Kate Middleton a Fan of Kim Kardashian's Reality Show?
Kate Middleton is reportedly a fan of Kim Kardashian's E! Reality TV show, according to an unverified new claim.
A British tabloid report claims the hit reality show "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" is a guilty pleasure for the Duchess of Cambridge. The show is often criticized for it's vulgar themes, but it remains a huge hit amongst fans like Middleton, 31.
"Ever since Kim started mentioning Kate a lot in public, the Princess has started watching Keeping Up With The Kardashians religiously," a source told the The Daily Star.
"She thinks the family are hilarious. People forget that Kate is just a normal girl, who married into royalty, and enjoys the same trashy TV shows most people do," the source added.
While Middleton and Kardashian come from vastly different backgrounds, both women are amongst some of the most photographed celebrities in the world. Prince William, 30, is reportedly not a fan of Kardashian's show.
"Will doesn't watch the show with her, and makes fun of her for liking it so much. It doesn't bother Kate, though. She finds it relaxing, and is flattered Kim keeps speaking so highly of her," the source said.
Middleton is said to have received a pregnancy gift from Kardashian, 31, in recent weeks as the pair is both expecting. The reality TV star, who is expecting her first child with rapper Kanye West, reportedly sent a "warm note" along with a gift to Middleton after she discovered they are both due to give birth around the same time.
"When Kim found out the pair had similar due dates, she got incredibly excited," a source told The Daily Mirror.
"She had her PA write a kind, warm note to Kate, enclosing a gift for the future heir to the throne and explaining they were both due in July," the source continued.
Kardashian confirmed that she is expecting a child with rapper Kanye West, 35, back in January while Middleton and Prince William confirmed their pregnancy news one month prior. Middleton has not publicly responded to the gift reports.
