Well thought-out time management, which also allows enough time for the family, is now more important than ever for the busy couple. They “need to be able to take some time off, especially with their kids being so young,” Bond notes with concern.
Duchess Kate: “You question your own decisions”
Duchess Kate recently confirmed in the “Happy Mum Happy Baby” podcast that the balancing act between being a mom and her duties as a duchess is not always easy. As a moderator Giovanna Fletcher When asked if she was struggling with “mother’s guilt,” Catherine admitted, “Yes, absolutely. I think anyone who says they don’t is lying. Yes, all the time.”
Especially in the early days as a mother, she had a guilty conscience. “I had a lot of doubts because I was away from home so much,” revealed the Duchess.
Her children would still sometimes blame her when she had to leave. “This morning when I was visiting the facility here, I spoke to Charlotte and she said, ‘Mom, how can you not take us to school this morning?'” Kate described a scene with her daughter.
All of this is not always easy. “You’re questioning your own decisions,” Catherine said.
