Captioned: 'Thank you, Boston', the images showed Kate, 40, posing with a cute Labrador during her trip to Harvard University, as well as Prince William, also 40, meeting President Joe Biden.
Posted to Instagram today, the photos captured an intimate moment shared between the royal couple when at the Earthshot Prize awards. William is seen with his hand on Kate's back as they sit together, facing away from the camera.
The heartfelt post, thanking Boston for its hospitality last week, coincided with the release of behind-the-scenes footage of the awards, posted to the global challenge's Instagram account.

They made the trip for for the Earthshot Prize Awards - an event created by William back in 2020, which annually celebrates people for their contributions to environmentalism.
In one picture, Kate was snapped crouching next to an adorable black Labrador, in a custom Emilia Wickstead, long-sleeve dress, which she paired with black pumps and Daniella Draper embellished gold hoop earrings.
The original dress costs $1,201 but doesn't come with sleeves, so it appears that the Princess of Wales had it altered. In addition, the mother-of-three toted a Mulberry blue leather handbag.
Kate was all smiles as she leaned into the pup who was tilting its head and donning a red collar.

During the trip Kate took time to venture out solo to meet emotional well-wishers outside Harvard University on Friday.
The mother-of-three was met by hundreds of excited well-wishers and took the time to greet those who had waited in the cold to meet her, asking people for their names before thanking them for their support.
In a clip of her walkabout posted on social media, Kate tells those waiting that she 'so appreciates everyone coming to say hi… it means so much'.
Kate then comforts an emotional well-wisher who says she is studying British history, saying 'don’t cry!' before telling her: 'Everyone in Boston has been so friendly'.
She continues down the line, thanking everyone for coming out to meet her.
