Kate Middleton has a special surprise for Prince William, a heartfelt, handmade gift that shows her thoughtful side and is sure to make the future king smile.
During a visit to the Hiut Denim factory in Cardigan, Wales, the Princess of Wales watched trainees learning how to tailor the company's items. The company specializes in high-quality, sustainable denim jeans, per their website.
PEOPLE Magazine reported that each pair of Hiut jeans has an interior label that reads "Made in Wales." During her visit, Kate was asked if she wanted to put the final stitches on a pair to gift to William.
The princess lovingly sewed a label inside a pair of Hack-style jeans, per the outlet. Following, PEOPLE quoted Hiut traniee Phoebe Phillips, who spoke to the princess.

The Hiut employee added, "She said, ‘He’s going to love these.'"

The princess also interacted with other members of the Hiut family during her visit. She revealed to the company's CEO, Johann Von Loeper, that she and William have an eight-month-old cocker spaniel puppy.
Loeper told PEOPLE, “She had a rather long chat with my fiancée about our dog, about how she also has cocker spaniels and that hers is the same age as ours. It was a nice moment that broke the ice.”

Kate was seen in an Instagram reel posted by HELLO! meeting the couple's dog, telling the animal, "You are lovely!" She then revealed that the family's new puppy is a boy.
The couple's latest addition is their second dog. He joins their five-year-old spaniel, Orla.
The pup is believed to be from the litter Orla delivered in the past year. Orla was originally gifted to William, Kate, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis by Kate's brother, James Middleton, a dog breeder who also gave the couple their first dog, Lupo.
