Kate Middleton and Prince William have been isolating in their country home, but they
haven’t stopped working.
So much so, that Kate reportedly feels "exhausted and trapped" due to her increased workload
during this time.
What’s up?
It’s Emile Ennis Jr. here with Clevver News and apparently the Kensington Royals are working
harder than ever during this global crisis both behind-the-scenes and in the public eye.
But like many other people who are working overtime during this tough time, Kate is apparently
feeling exhausted from the extra workload.
Kate has been seen on their Kensington Royal social media accounts, on a variety of Zoom
calls, and on television doing interviews to promote their new initiatives to get people
together virtually during this time.
She hasn’t stopped thanking the healthcare workers for their tireless efforts during
this time.
And Kate also recently went on the British talk show, This Morning, and talked about
their Hold Still initiative.
She also has made it her priority to visit with midwives and new moms via Zoom to stress
the importance of their role during this crisis.
And she and Prince William have also been doing
their best to connect with their community together to thank healthcare workers via Zoom.
They even hosted a bingo game for staff at a nursing home in Cardiff.
And for Veteran’s Day they similarly hopped on Zoom to chat with some Veteran’s and
pay tribute.
So Kate’s definitely been keeping up with all her royal duties, all while taking care
of their three children and homeschooling them.
A source told Us Weekly that quote, “Kate is mainly in charge of the homeschooling and
playtimes, but William is also very involved too.
He teaches them lessons and organizes games.”
And the source also added that quote, “Kate counts her blessings that the kids get on
so well.
George has been helping Charlotte with her gymnastics and they’ll spend hours practicing
cartwheels, headstands, and other moves together.
Louis tries to join in too!”
And now another alleged source is spilling all the royal tea about how Kate is really
doing behind the scenes during this tough time.
The source told Tatler that quote, “Of course she’s smiling and dressing appropriately
but she doesn’t want this.
She feels exhausted and trapped.
She’s working as hard as a top CEO, who has to be wheeled out all the time, without
the benefits of boundaries and plenty of holidays.”
But according to this source, Kate is perfect for this role and she’s pushing through
with one goal in mind.
The source said quote, “She keeps her head down because the prize of being queen is so
great.
She models herself on the Queen and now speaks like the Queen."
And just in case you were a little confused about the royal hierarchy, I’ve got you.
When William eventually takes over the throne, which won't be for some time as the Queen
is still going strong and Prince Charles is next in line, Kate will get yet another new
title.
But despite what that source said, it won't exactly be Queen.
Instead, it will be Queen Consort.
Though she will likely be known widely as Queen, her official title will be Queen consort.
This is because she wasn't born into the family but rather, she married into it.
Only women born into the royal family, such as Kate's daughter Charlotte, can ever be
a Queen.
Either way, it seems like Kate is putting the work in now for when she eventually holds
the Queen consort title.
And thankfully, this global crisis hasn’t only been stressful for William and Kate.
The Duke of Cambridge has revealed the thing that he and Kate have found comfort in during
the lockdown.
He said quote, “Catherine and I have both found great comfort in the wonderful acts
of kindness we have seen right across the nation.”
And he emphasized the importance of checking in on one another during this time saying
quote, “Now more than ever, it is important that we talk to one another about issues that
we're struggling with.
And it is OK to not feel OK.”
And so hopefully William and Kate are not only sending their support to everyone else,
but taking the time they need for themselves during this tough time.
But I want to know what you guys think about all of this.
