School mom reveals rare peek into Kate Middleton's parenting and private life: "I do see her a lot..."
It's a side of the Princess of Wales we rarely get to see. Kate Middleton might be the future queen of England, but when it comes to parenting, she's just like any other mom on the sidelines. At the premiere of The Real Housewives of London, cast member Panthea Parker shared a rare glimpse into the Princess of Wales' life as a school mom, revealing that Kate is a constant presence at her children's sports games. 'I see her quite a few times because my son's school plays against her son's school,' Parker told Hello!. 'So they play rugby and football against each other so we're always at her school or my school. I do see her a lot but not to talk to, just from afar. So classy, so lovely, and she never misses any of her children's matches, so really amazing.' A hands-on royal mom Kate, 43, and Prince William are raising Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, with a focus on family life despite their packed royal schedules. Kate has previously spoken about the challenges of balancing motherhood with duty. On the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast in 2020, she admitted to feeling 'mum guilt' when she couldn't do the school run. 'Even this morning, coming to the nursery visit here – George and Charlotte were like, 'Mummy how could you possibly not be dropping us off at school this morning?'' she said with a laugh. A family that loves sports The Wales family is known to be 'sport-mad,' as royal biographer Robert Jobson has put it. From rugby and football to their annual Wimbledon outings, the family embraces both playing and spectating. Jobson noted that George and Charlotte's appearances at big sporting events show not only their parents' enthusiasm but also a way to connect with the public. With summer holidays underway, the royal kids might be off the field for now — but according to Parker, fans can count on spotting their mom cheering from the sidelines once the school season kicks back in.

Pope Leo opts to share papal residence with four associates, breaking with tradition
Pope Leo XIV is shaking up tradition at the Vatican — moving into a newly renovated papal apartment and bringing four roommates, according to reports. Leo plans to share his new residence, which is undergoing a major revamp, marking the first time in modern history that a pope has decided to live communally in the palace's official quarters, The Telegraph reported. "It seems to be new to me," Vatican correspondent Iacopo Scaramuzzi told the UK outlet. "I don't know if that takes account of the long history of the Church, but certainly in the modern era." Among those reportedly joining him is his Peruvian personal secretary, Father Edgard Rimaycuna, who is often seen at Leo's side. A trusted adviser and close friend since the Pope's early pastoral years in South America, Father Edgard is thought of as one of Leo's most loyal companions. "In my opinion, Leo is definitely different to Francis but not that different," Scaramuzzi added. "He is returning to the papal apartments, but not like a king." The shared living arrangement is said to reflect the community ethos of the Augustinians, the order of friars to which Leo belongs. The move also contrasts with Pope Francis, who said no to moving into the papal apartments when he was ordained in 2013, choosing instead for a Vatican guesthouse. The Apostolic Palace, where the apartment lies, dates back to the 15th century and also houses papal offices, museums and the Sistine Chapel. Italian media outlet La Repubblica reported this week that renovations to the apartment are ongoing. The 10-room suite, located on the palace's third floor, has also undergone repairs for water infiltration and humidity after years of disuse. The Vatican has remained "tight-lipped about the latest restructure," according to The Telegraph, though technicians have been at work for months. When Francis died in April, the papal apartments were sealed in a ritual before being reopened for renovation. Since then, Pope Leo has been living in the Sagrestia building near St. Peter's Basilica. This isn't the first time Leo XIV has opted for a modern touch. Born to a working-class immigrant family in Chicago, he grew up modestly before joining the priesthood. In 2024, he told Vatican News that he strives to stay grounded: "A bishop is not supposed to be a little prince sitting in his kingdom, but rather called authentically to be humble, to be close to the people he serves, to walk with them and to suffer with them," he said. Reaction to Leo's move has been mixed online. Earlier this year, author James Martin wrote on X: "We need to trust Pope Leo's discernment in this and all things — and wish him well in his new digs!"
