Kate Middleton

Ever since the little one arrived in July, it's been clear Kate and Wills want to give George an as normal upbringing as they can. Not only did they head to her parent's home soon after his arrival as they got to grips with parenthood, they also delayed hiring any nannies, bucking royal tradition for centuries.

According to Us Weekly the Duchess was determined from the start that George would be getting a different upbringing from the royals, with the key being "to keep a normal environment around George."

"Kate doesn't want George to be more used to the sight of the help than to his own parents," an insider told the magazine.

With Kate returning to full royal duties around a month ago, the close source claims it hasn't been easy being a full time mum and finding time for her commitments as a royal, but that she wouldn't have it any other way.

"George has given a whole new meaning to Catherine's life," they added. It looks like Kate and Wills are splitting the parenting duties down the middle.

This week William attended two engagements, a visit to Birmingham today and the Winter White Gala on Tuesday night, without Kate, while the Duchess stepped out at the SportsAid CharityBall last night.

According to the insider despite being royals, Kate and Wills consider themselves like any other parent juggling careers with parenthood.

"They look at their friends and see how they have managed raising a baby while having careers," the source said. "They don't see why it should be so different for them."
