In the video message, the princess said: "Hello everyone. I’m delighted that Children in Need have invited me to open this evening’s show.
"Tonight is all about helping to support, champion and empower all children to be the very best they can be, which is crucial for their future health and happiness."
Kate went on to explain how her campaign Shaping Us, which focuses on the early years, has helped support Children in Need.
She added: "Our relationships, surroundings and experiences during the earliest years lay the foundations that shape the rest of our lives.

"And yet sadly, we know that for too many people, stressful and traumatic situations in early childhood can cause harm and it can take many years to overcome.
"It is vital, therefore, that we nurture every childhood and why the sorts of projects supported by Children in Need are so important.
"They help the very youngest, most vulnerable members of our society feel safe, secure and loved in these important, formative years, so that they can enjoy their childhoods now, and grow to reach their potential and thrive in the world in later life.
"I hope you enjoy this evening’s show and best of luck to all those taking part in challenges and the incredible fundraising effort."
