Kate Middleton recalls what it was like introducing baby George to the world media during a rare interview with 'Happy mum, happy baby' podcast.
The Duchess discussed her '5 Big Questions on the Under Fives' - a quick, online survey which aims to spark a national conversation on the early years that will ultimately help bring about positive, lasting change for generations to come .
She must have been extremely exhausted and physically drained. Yet she did it with grace and beauty, as she does with everything. Love her so much.
Yea, I don’t think she wanted to do that walk out at all but gracefully did it because she understood tradition and what was expected of her.
no, not necessarily. After my births, I was always on a high for the first 24 hours, after that, exhaustion hit. And the post-birth contraction of the womb. First 24 hours, I was always great - and she seems to not have had an epidural, and no c-section, no other interventions...that can cause immediate exhaustion for sure. It was very clever to get the official part over with as long as you're on this oxytocin high, then withdraw and rest, just as she did.
@@brera2434 whatever. let women rest with their family and the baby. people will say anything to justify this charade.
I went back home to my three small children and my husband had to go back to work next day!! I had no one to help at all.
Kate had a team of people serving her all day and night!!!
She doesn't even know what it's like being a mother!!
And she doesn't have any money worries either!!
She went to a baby food and clothes bank, laughing and giggling , completely unaware where she was! I was deeply embarrassed on her behalf.
She didn't bring anything, no donation either!
I wonder if she asked the mothers what designer outfits they buy for their children?
She's that much detached from the reality!!
She is such a lovely woman how anyone can say anything bad about her is just cruel. She is probably the best thing to happen to the monarchy.
I agree.
She shows real empathy with people and is so kind.
She promised a little girl with cancer on the phone that if they actually met, she would wear a pink Princess dress. And when they actually did meet, she had kept her promise.
I thought that was so lovely.
She is always calm and dignified.
The other day, she was put on the spot by the media, and was asked about the new baby 'Lilibet'. Her reply was tactful and sweet.
I agree with you. She and William will be wonderful for the UK 😊x
Agreed. I saw, via a different media source, some of the comments a certain group of fans posted about the Cambridge children. My husband isn’t fussed but even he said it was so awful. Under that last photo of Louis on his birthday one wrote ‘I could just slap him’. That tells you all you need to know about a certain fan base.
She's great for the Royals as she's added common blood to the blend of cousin blood for the past few hundred years. That should improve it no end.
@@bryan7938 as awful as her fan base making racist comments about Harry’s children. Went from calling Archie a monkey to now saying he is disabled, mentally challenged, did not exist, is a plastic doll, was bought in the market(you name it). The worst I have ever heard in my life I heard from her fans about an innocent child. I admired her more than Meghan but seeing how her fans have behaved since Harry got married. It’s just appalling that she tries to act like she is a good person yet enjoys the fact that someone had to be attacked and denigrated by the media and palace courtiers so she can look good for the public and have them fawn over her.
The best thing that happened to the monarchy is Diana.
Diana was able to connect to the nation including the whole world in her own path. Diana didn’t let the Monarch paint the way for her, she painted herself.
Catherine is nice, buts she’s just a typical good housewife who obeys the rules. Nothing compares to Diana.
I applauded kate for walking out with her past pregnancy belly showing mums that it is ok. You dont go back to skinny once the baby is out and you dont have to be ashamed of your body either! So well done!
Did she have any other choice though? I mean, it's there.
Indeed, yet her worshippers attacked and body shamed her sister in law for her post pregnancy body. The contradiction.
@@chinezeolisah1308 So weird. Meghan has her personality flaws but physically she is super stunning and looked beautiful in her off white dress after giving birth.
@@beyondlondon8600 Are you saying Kate had ‘flaws’ after the birth? She just brought life into the world and you are focussing on her figure and how it measures up to other women? Leave them all alone. They have all been through an ordeal and have achieved the most beautiful thing … creating new life. Give all mothers the greatest of respect!
@@susiesmith6785 wtf are you talking about?? I'm referring to the onslaught of paparazzi and press intrusion.
