Despite the pomp and ceremony surrounding their union, the marriage of Prince William and Princess Kate Middleton is, in essence, a relationship like any other.
Throughout their 13 years together, they have experienced the joy of love, the strength of mutual respect, and have also faced the inevitable challenges that arise in any relationship.
The British press, eager for details about royal life, has speculated about possible conflicts between the couple, but it is important to remember that every relationship, even royal ones, has its ups and downs.
What matters is the ability to overcome difficulties and strengthen the bond, something William and Kate have more than proven.
What William and Kate’s fights are like
Despite the secrecy surrounding the British royal family, some disputes between its members have come to light. The couple formed by William and Kate, one of the most beloved, is no stranger to conflicts.
According to the British press, the couple has “terrible fights,” but also a particular way of resolving them.
Sources at Buckingham Palace reveal that while the Prince and Princess of Wales argue intensely, their method of calming the waters is peculiar: they throw cushions at each other.
Royal expert Tom Quinn, citing private conversations with people close to the couple, claims that, despite their public image, William and Kate are not immune to tensions.
The stress of their public life and the constant presence of palace attendants would be factors in their arguments.
However, the couple seems to have adopted Queen Elizabeth II’s mantra: “never complain, never explain.” This philosophy is reflected in their way of handling conflicts, always with restraint and avoiding public exposure.
Although William and Kate’s fights may seem like a royal secret, the way they resolve them, with games of cushions, reflects a more human and lighthearted side of royalty.
Harry and Meghan’s fights: a contrast with the Prince and Princess of Wales
The quarrels between Harry and Meghan, according to sources close to the royal family, are intense and passionate.
The two are said to be fully involved in their fights, in contrast to the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Royal expert Quinn has claimed that William and Kate, because of their greater privacy, face less public scrutiny than the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
This makes it easier for them to resolve conflicts more discreetly. Quinn stresses that the royal couple, as future kings, are less scrutinized.
