Kate Middleton is one of the most popular members of the Royal family. The Duchess of Cambridge has earned a lot of praise and has built a close relationship with the public ever since she and Prince William tied the knot in 2011.
The couple had always been a strong asset to the royal family, thanks to their successful advocacies such as better mental health care and a wider focus on children's development. Royal commentator Omid Scobie said that Prince William and Kate Middleton have mastered the strategy of choosing causes to advocate for.
"I think William and Kate play it safe,” he said. ”That’s where it goes right for them. Kate has never really taken on a controversial topic. Her focus on the early years, childhood development, has been a really clever choice although we may, as journalists, find it boring at times."
Omid Scobie then said that Kate Middleton knows how to do her royal duties while avoiding criticism. She chooses advocacies that are close to everybody’s heart, and not the ones that will raise eyebrows.
"It has positioned her very favorably in the eyes of the public and she’s not tried to do anything too differently,” the royal commentator continued. ”For them, it works, for Harry and Meghan, they didn’t want to play it that way because it can be a little bit boring."
It’s no secret that Kate Middleton has always been passionate about children, not only because she is a mother, but she genuinely wants nothing but the best for the young ones. That being said, experts believe that the wife of Prince William could become the world’s most influential advocate on emotional subject.
“The Duchess has worked quietly away in the background for years. And now she knows that people want to hear from her,” the source said. “It's much easier to speak out when you know what you're talking about and passionate about your subject. She has become an expert in early years learning, she understands the science and is respected in the sector because she has spent the past eight years working it out. But she also wants to find answers. This is about evidence-based research."
Prince William and Kate Middleton are given more work after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decided to step down as senior royals. But before the shocking announcement, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were already expected to be facing more workload after Prince Andrew’s resignation.
