Did you know?: Kate Middleton is learning how to cook

They say the way to win a man’s heart is through his stomach, but Prince William was already head-over-heels for Kate Middleton in 2001, without her stewing up anything at all.

With the Queen’s permission, the Duke and Duchess have hired Antonella Fresolone, one of the Queen’s top housemaids famous for her Italian dishes, to help them in their new life. Prince William and Kate, who were reluctant to hire help before are now happy with Fresolone, who has been giving Kate cooking lessons in their Nottingham Cottage.

This isn’t the first time Kate has donned the commoner hat post-marriage. She was seen using her Starbucks points card, searching for Gap jeggings and grocery shopping, but this is the first time the Duchess of Cambridge is cooking.

Recently, Kate was spotted with her mother Carole Middleton, shopping at baby boutiques and décor for their new home. The Royal couple is expected to move into Apartment 1-A Kensington Palace in London later this year, and has been busy preparing for their new home as they welcome their first child in July.

The way Kate is going, she will make Prince William fall in love with her all over again!
