<p id=”par-1_37″>Prince William and <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/kate-middleton/?swcfpc=1″>Kate Middleton</a> have been together since the early days of <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kate-middleton-prince-william-relationship-changed-graduated-college-no-longer-protective-bubble.html/”>University of St. Andrews</a>. It’s the school where the prince and princess met, but they actually started out as friends before becoming a couple.</p>
<p id=”par-2_33″>So many years later, the two are happily married with three children. And William once revealed the way he tried to win Kate over — though it didn’t exactly go as he’d planned.</p>

<p id=”par-3_78″>William and Kate were quite young when they became friends, but things moved pretty quickly for the two. About halfway through their time at school, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/what-prince-william-said-the-moment-he-found-out-kate-middleton-was-single-in-college.html/”>the two moved in together</a> (along with some other friends), which is where their relationship really had a chance to develop. As Kate and William grew closer, he wanted to nice things for her, so he tried his hand at cooking. Unfortunately, though wanting to impress her, it didn’t always end too well.</p>
<p id=”par-4_90″>“When I was trying to impress Kate, I was trying to cook these amazing fancy dinners, and what would happen was I would burn something, something would overspill, something would catch on fire and she would be sitting in the background just trying to help, and basically taking control of the whole situation, so I was quite glad she was there at the time,” William said of his cooking skills during the couple’s 2010 engagement interview. Of course, Kate was understanding, but the two of them laugh about it today.</p>
<p id=”par-5_51″>William also joked that he thought his cooking skills were improving at the time, but Kate thought his skills were “getting a lot worse.” Today, William and Kate do enjoy takeout every once in a while, but they have said in the past that they enjoy making dinner with their kids.</p>

<p id=”par-6_39″>William and Kate have come a long way since their university days. The Prince and Princess of Wales share three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, and they love spending time with their kids in the kitchen.</p>
<p id=”par-7_46″>Kate once revealed that the family enjoys making anything from salad to pizza, and that cooking dinner together is a great way for them all to bond. Now that the kids are getting older, they’re likely finding out more about what they like and don’t like.</p>
<p id=”par-8_57″>William and Kate have worked hard to give their kids the most normal lives possible. Back in 2022, the family moved out of Kensington Palace <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/prince-william-kate-middletons-adelaide-cottage-scandalous-past-within-royal-family.html/”>and into Adelaide Cottage </a>on the grounds of Windsor Castle, which has allowed them to bond more as a family and do normal things without the pomp and circumstance of royal life.</p>
