The Christmas Gift Prince William Gave Princess Kate That 'Missed the Mark'
Prince William and Princess Kate Celebrate Christmas at Sandringham Amid Gift Memories Prince William and Princess Kate were all smiles this week as they celebrated Christmas at Sandringham with their three children and the Royal Family. The couple, married for 13 years, took time to chat with well-wishers after attending the Christmas Day church service, graciously accepting gifts from the public. While Kate, 42, received an array of beautiful flower bouquets, some gifts from William over the years have been less impressive. One such gift, given during their dating days, was revealed by William on former England striker Peter Crouch's podcast on BBC Radio Five Live. As reported by The Mirror, the prince and Crouch were discussing presents they had given their partners when William admitted to a particularly unusual choice that “didn’t go well.” This anecdote adds a charming touch to the couple’s enduring relationship as they continue to share lighthearted moments with the public. Prince William humorously reflected on a memorable gift he once gave Princess Kate during their early dating days. “I did get my wife a pair of binoculars once—she’s never let me forget that,” he admitted. “That was early on in the courtship. I think that sealed the deal,” he joked, before adding, “It didn’t go well. Honestly, I have no idea why I bought her a pair of binoculars—it seemed like a good idea at the time.” While it’s unclear what William gifted Kate this Christmas, the couple was all smiles as they attended the Christmas Day church service at Sandringham with their children—Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six. Hosted by King Charles and Queen Camilla, the family spent the day at Sandringham but were believed to have returned to their nearby home, Anmer Hall, after the celebrations. As they greeted well-wishers, the children received chocolates and teddy bears, while Princess Charlotte was seen carrying roses gifted by admirers. Despite their festive cheer, the family is not expected to make any further public appearances during the holiday season. #princewilliam #princewilliamnews #princewilliamandkatemiddleton #katemiddleton #katemiddletonhealth #royalfamilynews #royalfamilyupdate
