Does the Princess of Wales shop on Amazon?
Kate has never mentioned publicly whether she shops on Amazon or not - though plenty of her tried and tested favourites are indeed available to buy on the online shopping portal, as this article proves.
In the past, Kate has been photographed getting the weekly shop in at Waitrose in Norfolk or popping to Peter Jones on Sloane Square, so we know from experience that she’s not averse to heading to the shops herself. With this in mind, can we see her browsing Amazon and clicking add to basket? Or is it more likely she and Prince William have an assistant who’s tasked with doing the shopping? It’s hard to say.
The couple does have a nanny, Maria Teresa Turrion Borrallo, who has been with them since Prince George was eight months old, but shopping would not necessarily be part of her official duties unless buying items needed for the general care of the children. She trained at the elite Norland College in Bath, which is known for producing top-rate nannies. Their website states one of the duties as: “taking responsibility for the nanny purse and making sound judgements when purchasing items from the nanny purse, as well as obtaining a receipt and providing a fully detailed list of weekly expenses.”
