When Tom Bradby asked Kate about meeting the royals, she said she was a bit nervous to meet William’s dad, now King Charles, but he was really welcoming.
She replied: “I was quite nervous about meeting William’s father, but he was very, very welcoming, very friendly, it couldn’t have gone easier really for me.”
Tom also asked if she was nervous to meet the Queen.
“I first met her at Peter and Autumn’s wedding and again it was amongst a lot of other guests and she was very friendly,” Kate said, with William adding: “She was very welcoming. She knew it was a big day and everything was going on with Peter and Autumn. She wanted to meet Kate for a while, so it was very nice for her to come over and say hello.”
“Mike and Carole have been really sort of loving and caring and really fun,” William shared. “They have been really welcoming towards me, so I’ve felt really a part of the family.”
Talking about his proposal, Prince William revealed it happened in Kenya three weeks before: “We had a little private time away together with some friends and I just decided that it was the right time really,” he said.
“We had been talking about marriage for a while so it wasn’t a massively big surprise. I took her up somewhere nice in Kenya and I proposed.”
He also mentioned: “I’d been planning it for a while but as any guy out there will know it takes a certain amount of motivation to get yourself going.
“I was planning it and then it just felt really right out in Africa. It was beautiful at the time. I had done a little bit of planning to show my romantic side.”
