Protecting their three children, George, Charlotte, and Louis, is Prince William and Kate Middleton’s top priority, and some of the sacrifices they are willing to make to do so are seriously heartwarming
When it comes to their three children – Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis – there is very little Prince William and Princess Kate won’t do to protect them and ensure their happiness, even if it means missing out on things themselves.
As members of the Royal Family, you would be forgiven for assuming that with the many resources at their fingertips, parenting is a walk in the park for William and Kate, but their desire to do most of the work themselves means that they have many of the same struggles as other families.
Whilst the future King and Queen have long been known to be hands-on, dedicated parents, a report has claimed just how far the couple are willing to go to make sure they are always putting their kids first, and – just like parents around the world – the important things that they are willing to sacrifice for themselves to do so.
As reported in The Express, Kate and William will try to ensure that at least one of them is at home with their three children at all times – even if this means that as a couple they don’t always get to travel together. Sometimes, when they are undertaking an official royal tour and representing the crown overseas, the couple have to put this rule to the side, because the presence of both of them is required.
However, for the most part, the couple works to make sure that they aren’t leaving their kids behind too often, which may mean they don’t have many opportunities to enjoy a romantic break together. Luckily, the Wales children are said to be really close with their maternal grandparents, Carole and Michael Middleton, who are reported to spend a lot of time with the youngsters, presumably also providing help with childcare at times.
The newspaper reports that it “is evident in some recent trips, that Kate and William like to ensure that at least one of them is home with George, Charlotte and Louis. “Apart from when they’re committed to being on an official Royal Tour, the couple wish for their three children’s lives to remain uninterrupted.” For instance, last year when William was visiting Singapore for the Earthshot Prize, Kate stayed back because it was reported that George had some important school tests around the same time, and she wanted to make sure she was there to support him in that crucial moment.
