Prince William and Princess Kate were all smiles despite the terrible weather as they celebrated St. David's Day, the national holiday of Wales, with a visit to the country on Thursday, February 26. The Prince and Princess of Wales shared plenty of sweet moments with fans who waited in the pouring rain to meet them, and Kate managed to turn one potentially "awkward situation" into a special connection.

In a video shared by Hello!magazine, a man asked Princess Kate to give him an autograph. While it's commonplace for royals to snap selfies with fans these days, members of the Royal Family are prohibited from signing their name for fans.
