Raising three small children isn’t for the faint of heart, even if you’re Kate Middleton and can afford all the necessary help. However, The Daily Express has recently reported that she’s also had to occasionally coddle Prince William, who she views as a “fourth child.” That’s what Tom Quinn, who authored “Gilded Youth: An Intimate History of Growing Up in the Royal Family,” has revealed in his new release. Quinn reportedly gathered intel about Prince William and Kate from a Kensington Palace insider. “Kate treats him [William] like the fourth child because he’s prone to tantrums,” said Quinn, citing the source. “They do have rows. It’s not a perfect marriage. They have terrific rows.” Fortunately, their “rows” haven’t escalated into violence. “But, where some couples have a row and throw heavy vases at each other, William and Kate throw cushions at each other,” added Quinn. “It’s always kept under control.”

While promoting the book, Quinn also accused William and Middleton of having intense fights. “Someone at the palace told me about the nicknames they have for each other,” Quinn shared with Fox News. “But it’s not all sweetness. They have terrible rows where they throw things at each other. Kate might seem to be a very calm person, and William also. But it’s not always true. Because the big stress for William and Kate is that they’re constantly surrounded by [palace aides]. It’s like a Jane Austen novel.”
