William and Kate’s surprising activity after ‘kiddies go to bed’ – and we can all relate

Prince William and Kate, the Princess of Wales are often busy with royal engagements up and down the country - but when they are at home, they prefer their 'low-key lifestyle'

Prince William and Kate Middleton wait until their three children have gone to bed to enjoy one special activity – and everyone can relate.

Although the duo seem like an extremely active couple, they also enjoy their downtime. According to royal expert Robert Jobson, the husband and wife are happy with their “low-key lifestyle” at home. He shared his insight into what the couple are like at home after he interviewed a series of royal insiders about Kate’s life.

The author of ‘Catherine, the Princess of Wales: The Biography’, revealed that the pair look forward to sitting down on the sofa and particularly enjoy watching TV series. Jobson shared: ‘With William, Catherine also enjoys playing competitive games of tennis or lolling on the sofa and watching box sets — including Homeland and Game Of Thrones — when ‘the kiddies are in bed’.

He wrote for MailOnline: ‘They like their low-key lifestyle at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, and remain very much in love.’ William and Kate enjoy spending quality time together and can often be found bike riding. But one activity that William can’t seem to get behind is Kate’s love for swimming. Talking to The Good, The Bad and The Rugby podcast, Kate previously said: “Personally, I love swimming. Cold swimming, the colder the better. I absolutely love it. It’s slightly to the point where William is like, ‘you’re crazy’.”

The mum of three continued: “It’s dark and it’s raining and I seek out the cold water. I love it, but I wouldn’t want to be put through my paces in a freezing sub-zero ice bath.” Mike Tindall, who is a close friend of William and Kate, also told the podcast that Kate is extremely competitive. “[ When ] we all get together, I know she’ll make me do something,” he said.

However, the Prince of Wales also has a hobby that Kate refuses to take part in. Back in 2015, the princess was asked whether William still gets on his motorbike. She said: “He’s still riding it. It always fills me with horror when he goes out on it. I’m terrified. Hopefully, I’m going to keep George off it.”

But the dad-of-three later revealed during a trip to Isle of Man TT motorcycle races, that he had to prioritise his children above the activity. He said: “I’m a dad of three. I have to tone it down. I miss the big trips, for me biking was always about being with everybody else.”

Catherine, The Princess Of Wales, by Robert Jobson, is set to be published by John Blake on August 1.
