    The Wales family is undoubtedly the most talked-about in the world, with Prince William and Princess Kate making non-stop headlines.

    Kate, the Princess of Wales, gets the world talking in particular, with her recent role elevation being no exception.

    From her motherly moments to her iconic fashion looks that will stand the test of time, Princess Kate is the current star of the royal fold, credited with being the most popular member of the Mountbatten-Windsors and essential in helping them navigate the past few turbulent years.

    One of the reasons for Prince William and Princess Kate's popularity is their genuine and relatable relationship. This is a point of focus right now, as the Prince of Wales pauses his duties to look after his wife and children as Kate recovers from abdominal surgery.

    A post shared by The Prince and Princess of Wales (@princeandprincessofwales)

    One royal insider opened up about the Wales' happy marriage and family life last year, explaining how Prince William likes to spoil his wife, and unsurprisingly it went viral.

    "William will bring Kate a gin-and-tonic," a friend of the couple told PEOPLE. "They look after each other, but in different ways."

    "I love seeing them in public because I just truly feel like they are a unit," royal expert Kinsey Schofield explained via Express.co.uk. "They are in-sync with each other and there is genuine love there.

    "I think they are going to be a great king and queen one day," he continued. "They are so stoic and they’re just so well put together. They are a great team that supports one another."

    Well, Prince William would certainly know the way to our hearts with his cocktail deliveries.

    Royals - they're just like us!
