So the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge&#8217;s visit to the SOS Children&#8217;s Village orphanage on Friday morning was a great surprise, and many of the children were excited to see the famous couple. (This was the second time they paid a visit!)<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That nurturing of this place really comes through. It&#8217;s like an arm wrapped around you,&#8221;&nbsp;Prince William stated during the visit. Additionally, he also talked about mental health and praised the staff at the orphanage.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"text-2\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"59.5\">\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-text-only\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\" readability=\"9\">\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s important that people talk about it and it&#8217;s not too taboo,&#8221; he said about mental health awareness. &#8220;In the west, we don&#8217;t really focus on the emotional support.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Duke of Cambridge added, &#8220;What you&#8217;re all doing is amazing and you&#8217;ve got two ambassadors in us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"photo-txt-3\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"44\">\n<div class=\"column post-content__image--left post-content__image\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image--full\" src=\"https:\/\/akns-images.eonline.com\/eol_images\/Entire_Site\/2019918\/rs_634x1024-191018052251-634-Prince-William-Kate-Middleton-JR-101819.jpg?fit=inside|900:auto&amp;output-quality=90\" title=\"Prince William, Kate Middleton\" alt=\"Prince William, Kate Middleton\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"image__credits\">Chris Jackson\/PA Wire <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<section data-textblock-tracking=\"text-block-photo-text\" readability=\"28\">\n<p>Kate was also happy about returning to the SOS Children&#8217;s Village. She said she was &#8220;so glad we came back to get the full picture.&#8221; Her husband chimed in, &#8220;I could feel that there was more to talk about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Making their visit even more memorable, the royal couple joined the children for a game of cricket. During the game, Prince William accidentally hit his wife&#8217;s neck&nbsp;with the ball. &#8220;Ha! She&#8217;s my wife, so I can just about get away with it,&#8221; he quipped. Luckily, Kate was a good sport and also laughed it off.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the pair also joined the kids on the floor&nbsp;for a painting session. They even received friendship bracelets made by the little ones, a pink one for&nbsp;the Duchess of Cambridge and a blue one for Prince William. &#8220;Thank you so much for the bracelet,&#8221;&nbsp;he said. &#8220;I won&#8217;t take it off.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added,&nbsp;&#8220;My children will wonder why I&#8217;m wearing it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, unplanned visits prove to be the best ones!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"tune-in-4\" data-hook=\"scrollable-block\" readability=\"33\">\n<p class=\"tune-in__text\" data-swiftype-index=\"false\">Don&#8217;t miss <i>E!
