Whether you’ve been in a relationship for six weeks, six months or six years, finding a non-cringe way to celebrate Valentine’s Day is near impossible. Sometimes it feels like it might be just be better to skip the whole event altogether, an option our favourite royal couple have embraced for 2017.

Kensington Palace have confirmed that the couple will not be spending the 14th February together. Kate will be apart from William because she is completing royal duties by spending the day meeting air cadets at a Cambridgeshire RAF base instead.

The visit is her third of this kind since she became Royal Patron and Honorary Air Commandant of the Air Cadet Organisation in 2015.

‘Her Royal Highness will join the cadets as they view a Tutor aircraft, and participate in a personal development training session,’ a Palace statement said.

However, the couple are likely to make up for it on another day. Conveniently, they have a big date in the diary just two days before - a trip to the BAFTAs. And if that’s not a good way to celebrate Valentine's Day, we don’t know what is.
