The couple live in a £4.7million home in the village of Bucklebury, Berkshire, which is less than an hour's drive from the Cambridges' chosen property of Adelaide Cottage. “In 1540, following the dissolution of the monasteries including Reading Abbey, Henry VIII granted it to John Winchcombe, the wealthy son of a local wool merchant, who became an MP four years later. The house later passed to the Hartley family, descendants of a female branch of the Winchcombe family.

Pippa, who once wrote a book filled with tips on entertaining, will be able to grow produce in the huge walled garden and greenhouses. And they will need the extra space, as I’m told she’s heavily pregnant with their third child. James pans the camera to reveal Alizee, Carole and Michael drinking wine in the most incredible garden with tonnes of gorgeous flowers in bloom. James then does a quick shave in front of the camera, until he's totally bare-faced. Next, he hops off the back of the truck and heads back towards the garden of the Middleton's home, Bucklebury Manor, where it's believed he and Alizee are staying with his parents, Carole and Michael, during lockdown.

Meanwhile the entrepenuer has also shared glimpses of the stunning outdoor spaces at his parent's home. Eagle-eyed viewers were treated to a peek at the Middleton family kitchen, which features farmhouse-style cream tiles above a range cooker. With his adorable black spaniel Ella perched on what appeared to be an island strewn with fresh produce, James revealed why the popular fruit is a great source of fibre for hounds. Kate’s parents Carole and Michael triumphed in what was called a ‘fierce bidding war’ for the seven-bedroom property to buy their home in 2012.

James' house features four bedrooms, "low ceilings, dark rustic beams, and leaded windows," the outlet reported. James and his wife-to-be Alizee Thevenet started house hunting a couple of months ago, and it seems they found exactly what they'd been looking for. Kate stayed at the home with Prince William for several months following the birth of Prince George in 2013, and even shared their first official family portrait from the garden of the estate. As well as the seven bedrooms, The Manor has 5 reception rooms including an entrance hall, drawing room, dining room with 17th century fireplace, library, sitting room, swimming pool, tennis court, and extensive gardens. In March, Kate's brother shared a snapshot of his dogs perched infront of a stunning modern cream fireplace, tagging the post in his parent's village.

Kate Middleton and her siblings grew up in leafy West Berkshire with parents Carole Middleton and Michael Middleton. Whilst Kate now lives at Kensington Palace with Prince William and her children, her parents still reside in the quaint Berkshire village of Bucklebury. They even shared their first official family portrait from the garden of the estate.

Between Kate, her brother James Middleton and their parents, the family have revealed a few photos of the home. Kate's more modest childhood home was a four-bedroomed house in Bradfield, Berkshire, where she lived from birth up until the age of 13 . It's believed that Kate's parents, Carole and Michael, purchased it in 2012 and it's where Prince George spent the first few weeks of his life. When the Cambridge family visit Kate’s parents, royal protection officers and cars are said to be a common sight around the picturesque village.
