Back in the early days of their relationship in 2006, William are Kate are said to have gone through a “rocky patch” and a temporary break-up.

So confused about what to do, Prince William gathered the Queen and Prince Charles together over Christmas to seek their advice, according to royal expert and author Katie Nicholl.

The Queen is said to have made it clear that she was disappointed that William and Kate had broken up and advised William “not to hurry into” making a permanent decision on the relationship.
