Kate and her family have just spent 10 weeks in lockdown in Italy at their apartment in Bologna, amid the coronavirus pandemic.
In May, Kate revealed that spending 10 weeks in lockdown amid the coronavirus pandemic has made her a ‘better mother’ to her four children.
Kate shared a sweet photo of herself and her son Artie, 12, standing on some steps near their Bologna apartment.
‘Through our lockdown, I have become a better mother. Isn’t that an amazing thing to happen?’ she wrote in the Instagram caption.
Kate’s fans were quick to praise her on how well she has coped during the difficult period.
Kate and husband Peter Lewis relocated to Bologna, Italy, with their four children, Lewis, 16, Sunday, 15, Artie, 12, and Jan, nine, in January 2019.
It was was supposed to be a ‘family gap year,’ but they decided to extend the break for an additional 12 months.
