All you need to say about such fluff is that the difference in public appreciation of the monarchy and the tabloid press in the UK is enough to ignore stupid metrics. I don't want to see them freeloading either, but I'll cut Kate and Harry a bit of slack since she's a fairly recent second-time mother and a fairly hands-on one by all accounts. Harry was a full-time army officer for half of the year in question.
I don't think he is lazy but that was the gist of the story posted in the Dutch newspaper (based on the sun article).
Kate was indeed a new mother so it is very logical that she doesn't go out of the country.
What do you think, should (if Queen Elizabeth dies) Charles become the new King or should it be William. Personally I say let Charles be king so that William and Kate can spend it bit more time with their children and let those children grow without the news media hounding them due to the fact that William and Kate are king and queen.
