The world was today given an unprecedented insight into the world of the Royals as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge entertained the US President inside a Kensington Palace drawing room.
It was the first time the room - which cost £4.5million of the taxpayers' money to refurbish - has been seen since the work was done. Just some of the items in the room included: 1) A hand made rocking horse the Obamas sent a newborn Prince George. 2) A picture of Carole and Michael Middleton on Kate and William's wedding day. 3) A photo of a fresh faced Prince William in his teenage years. 4) An iconic picture of Princess Diana with a young William and Harry. 5) What appears to be a family photo in front of the Pyramids of Egypt. 6) What looks like a black and white snap of the Duchess of Cambridge on her wedding day. 7) A wildlife photography book entitled On This Earth, A Shadow Falls. 8) A replica of White House dog, Bo, presented to George by the Obamas. 9) A comfortable looking hexagonal footstool. 10) What could be a painting by dutch artist Melchior de Hondecoeter, known for illustrating black and white horses. 11) A 70cl bottle of Smirnoff ice worth £12 and a bottle of £14 Gordon's gin sitting on a corner table. 12) A scented candle. 13) Another fine work of art by an unknown artist.
