Kate Middleton has always been involved in the medical sector. She regularly spends time in hospitals with various patients, offering comfort and support.
She recently gave two parents a wonderful surprise when she sent them a video call to congratulate them on the birth of their new son. Kate said,
“This is definitely a first. Well, firstly, huge congratulations. He's so sweet congratulations."
As she herself quarantines, the Duchess and Prince William are teaching their children how to be well mannered and respectful.
That involves ensuring that the two junior Royals take on different chores, including making their own beds and not asking their “housekeeper” to help them out.
Kate spends her time with her children who have different hobbies, keeping them busy and occupied while they are stuck inside.
Charlotte, she revealed, does get into her fair share of trouble with Prince Louis, sharing the time the pair collaborated to find a secret stash of sweets.
