What Were Prince William and Kate Middleton Like?
When asked what the prince and princess were like at the beginning of their relationship, Harold told the outlet, “Oh, like any boyfriend and girlfriend. Not any different to anyone else, it’s mad saying that when you think about who they are, but there wasn’t anything different.”
He emphasized that what he like, was that Kate was “being a girlfriend,” and not, as it were, a “member of the royal family.” He said that she was “so polite, friendly, and fun and making jokes.”
“It was always fun,” he said, “and it was always nice that I got on so well with them because they’d then ask me to travel the country with them. When my phone used to go off and it was William, all my friends would be like that’s so cool, but to me it was normal.

“That was the relationship I had with them. I think it was really special and not unusual, actually, because in a private home you’re expected to get on with the family. As for the younger members of the family, you’re not employed by them, but you end up having a relationship with them as well. There’s very few people that the Royals actually get to know, so you do feel lucky that you were trusted with that.”
