Kate and Prince William have ignored a royal tradition and according to an expert this choice will "strengthen their family unit".
The Royal Family is known for having plenty of traditions that govern everything from mealtimes to which parts of the year they spend at different residences. However, the Prince and Princess of Wales have been increasingly taking a more modern approach. In recent years we’ve seen them posing for selfies with fans during engagements and personally signing off messages with their ‘W’ and ‘C’ initials. When it comes to their children they’ve also strayed from a tradition that had been upheld by many royals before them, and the BBC’s former Royal Correspondent, Jennie Bond, has suggested that this could "strengthen" their family.
