In celebrity news, Kate Middleton opens up about the struggles that a parent can face when raising their children. The mom of three expressed her empathy with a group of parents and caregivers during a visit to the charity Family Action on Tuesday. According to People.com, Duchess Kate told the group during the event “It’s so hard. You get a lot of support with the baby as a mother, particularly in the early days, but after the age of one it falls away. After that there isn’t a huge amount…of books to read.” While Kate has her trusty nanny to help her with Prince George, five, Princess Charlotte, three, and celebrity baby, Prince Louis, who is 9 months old, she added that “Everybody experiences the same struggle.”
