Simply because her husband can be the King of England someday doesn’t mean she will’t rib the royal.
Kate Middleton, 41, has some cheeky nicknames for Prince William, 41, in keeping with one royal source, including one endearing moniker for his smooth head — “baldy.”
Tom Quinn, who’s the creator of the February 2023 book “Gilded Youth: An Intimate History of Growing Up within the Royal Family,” claimed that he was told by palace staff that the Prince and Princess have pet names for one another, just “like all couples,” in keeping with The Mirror.
The creator reported that Middleton calls William “babe,” but additionally has some sassy names for her husband, like “Big Willy” and “baldy.”
These comebacks were apparently concocted after the “nudge” that the late Queen Elizabeth II used to inform Middleton, which was that she “didn’t have a full-time profession” before getting married to her husband.
Quinn claimed that Prince William also has some nicknames for Middleton, which include “Babykins” and “Duchess of Doolittle.”
The Post reached out to Kensington Palace for comment.
The royal couple first met after they were students at The University of St. Andrews in 2001, per Town & Country, but their relationship didn’t grow to be public until 2004 after they were spotted by the press while on vacation together.
They broke up briefly in 2007, but quickly got back together that very same 12 months, and married in April 2011 at Westminster Abbey.
The couple have three children together — Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.
And, it looks like they’ve taken their love for fun nicknames and passed it on to a few of their children over time.
In May, just just a few days after King Charles’ historic coronation ceremony, Middleton revealed the sweet name that she calls her youngest, Prince Louis.
While the royal family was visiting a Brownie troop in Slough, England, for an initiative called “The Big Help Out,” Middleton instructed her son to make a s’more.
“Pop that in the fireplace, Lou-Bug,” Middleton told Louis as they toasted marshmallows together on the event.
But Prince Louis isn’t the one royal child with a special name.
Charlotte is reportedly called “Lottie” by her mom, while George is generally known as “PG Suggestions,” in keeping with Harper’s Bazaar.
The couple’s eldest, Prince George, recently celebrated his tenth birthday on July 22.
