Kate Middleton and Princess Diana: Sure, it may not be the fairest comparison, but it's unavoidable, particularly now as Prince Williams wife is pregnant with an heir to the British throne.
But rather than get bogged down by the inevitable parallels, the Duchess of Cambridge would be wise to take a pointer or two from the late royal, particularly when it comes to rearing her firstborn in the ever-scrutinizing global spotlight.
Lesson one:
Keep the third in the line of succession as grounded as possible. Which, granted, may be easier said than done.
"Diana was always very keen on William and Harry knowing the world around them," Victoria Arbiter, ABC's royals contributor and daughter of former Queen Elizabeth II press secretary Dickie Arbiter, told E! News."She took them to McDonald's, she took them to the movies, they went to theme parks and homeless shelters.
"Yes, they were born into a very privileged background, but Diana made sure they knew they lived in a privileged background that wasn't normal and knew how other people lived."
