The royal couple are parents to three children: Prince George, five, Princess Charlotte, three, and Prince Louis, four months.

But as well as being a full time mum and dad, the pair also have a host of royal duties to fulfil.

The birth certificate of Prince Louis, who was born on April 23 at the Lindo Wing, provided the official occupations of both Kate and William in a shock revelation.

Under William’s name was written “Prince of the United Kingdom”, while Kate’s job was listed as “Princess of the United Kingdom”.

What does Kate do all day?

Kate is a full-time mum to Prince Louis and her two other children but has assisted her husband on royal trips both at home and abroad.

The pair have travelled to Canada and Sweden in the last couple of years.

The duchess also works closely with several charitable organisations focused on her “where she feels her support can make a difference”, as stated on the Royal Family website.

She tends to focus on causes supporting vulnerable children and adults in addition to sport-related charities with her known love of sports and the outdoors.

Kate is also known for her key photography skills and has been Patron of the National Portrait Gallery since 2012.

What about Prince William?

William is second-in-line to the throne after his grandmother, the Queen, and his father, Prince Charles.

He spent seven and a half years in the military, both with the Royal Navy and RAF.

In 2014, he began training for a helicopter pilot role with the East Anglian Air Ambulance before leaving last year to focus full-time on royal duties.

On the Royal Family website it states the Duke of Cambridge “works in support of the Queen and Royal Family through his programme of charitable work, Royal duties, and in carrying out engagements in the UK and on official tours overseas”.

Back in June this involved a historic five-day tour of the Middle East taking in Jordan, Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories.

Along with wife Kate, and brother, Prince Harry, 33, William set up mental health coalition charity Heads Together in 2017 to tackle stigma and provide support for people in need.

Criticism has been directed at William in the past for having a “work-shy” attitude to official royal life.

But the prince insisted that was not the case during interviews in 2016 to mark the Queen’s 90th birthday.

Speaking before he retired from his air ambulance role, he told the BBC: “I take duty very seriously.

“I take my responsibilities very seriously. But it’s about finding your own way at the right time, and if you’re not careful duty can weigh you down at a very early age.

“I think you have got to develop into a duty role.”
