Kate Middleton and Prince William are in quarantine like so many others around the world amid the coronavirus pandemic, having Zoom meetings and homeschooling their three young children Prince George, 6; Princess Charlotte, 4; and Prince George, 1. Us Weekly got a little intel on how the two royals are spending their days with their kids when school is done. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are reportedly quarantining with their kids in their Norfolk country home, Anmer Hall.
“Kate bakes and decorates cakes with the kids [on] the weekend to keep them entertained,” a source told Us. “The kitchen is always a complete mess by the end of it, but it’s all part of the fun—that’s how Kate sees it. They also enjoy gardening together and planting seeds.”
“Kate counts her blessings that the kids get on so well,” the source continued. “George has been helping Charlotte with her gymnastics and they’ll spend hours practicing cartwheels, headstands and other moves together. Louis tries to join in too!”
A second source said that both Kate and William are helping home-school their children while many schools are closed in the UK. “Kate is mainly in charge of the home-schooling and playtimes, but William is also very involved too,” the source said. “He teaches them lessons and organizes games.”
Kate and William shared a glimpse of their work day now in their Instagram yesterday. The two posted a video of their Zoom engagement with students at Casterton Primary Academy.
“In conversation with…Casterton Primary Academy,” their Kensington Palace staff captioned the Instagram post. “Teachers across the UK are dedicating their time to keeping schools open for the children of key workers and vulnerable children. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge called teachers and school staff at Casterton Primary Academy to thank them for their hard work and dedication – and to wish the children a very Happy Easter 🐣 @_place2be.”
