The first shot set the tone for the video, as it opened with a clip of the royal family at the Trooping the Colour parade, where they all gathered in June.

Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis were all in the public eye fairly often through the year, and the "2019 in Review" video collected their appearances in one place.
Candid shots of the Duke playing with his youngest son, Prince Louis, in a tree made the video, as did a sweet clip of Prince George laughing at a soccer game.
More official moments from the year were also featured in the video, including a clip of Princess Charlotte on her first day of school at Thomas's Battersea in London.
The Duke and Duchess also included recent footage from their 2019 holiday season.
The "2019 in Review" clip showed George baking with his great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, and Prince Charlotte greeting fans outside the church during Christmas at Sandringham.

Although the Duke and Duchess of Sussex recently chose to spend the holidays away from the royal family, footage of Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and Archie was included in the "2019 in Review."
The video highlighted the moment the Duke and Duchess of Sussex showed off their son Archie to the world for the first time, as well as a photo of the extended royal family at Archie's christening.
