Royal courtiers are absolutely going off in Yes Ma’am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants, a new book from Tom Quinn, and there are a lot of revelations about Kate Middleton and Prince William's relationship. First of all, apparently William is so scheduled that he literally has his suits pressed and laid out for him, and his bath is run "at precisely the same time each day."
Yes Ma'am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants
One former staff member claims (in an excerpt from The Times) that William's prone to tantrums if things don't go according to plan, adding that Kate treats her husband like a child: “I don’t know where William would be without Kate — she hasn’t had everything done for her throughout her life, so she calms him down when he gets a bit fractious. She said he sometimes has to be treated as her fourth child.”
Quinn also reports that Kate "enjoys ribbing" William about his family, and teases him about Queen Camilla being descended from Edward VII’s "favorite mistress." William dishes it back, though, and one former advisor says “Before Kate realized that as a senior royal you have to dress carefully, having taken advice, she once bought an outfit that William considered inappropriate. He told Kate she looked as if she’d just run through a charity shop covered in superglue. Everyone thought this was very funny, including, to her credit, Kate."
Oh, and another source notes that “Kate had to explain many of the things that parents outside the royal family do with their children as a matter of course — she had to show him how to give the children a piggyback, for example. William said very quietly, ‘My father never gave me a piggyback.’”
Honestly this is all a lot, and slightly:(
