As part of the royal family, Kate Middleton is expected to be on her best behavior pretty much at all times. From her public appearances [1] to her speaking engagements [2] to her charity work [3], the Duchess of Cambridge carries herself with the kind of around-the-clock elegance and kindness that Princess Diana was known for [4]. But while we love seeing Kate take part in her official duties, we also really love when she breaks away from them. The mom of two [5] is known for creating a new normal within the British royal family [6], and she always lets her fun personality shine through whatever it is she happens to be doing. Whether it's letting out a huge belly laugh or getting dirty at public functions, Kate has already had a ton of fun this year.
