Prince William is fortunate to have a true partnership with Kate Middleton. A friend of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge revealed that their relationship works so well, after eight years of marriage and more than a decade of dating, because they balance off each other.
The friend spoke to People to reveal that Prince William and Kate have an old-fashioned marriage. Kate's poise and calm compliment her husband's intensity, thus they make such a strong pair.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge also know that they are still a team even if they have different roles and have three children to raise between them. The source said that Prince William and Kate are a great double act who work side-by-side so well together and this was evident during their royal trip to Pakistan.
According to the report, the Foreign Office that invited the Cambridge couple to the Middle East region last October saw Prince William and Kate as a massive asset to the British royal family. The pair managed to draw a positive perception after their successful overseas tour. Royal observers said that while the whole event was an official work for Prince William and Kate, the two looked like a bright-eyed young couple who were on their first few dates.
Royal experts also said that both Prince William and Kate had a stronger foundation when they were children hence their marriage could thrive despite the pressures and scrutiny of royal life. Kate has her ever-supportive family, with parents Carole and Michael Middleton, while Prince William had a close relationship with his mother, the late Princess Diana.
Celebrity culinary expert Mary Berry, who recently spent many hours with Prince William and Kate for her BBC Christmas special, said that the Cambridges are a pigeon couple. Speaking with Daily Mail, Berry shared that they are naturally affectionate towards each other, which can be easily observed by the way he touches her arm or she smiles back at him.
The special, which aired on Dec. 16, was another positive feature for the future King and Queen of England. It showed the Cambridge royals as down-to-earth, caring, and with their heart in the right place for helping the less fortunate. Kate's appearance on the cooking show was especially warmly received by the viewers, with some calling on the duchess to have her own show with Berry.
