As the latest news about Kate Middleton reported, they did not have a permanent staff in the house.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Previously, it was believed that the reason was that the mansion did not have enough rooms to accommodate the family and staff. So now that the Welsh are planning to move to the more spacious Fort Lodge, many have assumed that they will acquire employees. However, royal experts are sure that the family is giving up servants for personal reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">According to Katie Nicholl, William and Kate do all the housework themselves and always involve their children in it. They are confident that this will help them raise Louis, Charlotte and George well and \u201ckeep them grounded.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">\u201cThey are much more ordinary people than many people might imagine \u2013 the children even have to do housework in exchange for pocket money.
