Kate Middleton and her children are used to spending long hours in this place out of sight, which only a secret path from Buckingham Palace can get there.

Bertrand Deckers is a journalist passionate about the royal family. Like any self-respecting fan, he managed to unearth exclusive and crisp information about the British monarchy. These little well-kept secrets, he exposed them in his book I Love Elizabeth II, published by Robert Laffont. We can then learn that Kate Middleton and her children have a habit of go to a unique and hidden place in Buckingham Palace. If many are unaware of it, the castle has a hidden swimming pool, or rather a huge twenty-meter pool. “William, Kate and their children are the most frequent visitors to this luxurious pool”, he explains. This space was developed in 1938 by George VI, father of Elizabeth II. If Prince George, Princess Charlotte and little Louis love spending time there so much, it’s because you have to “take one of the castle’s secret passages” to get there. What to make the experience more “out of time”.

An important place for many members of the royal family

According to the magazine Hello!it is in this swimming pool sheltered from the eyes of the Palace that the elders of the Cambridge clan have learned to swim. Before them, Elizabeth II and her sister, Princess Margaret, also had their first strokes in this basin. The royal family would be particularly fond of swimming, and in the residences of the British monarchy, swimming pools are not lacking! Indeed, they can take advantage of that of Anmer Hall, or even the basin of the bucolic domain of Highgrove House, particularly prized by Charles III and his wife Camilla Parker Bowles.
