Kate Middleton is not just a princess but a devoted wife, a mother of three, a fashion icon, and someone who follows into the footsteps of Lady Diana, the People’s Princess.
Kate has her hands full when it comes to royal engagements and is always willing to be there for the people of Britain through direct meetings and through the many charities and organizations she either runs or is part of.
However, before becoming a princess, Kate was “an ordinary” citizen, as the media loved to describe her. Her parents were simple people who built an empire when Kate was just five years old.
As her parents were preparing for the celebration of Kate’s fifth birthday, they realized that the market lacked elegant tablescapes, as per the Vanity Fair. This was how the idea for a business was born. Thanks to their company, Party Piece, the Middletons made millions and were able to provide great life for their three children, Kate, Pippa, and James, and that included boarding schools.
