20 of Kate Middleton's Most Relatable Moments
With hair that’s shinier than a freshly polished disco ball, the ability to wear wedges hours after giving birth, and the title of future queen, Kate Middleton isn’t exactly cut from the same cloth as the rest of us -- if we’re cotton, she’s silk. But still, somehow the Duchess of Cambridge manages to be relatable from time to time. In the seven years that she’s been part of the royal family, we’ve seen our fair share of Kate Middleton, so by that measure alone, we've had the opportunity to see her less, uh, royal moments. And while we always appreciate and poised and polished princess, we love it when Kate is just like the rest of us. Or as much as she can be.
For all intents and purposes, Kate Middleton is basically a superwoman. Somehow, she manages to be a mother to three amazing children, while supporting dozens of charities and jetting all over the world -- with nary a hair out of place. So when we get the opportunity to get a sneak peek at the "real" Kate -- the woman who, we assume, takes her bra off and puts on a pair of sweatpants at the end of the day -- we couldn't possibly be more here for it.
Kate will never be as relatable as some celebrities, but she's definitely one of the most down-to-earth members of the royal family. And because of this, we love her even more. From awkward mom moments to nearly falling, here are 20 times Kate Middleton was super relatable.
Mom Mode
Remember that time Princess Charlotte took a spill on the Buckingham Palace balcony? Never mind millions of people were watching, Kate went right into mom mode.
Gossip Girl
Remember that time Kate and Meghan hung out at Wimbledon and gossiped like a couple of school girls? So relatable!
Too Windy
Shortly after William and Kate appeared on the steps of the Lindo Wing with Prince Louis, Kate turned to her husband and said, "It's a bit windy, eh?" AKA: "Let's the the eff back inside."
The Eye Roll
One of our favorite Kate Middleton moments ever? When she rolled her eyes at an obnoxious New Yorker.
Dancing With a Bear
Remember that one time Kate Middleton had to dance with Paddington Bear in front of a crowd? Happens to the best of us.
Drool-Worthy
Who could forget the time Kate Middleton wiped Prince George's drool on her dress when he was a little baby? So cute!
Woo-Hoo!
Even duchesses get excited about ping pong wins. Relatable? We think so.
Bad Hair Days
Like us, Kate sometimes gets caught up in the bad -- or windy -- hair day.
Fist Bump
Sometimes, Kate even fist bumps.