A woman who grew up in a loving, intact, intelligent, fun, close knit family and boy does it show!! I’m so glad she’s working with early childhood the most. There’s nothing more important that being looked after and loved under age 5 when brain pathways are forming. We see clearly what a difference a good family makes
She is doing fantastic work for young children.
Mère porteuse les gamins ne ressemblent ni aux Middleton, ni au Spencer ni aux Mountbatten
I feel like carrying and birthing a child should require the same amount of cheer and applause as Catherine received. It is such a huge feat! 🥰 I would totally be appropriate to have a cheering committee in front of every hospital
That is great! I do still get a little teary when I am at the hospital and hear the newborn bells ringing every time a baby is born
@@sambistabeauty what bells are they?? Lol
@@leabeauty837 what's a veld? Not sure what you mean. But in the hospitals in my area, there are these angel bells that ring, so that everyone knows when a baby is born 😇 it's so sweet and heart melting
@@sambistabeauty ❤
Too many fanatics here can’t post realistic things here
She's perfect for the role she's in. I'm not saying this lightly. I can't imagine what it takes to be smiling like she is after giving birth and wanting to be home. Instead she has to go through all these invasive steps with the media..smiling. I admire her so much. William was born into it but she had to learn and quickly.
Yes, that kind of thing can't be easy at all
I love the way she gently hands him to William. They both have the “it might break” look.
I love them. He acknowledges what is expected of him and yet demands some independence and freedom-‘class act!
Catherine is a very genuine and respectful person, she will definitely make a good queen
Once Wills and Catherine becomes king and queen I may just relocate to the UK. Your country is incredibly lucky to have them 🤗
This woman has the right balance to play role model to a lot of people. Always open-minded and curious and seems to take the title as a mere sideline to presenting herself as a loving human being. A hard act to find nowadays. If we have to pin a "royal" title on anyone, Kate has earned one .
She also happily takes millions in tax dollars to live lavishly.
@@cl5470 I'm sure her family will not starve even if she did not marry a royal
Definitely. Unlike the other whiny, evil one.
@@cl5470 I think you will find that #6 wife is the one taking the dollars. In the UK we use British pounds. And actually the RF cost each taxpayer around two pounds per year, and bring millions per year into the UK economy through visitors, who come from around the world to visit the various stately homes. As a taxpayer, I am more than happy for some of my taxes to support our Constitutional Monarchy, rather than have a corrupted Republic which many seem to turn into, and which change direction frequently. Our Government can be just as bad, but our Sovereign has no political powers, since the country went through a civil war, but we did get rid of Cromwell and reinstated the Monarchy. I am happy with our systems, but not always happy with our Parliamentary behaviour.
Watching this after all the years that have passed is such a joy and I really liked what you said I think that Catherine should get the biggest most beautiful Tiara/Crown From the royal jewelry box. She is an amazing young beautiful woman
Catherine talking about grateful for all the joy and support throughout her pregnancy and wanting to thank the people by showing George, and William talking about how they just wanted to show off their newborn makes them very relatable. Every new parent wants to show the world their new bundle of joy. Well, I guess with the exception of some.
I think we better respect their personal decisions! Living in lime light isn't best for all
Some people made that choice!
No one is entitled to that lol
I wouldn't want to do that and to each their own, they both seem like loving mothers.
I personally think it’s bizarre to get all dolled up and show your baby to world after delivery, it’s literally the last I would want to do because I was so exhausted. I don’t think it’s fair to expect anyone to be subjected to that just because it’s a royal tradition. I am not trying to be a bitch but no William doesn’t get to make that decision because he was not the one spending literally your entire strength for hours to push a baby out of a tiny hole. This should not be glorified in my opinion, good if someone wants to do it (I highly doubt that any woman would) but it should not be expected.
