The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge reveal the ‘mean’ secret they’ve kept from their kids
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have revealed the “mean” secret they’ve kept from their children during the coronavirus lockdown.
- The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have opened up about how they're living family life in light of the coronavirus lockdown.
- During a special appearance on BBC Breakfast, the royal couple confessed the cheeky secret they've been keeping from their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
- This royal news comes after Prince Harry revealed how he's been bonding with his little son, Archie, throughout the global pandemic.
The royal pair made an appearance on BBC Breakfast this morning as part of their new Every Mind Matters campaign.
During the chat, Prince William and Duchess Catherine opened up about how their little ones are getting on with lockdown life.
The Cambridges are currently residing in their Norfolk home, Amner Hall, where the Duchess is home schooling the eldest of her brood, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, with their school, Thomas’s Battersea, having closed its doors.
It seems that education hasn’t halted for the little ones over the Easter holidays though, with Catherine admitting she’s not told them that the school break arrived last week.
“Don't tell the children, we've actually kept it going through the holidays. I feel very mean,” she laughed.
Oh, Kate!
