Another significant thing that happened in 2007 was a short break. They were separated from March to July, and the whole situation was monitored by the media. On this occasion, Duchess of Cambridge stated:
“I think I was not happy about it, but actually, it made me a stronger person … You find out things about yourself that you maybe you did not realize.
