The Princess of Wales has a full-time job. Kate Middleton‘s itinerary is more demanding than a Wimbledon Center Court crowd on its final day, with every event from high-profile royal duties to representing the Crown on a global scale.
And yet, the Princess seems to have made one big “sacrifice” that the media can’t stop raving about, for her three kids; Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. And what is that, you may ask? She never misses any of her kids’ sporting events/matches.
Real Housewives of London star Panthea Parker, who often runs into Kate Middleton because of the schools their kids attend, only recently revealed this touching detail. Parker says she regularly spots the Princess at games, not from the comfort of a chauffeur-driven car, but directly from the bleachers. Parker’s son goes to the same Berkshire school as the youngest of the royals, Lambrook School.
Parker told Hello! Magazine, “[She is] so lovely, so classy,” and Kate’s commitment is incredible for her position. Parker commented, “[She] never misses any of her children’s matches,” referring to the royal mom as “really amazing.”
Kate’s passion stems from her younger years and surpasses a media-focused image.
She expressed herself openly about her formative years on the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast back in 2020, crediting her parenting style to both of her parents. “I had a very happy childhood. (…) I’m very lucky (…) my parents were hugely dedicated they came to every sports match (…) they’d be the ones on the side-line shouting,” she recalled. She now re-creates that same energy for her own children!

Kate Middleton focuses on remaining grounded as royal observers wager about Prince George’s likely acceptance to Eton College and Princess Charlotte’s future decision to follow in her mom’s footsteps and enroll in Marlborough College.
As any proud mom or dad would do, Kate Middleton has been caught cheering from the audience instead of formally sending her kids off, proof that even future rulers want the backing of the onlookers.
It is a welcome reminder that, even with her royal titles and beautiful tiaras, Kate is most importantly a parent.
