It’s no secret that Kate Middleton isn’t a fan of hospitals. But when it came time for her to give birth to her first child, Prince George, she not only had to endure the loss of her freedom but also couldn’t make a simple phone call to her own mother. Ever wondered why? Well, there’s an intriguing reason behind this royal rule.
Kate experienced a tough time during her pregnancies, dealing with hyperemesis gravidarum, a severe form of morning sickness. As a result, she had to stay in the hospital multiple times, including one before George’s birth. And when the big day finally arrived, Kate wasn’t allowed to call her parents right away. In fact, no one could know about the birth until Queen Elizabeth was informed.
