Kate Middleton and Prince William are usually seen out and about enjoying a range of activities, but when they’re at home they enjoy a very relatable hobby
Prince William and Kate Middleton cherish their quiet evenings once the kids are tucked in, indulging in a relatable ritual that many couples share.
Despite their image as an active pair, they also savor moments of relaxation. Royal expert Robert Jobson has spilled the beans on the couple’s preference for a “low-key lifestyle” behind closed doors, after chatting with numerous insiders about Kate’s everyday life.
The author behind ‘Catherine, the Princess of Wales: The Biography,’ Jobson, disclosed that the Royal duo eagerly anticipates couch time, binge-watching TV shows like ‘Homeland’ and ‘Game Of Thrones’ after the children’s bedtime.
He noted their fondness for the simple life at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, highlighting their enduring romance. William and Kate make time for each other, often seen cycling together.
However, one pastime William hasn’t quite embraced is Kate’s passion for swimming. On The Good, The Bad and The Rugby podcast, Kate admitted: “Personally, I love swimming. Cold swimming, the colder the better. I absolutely love it. It’s slightly to the point where William is like, ‘you’re crazy’.”
The mum of three shared her thoughts: “It’s dark and it’s raining and I seek out the cold water. I love it, but I wouldn’t want to be put through my paces in a freezing sub-zero ice bath.” Mike Tindall, a close pal of William and Kate, also spilled on the podcast that Kate’s got a fiercely competitive streak. He said, “[When] we all get together, I know she’ll make me do something.”
Yet, there’s one pastime the Prince of Wales enjoys that Kate steers clear of. Recalling a moment from 2015, the princess was quizzed about William’s motorbike habits. Her response? “He’s still riding it. It always fills me with horror when he goes out on it. I’m terrified. Hopefully, I’m going to keep George off it.”
But the thrill-seeking dad-of-three later confessed during an outing to the Isle of Man TT motorcycle races that fatherhood meant dialing back the danger. He admitted, “I’m a dad of three. I have to tone it down. I miss the big trips, for me biking was always about being with everybody else.”
