Kensington Palace is getting reflective about the year almost passed on the official Instagram account.

Yep, it's about that time of year when everyone starts getting a little nostalgic for the year that's nearly up. Apparently, Kensington Place is no different when it comes to this, as the official Instagram account has just uploaded a compilation video of the royal's best bits! It seems a bit bizarre, but there is indeed a video entitled 2018: Our Favourite Moments uploaded to Instagram Stories and saved on IGTV. The three-minute video features some photos we've never seen before of the royals and is captioned:

"Here are some of our favourite moments from 2018 — thank you to everyone who made this year so special. See you in 2019!"

It highlights events such as the birth of William and Kate's third child Louis back in April, his christening in July and of course, Harry and Meghan's wedding in May. The video also shows snaps of Kate back from her maternity leave in September and the Duchess of Cambridge becoming patron of Evelina Children's Hospital earlier this month. Perhaps one of the most touching photos included is a note William penned for a remembrance tree in Manchester which reads:

"To all of those affected, you will never be forgotten. And to the people of Manchester, my admiration for your display of strength, decency and community in the time of this unparalleled tragedy."

  It certainly has been one hell of a year for the royals and with the birth of Harry and Meghan's first child early next year, we're guessing 2019 won't be much quieter!