Prince William: "...I know in the postition I am in, what is required of me....". That is man, who clearly understands his role, his privilege and his duty. What a privilege to be born into the royal family, even more so, as an heir. Of course it takes its toll, but in the end it is a huge privilege to represent your country, the tradition and serve your people. Monarchy doesnt exist in the interst of the royals, but in the interst of the people. They are the reason you exist. And William understand, that you have to give something back. He and Catherine just manage their royal public life and their private life just perfectly. They share bits here and there without making a fuss about it. They just live their life happily and without constant drama. Thank God, that he was the first born.
A Prince. But not a very nice brother.
He contradicts himself alot.
@@Mayrows they showed their child, and they were proud of being parents. he said he wanted to show his child to the world, something REAL parents can relate to. henry has said NOTHING about his "children" anyone can relate to. thank you William and Cathrine for sharing your children with us... your child is my child.... cant exactly say that about henry and mm's "children", cause there aint any
@@Mayrows and who is a nice brother? The one who shames the family with a foreign tv show host?
They are the reason we exist? I don’t think so 🤔
@@Mayrows how does he sugar? What about all the lies harry has said & taking private conversations to the American media
Both of them are so grounded and normal. Credit to their parents.
@@kristinh2871 i believe being a credit to one’s parents means they bring honour to their parents, not their parents get credit. Similarly when someone is bad, they bring discredit or dishonour to their family.
As for William the credit goes to Diana , not to Charles
@Tab Ford no.
Diana made a point to raise “her boys” as normally as possible.
Did they want to see a movie? “Great, get in line to buy tickets.”
Did they want mcdonalds? “Great, get in line to order.”
She also took them to visit homeless and the terminally ill.
@Tab Ford my screen name is robert, nitwit.
I’m disagreeing with you.
Watching their behavior is as important as “knowing” them.
@Tab Ford seeing this now.
Wow, you really ARE that much of a nitwit, huh?
What part of “my screen name is robert” don’t you understand? MY NAME IS NOT ROBERT, NITWIT!
Truths you don’t like don’t make me rude, they make you willfully ignorant.
I am cool, calm and collected.
You think me abrasive because I’m saying something you don’t like.
I’m not having a bad day.
I’m saying something you don’t like and you are being a child about it.
You are the one who needs to collect themselves.
I love how he says it’s not somewhere he enjoys being yet he knows it goes along with his duty so he just gets on with it, does it his way and that’s that.
I remember seeing that beautiful moment, they looked genuinely happy and scared. It reminded me of when our first son was born. But sadly, I also remember some mean comments about her body, mostly from other women! She single handedly normalized a postpartum body, and made women around the world feel good and normal. I had a mean comment from my sister in law, after our second child, of how big I still looked, only 5 days after my C-section. It was so hurtful. So thank you Catherine for opening up the conversation.
It’s sad how Princess Diana had to suffer so that her children and their spouses could have a more fulfilled and protected life. But I think I speak for everyone when I say that Kate has not only proven her worth but excelled in everything expected of her. She’s an exemplary woman, lady, wife, mother, and royal. I look forward to the day she becomes Queen Consort.
Sadly we will have to wait until Camilla the Rottweiler stops being Queen Consort when Charles dies. ☠️
@@MAFLORENCIA how disgusting wishing death on people you don’t even know. They have children and family members that love them both deeply. Would you want someone wishing death on your or your loved one because they think your ugly and unloveable based on what the media has propagated?
Yes, it’s my fervent wish that William and Harry and their wives understand that had it not been for Diana‘s sacrifices their lives would’ve been completely different.
@@phoebesmith9089 Oh, I am sure they are very aware of it. Charles was made to marry a woman that didn't fit him as a partner just because her status in society was according to the relevant pedigree - I think the queen rethought quite a few things following the disastrous outcome of this plan. And I am sure at least William is very aware of it. Look how carefully they trained Catherine for her job. How well they accompanied her, step by step. How much freedom they have when it comes to decisions for their children. I am also happy she gave permission to Charles to marry Camilla. That, without anything else, shows that she has learned a lot and taken in to heart.
@@phoebesmith9089 What would Di say about Megan with an “h”?
The Cambridges are such real and non pretentious people. They show gratitude to the support they receive by being generous with their time and apprearing for the public. With them there is no “me,me,me” nor any of those, “we are not following Royal protocol” nonsense. They don’t go telling people to save the planet then going on private jet planes after. Love this couple.
