Kate Middleton’s Hidden Talent Is Surprisingly Handy

Ever since she talked about wanting to become a young farmer, we’ve known just how fond Kate Middleton is of the great outdoors. But at a meeting to celebrate the Cub Scouts’ 100th anniversary, the Duchess of Cambridge revealed yet another connection to nature—a hidden talent that we never would’ve guessed. “I am good at… Bonfire Building,” she wrote during an exercise in which attendees were asked to list on a card the activities they did best. The skill, which is particularly useful this time of year, doesn’t come as a total shock; after all, the Duchess previously worked as a volunteer with the Cub Scouts when she lived in North Wales. Kate then went on to participate in a parachute game, decorate cupcakes and practice first aid with the children. Can she be any more perfect?
