Prince William Reveals His Major Gift Fail to Kate Middleton

You’d think Prince William and Kate Middleton have probably figured out the whole gift-giving thing after more than two decades together. I mean, they’ve been through numerous birthdaysanniversaries and holidays together, right? While that may be the case now, it apparently wasn’t always.

The Prince of Wales, 42, recently shared a story about a gift he gave Middleton early on in their relationship that definitely didn’t go as planned. Spoiler alert: it was memorable for all the wrong reasons.

“I did get my wife a pair of binoculars once—she’s never let me forget that,” he admitted during a recent interview on BBC Radio Five Live, according to the Mirror.

“I think that sealed the deal. It didn’t go well. Honestly, I have no idea why I bought her a pair of binoculars. It seemed like a good idea at the time,” he continued.

Prince William and Princess Catherine met in 2001 at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland and they tied the knot in a stunning ceremony at Westminster Abbey in April 2011. Since then, they’ve expanded their family with three kids—Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6.

This isn’t the first time Prince William has confessed to his questionable gift choice. Back in 2020, during an episode of the Peter Crouch Podcast, he shared the same story.

“I wrapped them. They were really nice,” he recalled. “I even tried convincing myself by saying, ‘These are amazing! Look how far you can see!’ And she’s looking at me going, ‘But they’re binoculars. What’s going on?’”

Safe to say, William’s binoculars didn’t make it to the top of Kate’s gift list. But hey, it’s the thought that counts, right? Surely, he’s learned a thing or two about gift-giving since then.
