Fans who had gathered outside the Royal Albert Hall in central London screamed as the royal couple walked side-by-side into the ceremony on Sunday evening after making the short journey from Kensington Palace.
They were greeted at the entrance by the Royal Albert Hall’s chief executive Craig Hassall before making their way to their seats.
They were the last to take their seats and were introduced to the audience by the announcer.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were making a return to the film awards, having attended previous ceremonies together.
The duke has been president of the academy since February 2010.
