While cooking,
Prince William made a two-word comment to his wife, Kate Middleton.
"When they were making this apple and potato bread, at one point they were having to peel the apples they'd already harvested on this farm William [was] telling Catherine 'Keep up.' In any other situation, it could have sparked a bit of domestic and she was just like 'Yeah, yeah, yeah,' she's very game,'" royal editor
Rebecca English told
Daily Mail's "Palace Confidential" podcast.

Prince William and Kate Middleton also sampled cider at Long Meadow Cider, owned by the McKeever family.
"The juice was freshly pressed, with no added water or sugar,"
Peter McKeever told
Daily Express. "They got it in its raw, pure state, and they absolutely loved it. William didn't say what he liked as a favorite, but he said he likes a dry cider."
