Prince George and Princess Charlotte have watched as their parents once again went head to head in the sporting arena - this time in a charity yacht race won by adventurer Bear Grylls.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took part in The King's Cup regatta in the Isle of Wight, with William finishing third and Kate coming seventh in the first race.
The couple's two eldest children joined their grandparents, Carole and Michael Middleton, to watch the spectacle from a boat.
In the second race, many competitors - including Kate's team - were disqualified for not going back and starting the race at the line.
William was competing on behalf of charity Child Bereavement UK.
Kate, wearing a baseball cap with her hair in a ponytail, represented the Royal Foundation, in connection with her work on the early years development of children.
Comedian John Bishop - raising money for Action on Addiction - was also part of the event, while winner Bear Grylls skippered a yacht for wildlife conservation organisation Tusk.
It is not the first time the duke and duchess have competed against each other.
In 2011, William beat his wife in a dragon boat race in Canada, but Kate got her revenge three years later in a sailing event in Auckland, New Zealand.
William won again in 2017 in a riverboat race in the German city of Heidelberg.
William and Kate took part in the event a day earlier than planned because of bad weather forecast for Friday.
The winning team will be awarded the King's Cup, a trophy first presented by King George V at Cowes' Royal Yacht Squadron in 1920.
The duke and duchess hope the regatta will become an annual event, increasing awareness of the benefits of sport, while also raising support for their causes.
