KEY POINTS

  • Kate Middleton went shopping with her three children in Sainsbury this week
  • Princess Charlotte reportedly tried on a few dresses 
  • Kate Middleton also bought her kids books earlier this month 

Kate Middleton was recently spotted with her three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis in Sainsbury's. The royals braved the outdoors despite the coronavirus outbreak in the United Kingdom.

The founder of Ugly Duckling Creation Kate Carter saw the Duchess of Cambridge with her three kids and said that the royal youngsters were well-behaved the entire time.

“She was with the children, and she looked lovely. She is absolutely beautiful and the children were beautiful. They were so well behaved. I noticed Charlotte first as she had the beautiful green jacket on that she wore at Christmas. Then I saw Kate, who had Louis in her arms and I thought 'Am I the only one seeing this?' I couldn't believe it was happening,” she told Hello! Magazine.

Carter went on to say that Princess Charlotte had her eyes set on a few dresses, and had a bit of walk around while trying them on. The Cambridges were reportedly looking at clothes when the founder and royal fan saw them, and she described Princess Charlotte as “dead cute.”

Weeks ago, Middleton was photographed with her children while shopping for books in London. According to Daily Mail, Prince William’s wife dropped by the UK bookstore Waterstones and she asked staff for children’s books on history and military. For the outing, the future queen donned a light blue sweater and overcoat with black loafers.

Meanwhile, Dr. Rebecca Chicot, the founder of Essential Parent talked about the Duchess of Cambridge’s parenting style. While speaking with The Sun, she described the mom of three as a sensitive and warm mom.

“This is called an authoritative style of parenting that is now encouraged. This is compared to autocratic parenting that was encouraged in some circles in Victorian times [e.g. children should be seen and not heard],” she said.

Chicot also said that Middleton seems to be good at making warm contact when trying to reprimand her kids in public. She usually touches the head in an attempt to connect with them.
