtsy, right? '. And I just thought it was a joke."

Meghan added: "Now I'm starting to realise this is a big deal. I mean, Americans will understand this. We have Medieval Times dinner and tournament. It was like that. Like, I curtsied as though I was like... 'Pleasure to meet you, Your Majesty'."

Following a formal curtsy, Meghan responded with a giggle and said: "Pleasure to meet you, Your Majesty. Like, was that okay? It was so intense."

The princess's curtsy was met with praise from social media users, who commented on her professionalism. One user wrote: "Most wonderful lady in the world."

Another added: "Kate subtly learned how to become the perfect princess, she's a class act."

A third commented: "A true lady. Wishing her get well soon."
