Kate Middleton, Prince William's wife, revealed a stunning truth about her time in the royal family.
When the Princess of Wales first began attending formal royal events, she expressed her effort to overcome a specific habit.
Kate had to learn to correct this tendency, which had become a running joke within the royal family.
Undoubtedly, the future queen seldom makes a mistake and is always picture-perfect while attending important royal events.
But, like everyone else, she didn't have it all figured out right immediately and needed some practice to get into the groove.
In an interview commemorating the late Queen Elizabeth's 90th birthday, Princess Kate claimed that her in-laws would "tease" her about her habit.
Kate said that it happened even on her very first engagement with the late Queen, saying: "The most memorable engagement for me, I guess, was an away day to Leicester, and I went without William, so I was a little concerned.
"I think there is a real art to walkabouts, everyone teases me in the family that I spend far too long chatting so I think I've still got to learn a little bit more and pick up a few more tips I suppose."
However, she stated that her grandmother-in-law was lovely that day and helped her learn the ropes: "She was really encouraging. She took the effort to ensure that I was pleased and well-cared for on that specific day."
The future Queen went on to heap compliments on the Queen, stating that she was a very kind and lovely person who never let anyone down.
Kate, the mother of three children, is one of the most consistently popular royals, having won the title of most popular royal for the first time in YouGov polls last year and presently receiving 64 percent public favor.
However, old habits die hard, and although claiming that she has attempted to control her instincts, the Princess is still frequently spotted interacting with admirers and guests.
