So all green: the Duchess of Cambridge on St. Day. Patrick. Moments when the Duchess of Cambridge was clearly not ready for the camera flash Their home is open to everyone
We are used to the fact that members of the royal family always look perfect in public. Take, for example, the Duchess of Cambridge, who always appears in public in elegant outfits appropriate for the place and event, and with a dazzling smile!
But Kate is a living person like us. She has her problems too Bad mood or even simple fatigue. Unfortunately, she has to hide it, as paparazzi follow her every move.
Today we have made a selection of priceless shots of the beautiful duchess. Kate, we love you anyway!
“When will we go home?”
"It's going to be a very long day."
"We spend too much time together."
“What’s for dinner today?”
“Oh, someone’s going to get it now...”
“William, are we sure we need a third?”
“I wonder what’s on TV now?”
“What are you saying?”
“It's time to relax. I can afford it!"
“And what did she put on herself?”
"We're losing, Wil, do something!"
Oh that look...
“Where-where will I sit?”
“Not this!”
“One more sip and you’ll carry me home, William.”
Even this sweet duchess’s facial expressions are impeccable! We think the queen is infinitely pleased with her grandson's choice.
She was born on January 9, 1982 in the city of Reading in the English county of Berkshire in the family of Michael Francis Middleton and Carol Elizabeth, née Goldsmith. Carol was a flight attendant, Michael was an air traffic controller (he later became a British Airways pilot).
In 1987, the Middletons founded the parcel trading company Party Pieces, which successfully developed in the British market and made them millionaires. The company provides postal delivery of goods for various holidays. The family settled in their own house in the village of Bucklebury in Berkshire.
Kate graduated from St. Andrews School in the village of Panbourne in Berkshire. Then the future princess moved to Marlborough College, a private educational institution in Wiltshire. At college, Kate played tennis, hockey and netball, and was involved in athletics.
After graduating from college in 2000, Kate did not go to university, taking a year off from studying. During this time, she visited two countries - Italy, where she studied at the British Institute of Florence, and Chile, where she participated in the program charitable organization Raleigh International. In addition, Kate managed to take a short cruise along the Solent. In 2001, she entered the University of St. Andrews in the Scottish region of Fife. There she met Prince William, the eldest son of Charles, Prince of Wales.
Kate graduated from the university without failing grades, receiving a bachelor's degree with second-class honors in 2005, majoring in art history. After that, she began working for the company Party Pieces, which was founded by her parents.
In 2005, all the British and world tabloids wrote about Kate as new friend Prince William. Their joint photo, made during one of the excursions, appeared on the front pages of the world's leading publications. Subsequently, Middleton turned to a lawyer due to the constant interference in her personal life and harassment of journalists.
At the university, young people studied art history together, but later Prince William changed his specialization to geography. According to some reports, he wanted to drop out of the first year, but Kate convinced him to continue his studies. According to another version, William remained at the university thanks to his father’s persuasion.
Middleton began to appear frequently at events involving the royal family. On November 16, 2010, Clarence House announced Prince William's engagement to Kate Middleton.
On April 29, 2011, Kate Middleton married Prince William of Wales. The wedding took place at Westminster Abbey in London. Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain granted the lovers the title of Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Kate Middleton ordered two for her wedding wedding dresses(one -
for the wedding ceremony, the second - for the wedding dinner). The first, which became the main intrigue of the celebration, amazed all fashion experts. The bride chose a dress from the British brand Alexander McQueen. The second dress was created by the famous British fashion designer and stylist Bruce Oldfield, who previously took part in the design of Princess Diana's wardrobe.
On May 2, 2015, the Duchess of Cambridge gave birth to a daughter. The girl was named Charlotte Elizabeth Diana.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge may be members of the royal family, but for their children, they are just dad and mom. Therefore, Prince George and Princess Charlotte are being raised as ordinary children. The twenty-first century dictates its terms and William and Kate are trying to be modern parents. Here are 12 points they follow as they try to raise George and Charlotte with the times.
“Yes” to gadgets
No matter how this was greeted by the public, who condemn such early contact of children with technology, even The Royal Family uses gadgets as a distraction.
Prince William admitted in one of his interviews that their children watch a lot of children's entertainment and educational programs. Prince George used to be crazy about Peppa Pig, but now he's switched to Fireman Sam.
Moreover, like all children, the prince and princess expect that mom and dad will also be interested in the ups and downs of cartoon characters, and are offended if dad doesn’t know who Chloe Peppa Pig is.
Joint work
Duchess Catherine has a BA in Art History, so it's no surprise that she wants to pass on her love of art to her children. Kate works a lot with children and there are even rumors that she sews clothes for little Charlotte herself.
Prince George and Princess Charlotte, under the guidance of their mother, made gifts for their great-grandmother the Queen on her 91st birthday.
Sometimes these activities end up with rubbish scattered everywhere and glue and paint splattered, but Kate and William don't seem to mind.
Katherine often cooks goodies with her children. So, at a meeting at a school in Luton, students gave her a gift chocolate cake. Kate liked the gift and commented:
“When I try to make this at home with George, chocolate and treacle end up everywhere but in the cake.”
Culture for children
William and Kate and their children often go to the Natural History Museum in London and try to visit all the new exhibitions. Prince George especially likes sculptures.
Yes, future king He has been visiting museums since he was a child, but don’t worry – he’s just like a child! He is more interested in the pigeons in the square in front of the museum than in any of the exhibits inside.
Their home is open to everyone
The Duke and Duchess are always friendly to fans, they live in central London, not in the countryside, their children go to regular school and kindergarten.
To become more open to people themselves and to convey the idea of this openness to society, William, Kate and Harry are the creators and leaders of the mental health program.
Prince William commented on the launch of this program:
“Catherine and I want our children to grow up to be as open and friendly as possible, so that they can openly talk about their feelings and experiences and not think that it is shameful.”
Okay, Google!
Like any young mother, Katherine knew nothing about motherhood. And like all modern young mothers, she certainly turned to the World Wide Web to find out answers to questions that arose.
“Why doesn’t the child sleep at night?”
“How to warm up a bottle?”
All these questions worried the young mother just like millions of women who became mothers, each at one time.
Duchess Kate admitted that she communicated on the forum with other mothers using a pseudonym.
Not a closed school
Everyone, absolutely all the heirs to the throne went to closed schools, boarding houses for boys or girls with accommodation. But not Prince George or Princess Charlotte!
