Kate Middleton has been dubbed as the “Queen of normal.” Ever since she joined the royal family eight years ago, people have noticed that the Duchess of Cambridge has not forgotten her roots.
It is public knowledge that Kate Middleton was born a commoner. In 2011, she married Prince William, and they were given the title Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Despite that, the mother-of-three is still known for doing normal things.
Here are 5 proofs that Kate Middleton can seamlessly switch from royal to normal.
1. Drinks with other moms in a pub.
Kate Middleton can easily request someone to grab her a drink and they would oblige to her demands — but she didn’t want to do that. Instead, the Duchess of Cambridge enjoys a little bonding time with other moms at a pub. To avoid getting unwanted attention, she reportedly sneaks through a secret entrance.
2. Likes bargain.
With a net worth of $10 million, Kate Middleton can afford anything she wants. But Prince William’s wife is quite frugal and has been spotted buying bargains during her trip at the grocery store.
3. Personally fetches her kids from school.
Being royal means you have a lot of people under you who can do things for you, but Kate Middleton doesn’t always grab this opportunity especially when it comes to her children. In 2018, she was spotted stuck in traffic on her way to pick Prince George up from school. The shocking part? She didn’t have a chauffeur with her and was driving her Range Rover herself.
4. Prepares her kids’ lunches and snacks.
When Prince William and Kate Middleton travel with their kids, the latter makes sure that they will not get hungry during the long flights. Wanting the best for her children, the Duchess of Cambridge prepares her kids’ lunches and snacks herself because she knows what they want and what’s good for them.
5. Shops with her children.
“Over the years I've enjoyed seeing pics of Kate going about a routine things like shopping,” a fan wrote on Instagram. “She is a perfect representative of the Crown while on royal duties, and just relatable Kate when not on duties.”
Last month, one woman claimed she saw the Duchess of Cambridge shopping with Prince George and Princess Charlotte for Halloween costumes. “It was lovely to see her just being a normal mom shopping with her kid,” she said. “I love how she just goes about her normal life, she is so down to earth.”
There are definitely more than five proofs. These are just a few points of Kate Middleton being the "Queen of Normal."
