It might surprise royal fans to know that the Princess of Wales loves to personally cook for her husband Prince William and three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.
Though William and his brother Prince Harry were treated to professionally-cooked meals courtesy of private chef Darren McGrady growing up, the future king has acknowledged his wife’s cooking skills in comparison to his own, revealing that she is “very good” in the kitchen.
Not only does Kate, 42, get stuck into the cooking, but she has also been known to shop for her own ingredients. The Princess has been spotted on a number of occasions at her local supermarket – the most unlikely of settings for the future monarch’s wife to spend her time.
Join HELLO! in remembering all of Kate’s supermarket sightings – and take a look at what will most likely be on her shopping list…
Waitrose

The royal was said to have loaded all of the shopping into her Audi A3 herself with her protection officer in close range.

Sainsbury’s
