Kate Middleton and Prince William have been bending the rules quite a bit these days — they gave a rare glimpse into their home — some royal fans loved it, others slammed them for flaunting their massive wealth.
The royal couple has been in lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic at their home in Norfolk, and as a result, they have not been able to pay much attention to the Kensington Palace in recent times.
Reports indicate that the palace has remained empty since the global health crisis started, although it has over twenty rooms with plenty of areas to spare for several people.
The two have decided to give their followers a glimpse into what their lives are like, delivering a candid tour of the palace and going through it in style.
The footage showed that Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, and her husband enjoy antique furniture, fancy paintings, and lamps but also have a liking for modern styles, and the home is decorated very lavishly.
This prompted some mixed responses from the royal fans, with some noting that the home’s high value made it even more of a waste to keep it unoccupied.
This royal supporter praised Kate’s choice of home decor. The person wrote: “Beautiful home, What a wonderful job this beautiful lady does for so many in her charity work. She is so in touch with the people and the work that goes into them. Bravo Duchess Catherine x.”
The pair was laughed at by this commenter: “I kind of expected a better cord control situation by the printer for a palace. ?”
Kate and William also received this message: “My God, that is having a lot of money and a big home and meanwhile, I need a computer for my son so he can do his homework ??.”
However, in the end, it is not like members of the royal family would give up a luxurious lifestyle for any reason.
Kate and William, Duke of Cambridge, do not seem to be missing any of their luxuries at their current home either, and the two have been able to deal with the pandemic more or less without any issues.
Of course, the situation is still ongoing, and it will take a while for the dust to settle.
It is possible that the royal family might decide to move somewhere else to deal with the effects of isolation at some point, especially if the quarantine goes on for a longer time.
