Years before her wedding, Kate Middleton learned 'awful burden' of Prince William, claims report

Kate Middleton and Prince William first met at the University of St Andrews in 2001, and they married in April 2011. Their relationship prior to the marriage had a bumpy ride, with the couple splitting for a brief period while at the university. However, the couple feels that the split was necessary, and Kate stated that it made her stronger, according to a report in Mirror.

Over the years, there has been a lot of speculation on what could have been the reason that the couple temporarily split. While there may be many explanations, the one that Judy Wade gave was probably the most plausible of the lot. Judy, a former royal correspondent, said that Kate might have realised the burden of being married to Prince William, which was why she decided to take a break. Judy said that marrying a royal was akin to a life sentence.



During their engagement interview before marriage, William said the brief split gave them some space, which worked out better for the couple. Even Kate said that she felt it was a good decision but admitted that she was not happy when it happened. She further said that their time apart was valuable.

Prince William and Princess Kate have been married for 11 years. The royal couple has three children: Prince George (2013), Princess Charlotte (2015), and Prince Louis (2018). Prince William is next in line of succession for the British throne, while Princess Kate is expected to be the next Queen Consort.
