Prince William and Kate Middleton arrive at the Earthshot event in Boston

The Prince and Princess of Wales arrived at the Earthshot event in Boston to crowds screaming with excitement.

Kate Middleton reunited with one of her prep school teachers this week who called her a "fantastic" student. 

The Princess of Wales immediately pulled Jim Embury in for a hug when she recognized her former history teacher among a crowd outside the National Maritime Museum Cornwall Thursday. 

"The things you taught me I now teach to my children," the princess told him, according to Cornwall Live. Kate and Prince William have three children: Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4. 

The Duchess of Cambridge went on to major in art history at the University of St. Andrews, where she met William.
