Shocking Royal Move: How Prince William and Kate Middleton Changed Their Children’s Futures Forever!
Prince William and Kate Middleton have definitely made their children their number one priority and now Royal expert Jennie Bond, believes one crucial change from the couple has altered the children’s future forever
Prince William and Kate Middleton have chosen “a very different way of bringing up” their children, says a Royal expert, and this different parenting style is a huge deviation from the way royals are typically brought up.
Jennie Bond, former BBC Royal correspondent, told OK! that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have adopted a modern approach to parenting their three children, making them “far more relatable, and far more ‘normal'” compared to other royals.
She stated: “It’s all very well to repeat the royal mantra that ‘duty’ is paramount. But if you ask any ‘ordinary’ folk about their priorities. I have absolutely no doubt that almost 100% would say family. Family is what counts beyond anything.”
Jennie further noted that Kate has taken cues from her own parents, Michael and Carole Middleton, as she adopts a softer approach to raising Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six, ensuring they are “wrapped in a bubble of love”.
She added: “The late Queen had huge responsibilities when she was a young mother becoming monarch, as she did, when she was just 25. Charles and Diana were preoccupied to an extent by the mess their marriage had become, and like most children from a broken family, William and Harry felt the repercussions.”
“Perhaps feeling out of his depth as single dad, Charles retreated too often into his study to deal with his workload when he might have been better off kicking a football around with his boys.”
Elaborating further on how Kate had drawn from her own upbringing to shape her parenting, Jennie added that she was “replicating” her “own happy, stable childhood” by incorporating a gentler approach, which included “never shouting, always listening to their complaints and tantrums, and allowing them to freely express their feelings and anger.”
In addition, Jennie went on to highlight how this bore a contrast to the usual royal approach, as it allowed their children to be “enveloped in a bubble of love” which could yield “significant” benefits in the future by offering the children a much more well-rounded and balanced approach to life, which in turn will allow them to maintain a “long and loving relationship with their parents.”
