Prince William faced disaster when trying to impress Kate Middleton

Prince William and Kate Middleton recently celebrated their 13th wedding anniversary, but his first attempt to woo her didn’t go all too well.

The couple went against the ‘royal traditions’ when they sparked up their romance after meeting at the University of St Andrews in 2001. Kate Middleton‘s life was never the same again after she and Prince William turned their friendship into romance. However, it could have been a completely different story, as the Prince’s attempt first attempt to ‘woo’ his now wife, went south.

Prince William’s ‘attempts to woo Kate’ went horribly wrong

Kate first caught William’s attention she took part in a charity fashion show. Many will be familiar with the photo of the now Princess in a sheer dress, which has become a staple part in their love story.

The couple both lived in the same residence in their first year at University and while they were flatmates, the Prince tried to impress his future wife by cooking up a storm in the kitchen.

However, it looked like the Princess of Wales had to step in many times. “He did cook for me quite a bit at university, and he would always come with a bit of angst and a bit of anger if something had gone wrong and I would have to wander in and save something that was going,” Kate previously told ABC news.

William then admitted to getting flustered and burning things in the process. “When I was trying to impress Kate I was trying to cook these amazing fancy dinners, and what would happen is I would burn something, something would overspill, something would catch on fire and she would be sitting in the background trying to help, and basically taking control of the whole situation… so I was quite glad she was there at the time,” he told the outlet.

However, the future King did say he was getting better in the kitchen, although his wife insisted she doesn’t ‘give him enough chance to practice.’

We should maybe cut William some slack though, we’re sure he had chefs cooking up all his dishes when he was younger!

At the start of this year, Kate revealed she was admitted to hospital for planned abdominal surgery. Months later, she revealed she was undergoing treatment for cancer, which was found during the operation.

Since then, the Princess has taken a step back from royal duties, and the limelight. William also took some brief time off, but he’s now back into the swing of things.

While carrying out engagements in Newcastle last week, he was asked: “Do you mind if I ask how your wife and children are?”

“We’re all doing well, thank you,” he responded. “And obviously Catherine?” the woman continued. To which Will once again repeated: “We’re all doing well.”
