Prince William once made a confession about his sleeping arrangements with wife Kate Middleton.

The Prince and Princess of Wales, 43, live at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor Home Park with their three children – Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, seven.

Joining the family is their adorable dog Orla – and it seems the spaniel has a special sleeping place…

Prince William and Kate Middleton’s sleeping arrangements

During a visit to Duchy College Stoke Climsland in Callington, Cornwall, last October, Prince William, 43, made a revelation.

He was chatting to Louise Harland, who met the Prince of Wales with her dog Jacks.

Louise later told Hits Radio Cornwall: “[William] said that his little dog sleeps on the bed with them at night, with him and Kate.”

Awwwww!

Louise added: “[He was] absolutely in love with my little dog. He asked what breed he was and he’s never met one of those breeds – he’s a Cockerjack – so he’s a little bit of a unique combination.”

In the summer of 2020, Prince William and Kate got their pup Orla. Orla was given to the family by Kate’s brother James Middleton.

Just months after welcoming Orla into the family, William and Kate lost their other dog Lupo. Lupo was a wedding present to the couple from James again.

William said that his little dog sleeps on the bed with them at night, with him and Kate.

At the time, the couple said in a statement on social media: “Very sadly last weekend our dear dog, Lupo, passed away.

“He has been at the heart of our family for the past nine years and we will miss him so much. – W & C.”

Do Prince William and Kate Middleton sleep in separate bedrooms?

There’s much speculation over whether royal couples share a bedroom. It comes after reports claimed that the late Queen Elizabeth II and husband Prince Philip had separate bedrooms.

However, it’s unclear if other royal couples follow in their footsteps. Prince William and Kate live at Adelaide Cottage which has four bedrooms with their three kids so it may be unlikely that they have separate rooms. However, they’ll soon move to eight-bedroom Forest Lodge, also on the Windsor estate.

According to Prince Phillip’s cousin Lady Pamela Hicks, members of the upper class “always have separate bedrooms”.

She made the revelation to Sally Bedell Smith in her 2012 biography of the Queen, Elizabeth the Queen: The Life of a Modern Monarch.

Lady Pamela said: “In England, the upper class always have had separate bedrooms. You don’t want to be bothered with snoring or someone flinging a leg around. Then when you are feeling cosy you share your room sometimes. It is lovely to be able to choose.”
