The Prince and Princess of Wales are raising their children in a very different way to royal parents before them and Kate's family dynamic has inspired their hands-on approach. She's spoken about her "happy childhood" and how Carole and Michael Middleton "sacrificed" a lot to be there at every sports match cheering her on.
They're also heavily involved in Prince George, Charlotte and Louis's lives and Carole has worked to be this kind of granny. In 2021 she explained, "I have tried hard to be a listening grandmother and mother-in-law. That is why we are all still close, because our relationship has evolved as my children have had children."
