Kate Middleton and Prince William’s romantic tale has often been described as nothing short of a fairytale, captivating the world with their enduring affection since their university days.

Their public appearances are marked by exchanged glances and subtle signs of intimacy, proving their connection is as robust now as when they first fell in love back at St Andrews in 2001.

According to a sweet revelation previously reported, the Prince of Wales makes sure that romance stays in the air by giving his Duchess a special nightly gesture, following the bedtime stories for their children.

While they may hold regal titles, Kate and Will prove to be endearingly normal in their downtime, enjoying a drink just like any other couple, whether it’s an upscale cocktail, a classic gin and tonic, or a simple beer.

Prince William reportedly takes on the role of bartender, preparing a nightly drink for Kate after their kids George, Charlotte, and Louis are settled in bed, reports Edinburgh Live. Contrary to earlier thoughts that the Princess relished a good pint of Guinness, whispers within palace walls hint at something completely different now.

An insider from Kensington Palace revealed: “William will bring Kate a gin and tonic. They look after each other, but in different ways.”

Destiny brought them together at St Andrews University, where Kate pursued Art History and William studied Geography. After a rollercoaster of dating phases, they made their vows at the historic Westminster Abbey in 2011.

The Prince and Princess are renowned for their mutual support in personal interests, whether it’s teaming up on shared passions such as mental health or letting one another lead the way in advocating their individual beliefs.

Speaking to OK!, former BBC Royal correspondent Jennie Bond remarked: “Catherine has demonstrated in recent months and even years that she is the real deal. I think her strength is drawn from the fact that she was given such a long apprenticeship.”

“Those nine or 10 years when she was allowed to see a little bit of what life will be like in the royal court were completely invaluable,” Bond further commented.

Bond also noted: “I suppose she seemed a little bit shy in the beginning. But I think if you compare that relationship to Charles and Diana, it strikes me that William deserves a great deal of credit because he has never appeared jealous of the attention that his wife gets.”

“He has gently introduced her into what life would be like and has let her shine and constantly demonstrates that he’s hugely proud of her.”

“When she campaigns on certain issues, like mental health or early years learning, he allows her centre stage without quibble. They are an incredibly strong couple which gives her a great deal of confidence.”
