If you're a mom to a toddler, it doesn't matter if you're Susan down the street or the Duchess of Cambridge — toddlers can be complete assh*les sometimes. Like the rest of us, Kate Middleton certainly goes through the ebbs and flows of motherhood, but unlike the rest of us, most of her parenting is on display through high-res photos of her wearing chic clothing as her toddler melts down beside her.
Whether she's pretty in pink and matching with Charlotte — who is crying hysterically at who knows what — walking away from a screaming George to let Prince William "deal with this one," or kneeling down to chat with whichever child seems like they could be on the brink of a meltdown at any moment, Kate has dealt with her fair share of kid tantrums in public.
Ahead, see some of the photos of Kate defusing toddler tantrums at every stage while simultaneously reminding us that she's not all that different from the rest of us moms. And, also, of course, that toddlers are the worst.
