After their marriage, after their three children, William and Kate could have quietly awaited their place on the throne, and lived a life filled with royal engagements, gala dinners, tweed outfits and state visits.
But that was without counting the arrival of Meghan Markle in the heart of Prince Harry.
Hurricane Meghan, coming from America.
Since then, nothing has gone right between the two brothers, yet so united until now, and even Kate is teetering on her pedestal.
In short, if we were starting to get a little bored at the Windsors, a new season is relaunching the royal soap opera.
In this mini-series devoted to Kate and William, Pascaline Potdevin, head of service at Madame Figaro, tells how the princely couple faced this public family crisis.
