Kensington Palace: Behind Closed Doors
An intimate look at the palace that has been a private home to the Royal Family for more than three hundred years, and the work undertaken by Historic Royal Palaces to care for its spectacular interiors and collections. It’s where Queen Victoria spent her childhood, where Diana, Princess of Wales brought up her two sons, and where The Duke of Cambridge and his family still live today. With the help of our team of curators and conservators, we'll explore everything from Queen Victoria’s teenage years at the palace to Diana, Princess of Wales’s amazing wardrobe, including the iconic dress that she wore to dance with John Travolta at the White House.
