HELLO!'s editor-in-chief Rosie Nixon served as one of the judges for the awards, for the third year running, alongside Gaby Roslin and Dr Ranj Singh.

Last year, the Duke of Sussex said he had been "deeply moved" by children's entries in a nationwide photographic competition sharing what life is like for families living with serious health needs.

The father-of-two said: "The children and families I've had the honour of meeting over my years working with WellChild have shown incredible optimism, courage, and resilience.

"I wasn't only proud to participate as a judge in this exhibition - I was deeply moved by each and every photograph, as they capture a moment and say so much about their personal story."

It will be the couple's last public appearance before returning to Los Angeles

Prince Harry was a surprise guest at last year's WellChild Awards at Kew Gardens in June, where he swapped parenting notes with fellow dad, Ed Sheeran.

"Two is definitely a juggle," the Duke told the singer, following the birth of his and Meghan's daughter, Lilibet, on 4 June.