When you are born Royal, there is no need to pretend to be one.😉
Thats because they consider their lives as given in service to their country, very self sacrificial.
Please 🙄
“Non pretentious people” ahahahahahahah 😂 they’re aristocrats, the core of who they are is based on being pretentious and thinking you’re better than everyone because of your “class”
❤
She is amazing!!! I could not imagine having to do this right after I had a baby. I was a crying mess that hadn't showered in 5 days. She looks so beautiful.
Respectfully, I think the analogy is not correct. I only imagine that you did not have all the extra hands and make up artist etc that she had :)
Awww, don’t feel bad! The Royals have a lot of extra help
She has said in interviews that she had a team helping her,hair,makeup etc… We would all look that good postpartum if we had that. Plus knowing you were going home to a ton of support, no financial worries,having everything you need a hundred times over. She had spent nine months so sick I’m sure she was just relieved it was over and wanted to sleep.
Kate is one of the best things to happen to that family. She is going to be fantastic queen
I'll tell you something,Prince William sure touched lucky when he met Kate.She is so beautiful inside and out.
Catherine is such an authentic, kind, warm-hearted, natural person. She truly cares and understands her role and her duty, but she never lost anything of her natural spirit. More so, I think with her natural spirit, her modesty and her close relation with her family, she brought a lot of warmth into the royal family. She was made for William. We will never see or hear her complain, upstage someone or use the privileges, that were given to her, to draw attetion on her. She had years of harrasment through the media, yet we never heard her speaking about it. She took it with grace. I remember her first years a royal, when everyone criticised her for being too stiff and withdrawn and not good enough at giving public speeches. That was really unfair. She is an intoverts, soemone who doesnt like to be the center of attenion. She was a commoner and someone, who wouldnt have chose to become a public figure, if it wasnt for William. She was a normal girl, not an actress and had zero experience with media and publicity. She had to grow into her role, grow confidence and that she did. This is a rare moment, that she shares something so privately and she does it to give something back. If you listen to her speaking her or on other oublic engangements, we will never hear her using "I" or "me" a lot. She tries to keep the attention and focus at the people, as it is not about her in the end. And this we can witness with all working royals. Prince Philip once said, that it is a misconception to think, that the monarchy exists in the interest of the royals, it exists in the interst for the people. The royals serve their nation and represent it internationally. Thats an honour and a huge privilege and it comes with toll. Royality doesnt mean, that everyone serves you, that you can be damanding and entitled and boss people around and only do, what makes you happy. If you act like that, you didnt understand royality and that doesnt go down with the ones, that are the reason you exist, namely the people....
Agree
Somehow Andrew didn’t get that memo.
She is wonderful
All hail the Princess of Wales ❤
Her voice is so soothing
PK is a genuine charming & has grown into a true royal. She & PW make such a lovely couple. May that live continue to grow
"...He'd even practiced with a little doll at home!" 🤣🤣🤣
I just adore these two. They are the only famous people I like or care to know more about. Catherine could not be more suitable for the role she is in. Exceptional woman.
She is just so relaxed when in conversation. Effortless, as if shes known you for years
Like every other working mum out there, she got up and carried on with it. No whining or complaining because she knows most women have it much harder and don’t have the luxury of having staff to help. Kate is such a lady of strength and grace.
Nothing wrong with whining and complaining after giving birth
Yeah cuz she’s a doormat who wanted to marry a prince
@s d yes but after awhile nobody wants to hear the whining and complaining, especially when having children is a choice.
A beautiful Princess. Diana would be proud of her.
I love Kate's voice 😍🇬🇧🇿🇲🇿🇲
What a sweet couple they are! Their children are very lucky.
Simple, authentic couple, we wish them the very best 🥰
Love them , Catherine is just a blessing to the royal family
So many people make comparisons between Kate and Diana..she is her own person...she was and is a breath of fresh air to The Royal Family..
