Kate Middleton's secret 'special talent' that Prince William doesn't share

Prince William has shared one of his wife Kate Middleton's biggest talents around the house - and admitted he's not so good at it himself.

This week, the pair have been out and about on a number of solo royal duties before returning to their new home on the Windsor Estate, Adelaide Cottage.

And if you're wondering what they're like around the house and how the chores are split, William gave somewhat of an insight at a recent charity event as he took to the kitchen to prepare a meal.

The prince has revealed his wife has a "special talent" that she puts to use during their downtime - a talent that is not shared by him.

The Mirror reports his admission came earlier this week when he helped out in the kitchen at a charity that fights against gang violence.

Together as One is made up of staff, volunteers and young carers, and they welcomed Prince William on his visit where he prepared a chicken teriyaki in the kitchen with chef Kevin Muhammad and a team of young people.

And he proudly told them: "Catherine is a very good cook."

He also said he's good at preparing breakfast and can cook a "mean" steak but his sauces always turn out "dry or lumpy".

Kate has spoken about her husband's culinary skills before in a BBC programme with legendary baker Mary Berry.

She told the former Bake Off star: "In our university days he used to cook all sorts of meals - I think that was when he was trying to impress me, Mary.

"Things like Bolognese, sauces and things like that.”

Not so confident about her own skills, she added: "William has to put up with my cooking most of the time now", with the prince piping up: "It’s the reason I’m so skinny!"

However her baking skills seem to be appreciated by the rest of her family, as she also explained how she likes to make birthday cakes for her children George, Charlotte and Louis every year.

She shared: "I love making the cake.

"It’s become a bit of a tradition that I stay up until midnight with ridiculous amounts of cake mix and icing and I make far too much. But I love it."
