Kate Middleton secretly recorded an episode of Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast, which was her first venture into podcasting, with the blogger and author Giovanna Fletcher. The Duchess of Cambridge used this moment as a medium to talk about her childhood, her kids, and causes for the young people and children.
Prince William's wife praised her "amazing granny" for inspiring her to be the mom that she is today. Her grandmother taught her to have quality time with her kids so that they could make a lot of special memories together.
Kate Middleton revealed that if there was something she wanted to teach her children, it was the quality of relationships. "I had an amazing granny who devoted a lot of time to us, playing with us, doing arts and crafts and going to the greenhouse to do gardening, and cooking with us," she said, per Express.
Now, she is trying to do a lot of experiences with Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, just like what her granny did with them. She also talked about the importance of having a happy home and a safe environment for kids.
However, Kate Middleton didn't reveal which grandmother she was talking about. It might be either Valerie Middleton, a Second World War Bletchley Park codebreaker, or her maternal grandma, Dorothy Harrison.
Kate Middleton and Fletcher met at the launch of the under-fives survey, 5 Big Questions. The future queen consort revealed that it is essential to listen to the families. In the poll, they are asking people about what matters to them when it comes to raising their children today.
Although she knows that it will take time before there will be a generational change, she knows that this is the beginning of starting a conversation to talk about the importance of early childhood development. "It's not just about happy, healthy children. This is for lifelong consequences," she said.
In the official press release, via Harper's Bazaar, Kate Middleton and Fletcher sat down after their joint visit at LEYF Stockwell Gardens Nursery in London, where Kate helped to serve breakfast to children. The two talked about the work that led to the birth of her survey, the importance of the early years in kid's lives, and their shared experiences as mothers of three children.
Fletcher even shared a snap of their joint visit on Istagram. She said her 35th year started with an engagement with Kate Middleton and heard the stories of parents, carers, and staff about the importance of early years and their hopes for future generations.
