The Princess of Wales always appears to be the picture of poised perfection during public engagements. Ever since she was welcomed into the royal family when she got engaged to Prince William in 2010, she has rarely put a foot wrong – so it's something of a relief to learn that she is just like us in some ways.
In a previous interview with The Times, podcaster Giovanna Fletcher, who had Princess Kate as a guest on her parenting podcast in 2020, gave a rare insight into what Princess Kate is really like, and her anecdote proves that the future Queen is more like us than we originally thought.
"She told me that she was notoriously bad at keeping an eye on her phone," Giovanna wrote. "She always loses her phone. All of her Christmas presents that year were related to her keeping track of her phone… It was all about her not losing her phone."
This could be more of an issue than ever due to the Wales family's new home, Forest Lodge, which is bigger than their previous home, Adelaide Cottage - giving the royal more nooks and crannies to misplace her mobile.
Forest Lodge boasts eight bedrooms, while Adelaide Cottage had four – quite the upgrade!