How lucky and grateful we are in Britain to have these two ❤️❤️❤️
They are such a wonderful couple in so many ways, so real so authentic….exact opposite of that couple.
I love how you could see his little fingers
I am sure the Queen is so happy with Kate. If I had son, I would be overjoyed if he married someone like her. She’s very lovely, lets William take the lead, and speaks when she has to. She’s also very graceful. What a charming woman.
She's so lovely ☺️ it's like she was made for this life
Williams loves her. He has so much of his Mom in him.
Pity he cheated on her with her best friend Rose Hanbury.
@@MrShannon1984 pity you choose to believe a rumor started by megain.
@@robertandhollyscorpiofan2697 Haha, that rumour which was actually confirmed was well before Megan came on the scene.
@@MrShannon1984 pity you choose to believe lies.
@@MrShannon1984 he didn't more sugar lies
They are both so down to earth about everything. Great role models
Good Lord, she is GORGEOUS inside and out!! California, USA gives love to Princess Catherine. Congratulations Britain on your most gracious and beautiful future Queen. 💛
Lovely! Two obviously proud parents reacting just as any other new parents.
❤️🇦🇺we love our future Queen Consort. ❤️🇬🇧
She has been so perfect in that role...It's kind of unbelievable. Also nice to see Diana in Will. Because she's very much there in him.
Duchess Catherine is a truly wonderful woman full of compassion and empathy , she is beautiful on the inside and out
She is a beautiful mother, a supportive wife and an examplary role model representing the Monarchy. Wishing for William and Kate lots of happiness.
I love Catherine's voice.
I’ve never seen William’s mannerisms so like Diana’s before. Beautiful video ❤
Such an amazing woman 💗 wonderful couple
I love that he looks and reminds me of his beautiful mama Princesses Diana!!
That was surprisingly relatable lol. All new parents feel their worlds have been turned upside down, and they don't know what to do
Such a beautiful classy couple and wonderful parents. Prince George was seriously the cutest baby ever!! 💙❤💙
Such a lovely couple. William and Kate
I just love them both so much. Sending best wishes from the US 🇺🇸
@Christina Bonvillian You're
Wait where is the moaning about having just given birth, about how it’s your child and the establishment is so mean??? I love Kate - she’s genuinely a lovely person. She appreciated the public wanting to see the baby and didn’t turn it into a victim story. Love her 💕
I absolutely love that William has found a beautiful person inside and out.
I remember the day when he was walking behind his mothers coffin.
I cried so much as a mother you look at your babies.
His mother was a fantastic kind person.
After our queen Kate is the only person that will ever come close.
God bless him and his family.💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐🙏🙏
He had to be “talked into” walking behind Diana’s coffin.
I’ve seen/heard/read, Prince Phillip went to him and said, “i will if you will,” and was offering william comfort as they walked.
I don't know why I just love them so much I get such good chill vibes from princess Catherine I just love her
Gorgeous little family. Love Kate our future queen 👑 🙌💜
Thank you Prince William and Duchess Cathrine for sharing your children with the world. I appreciate seeing your children progress and blossom. many can relate to the worries, concerns and the milestones our children achieve,the dreams and aspirations we have for our kids. May you always be protected and blessed. as the saying goes "your child is my child" ❤️👑🌹
And I remember the queen say " for the new parents, life will never be the same again"🇿🇲🇿🇲
I think it is much easier for them than us. Kate had a night nurse and nanny for George, I admire any young woman who comes home with a new baby (and perhaps has a toddler already at home) and deals with the night feeds, the toddler, the housework, the washing, the cleaning, the shopping, the ironing etc etc all on her own!!! Many go back to work after only six months! I honestly do not know how a lot of these young women today, do it all.
I remember watching this and thinking she looked amazing for someone who just gave birth to a baby! Her hair, her face, she was even walking on hills! So amazing!
She is one lucky lady cause William treats her so well: love, respect, attention, and he had impeccable manners.
Happy mum happy baby is the best podcast!
I could literally write a book WHY these two are SO wonderful in SO many ways. God bless them.
