Carole Middleton’s family rule with 'no exceptions' that taught Pippa a valuable lesson as a child

Carole Middleton attends day two of Royal Ascot 2024 at Ascot Racecourse on June 19, 2024.

Over the years we’ve heard the Princess of Wales and her siblings speak out about their idyllic childhood in Berkshire and the supportive roles their parents played. In 2020, Kate explained that they came to "every sports match" to cheer them on and took them on family holidays.

Meanwhile, James has credited Carole and Michael with bringing them up "knowing that you can’t take family for granted". Pippa has also discussed their childhoods before and in her first major interview ever in 2016 she disclosed the strict rule that was a valuable lesson.
