Raising children comes with many challenges and even with all the help she has bringing up three of the Queen's great-grandchildren - Kate Middleton feels guilty as a parent.
Speaking on Giovanna Fletcher's Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast, the royal admitted that she 'absolutely' feels guilt as a mother. “Anyone who doesn’t as a mother is actually lying,” she sagely added.
It all might seem pretty exciting to be a royal - appearing on the balcony of Buckingham Palace for big events, sitting in the Royal Box at Wimbledon, doing summer at Balmoral Castle and Christmas at Sandringham House too. However, as evidenced by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's revelations - it may also be seen as a gilded cage.
The restrictions that come with their birthright are many including one thing that parents may take for granted - bringing their kids to school. The Duchess explained the heartbreaking fact that Prince George and Princess Charlotte often ask, "Mummy how could you possibly not be dropping us off?”
Kate Middleton feels guilty, in a way that many mothers do when trying to get the balance right. “It’s a constant challenge," she admitted. "You hear it time after time from mums, who aren’t necessarily working and aren’t pulled in the directions of having to juggle work life and family life.”
She added that she regularly questions her, "decisions and judgements,” an issue which she said starts, “from the moment you have a baby."
Despite her admission, Kate Middleton's parenting of Prince Louis when the adorable young royal acted a little precocious, during the Platinum Jubilee celebrations, was praised as 'great example' by Supernanny Jo Frost.