This is adorable footage. I remember the worriez of a newborn too. To have the media watching must have been terrifying xXx
I really smiled the entire way through this.
I liked how they were matching. How cute
I love these 2! Just so naturally down to earth!
What a great moment for all Royal enthusiasts to be able to share and look back upon. Thank you to Prince William and Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge.
What a fantastic couple. I look forward to the day they become our King and Queen consort.
I love this duo!!! ❤
I love this couple. You can tell they have much respect and love for one another.
This was actually really calming to watch.
It s the first time i hear this interview.
I love her openess and honesty.
It s so refreshing❤
She is lovely. ❤️
She looks really pretty here.
Baby george tried to wave inside his blankie 🥺🥺🥺
aww bless them.
Gorgeous couple beautiful family
What a difference, comparing this to the other pair. This was so lovely to see and share. I've not seen one conversation with MM talking about how her pregnancy was, the birth, what it's like to be a mother... weird and raises a lot of questions!!!!!
Give it a rest. Your shallowness & cruelty is the reason they left. Or let me guess, you’re one of the “unnamed palace sources” planted by Kensington.
He looks so much like his mother. Even the way he is speaking and looking back it"s all Diana.
He clearly looks like his father… Harry took after Diana, not the Prince
Qué dulce y auténtica su voz, así como ella es.
Lovely, lovely woman 😊
I can't believe this video got recommended to me just now. Love Giovanna (McFly fan here) and Princess Kate!
I cannot wait until the crown is on his head. Well actually I can because I love the Queen, rather I'm looking forward to his reign.
Yes! I think the world will be greener when he’s king. He has love for everyone and everything and is very independent, and he is raising his children, particularly george as he’s also an heir, exactly the same. Love the queen too, but can’t wait for him to be on the throne. Don’t want Charles to be though 😂
Hopefully it's not abolished before then. Charles isn't too popular 😫
@@positivepessimist6853 we have no idea what’s been going on behind closed doors.
It may well happen that the throne skips to william and catherine.
@@robertandhollyscorpiofan2697 I don't know what happened to my reply to you but it's impossible for the crown to just pass to Charles and no decisions can be made 'behind closed doors.' There is a Succession Act that is LAW so it takes an Act of Parliament which would be openly debated to just skip over an heir. It would cause a huge constitutional crisis and could topple the monarchy. Members of Parliament and the public could very well say that as long as we're debating on skipping the present heir, why don't we just skip ALL of the heirs and abolish the monarchy? It's never happened before and will never happen.
@@positivepessimist6853 is that stick up your axx comfy?
“Topple the monarchy” yeah, so?
If i had money for every comment I’ve read that the monarchy SHOULD BE ABOLISHED, I’d be incredibly wealthy.
“It’s never happened before” again, YEAH, SO?
Just because it’s never happened before doesn’t mean IT CAN’T HAPPEN.
If i had money for every comment I’ve read that the monarchy should skip chuckles and the rottweiler, go to catherine and william, I’d be incredibly wealthy.
I, along with MANY others, think that while no harm should come to william and George, the monarchy should go to. Charlotte.
She seems much more confidence in public than george, and i think she’d make an EXCELLENT queen.
Take that stick out of your axx, face reality.
Or does reality scare you that much?
She is the best thing to happen to the royal family.
Lovely woman inside & out
Both amazing people
And then there are the Harkles !! ??!?!? William and Catherine have no trouble navigating privacy vs what is expected of them. They have a great attitude and they are given respect and know how to act humble and grateful for their role in life.
Beautiful graceful couple
Elle est tellement belle.
William says, "I know that in the position that I am in, what I am required to do. " That in a nutshell is the difference between William and Harry.
Kate’s a national treasure!
Beautiful family ❤
We were all so excited when those doors opened after all the waiting!! ❤❤❤
He always mentions Catherine
I would love to see them being king and queen
Simply great!🍎
My first thought when I watched this at the time was 'Is she really going to walk down THOSE steps in THOSE heels carrying THAT baby?'. I don't think I've ever seen a more graceful woman.
