Princess Kate recently made a notable appearance at the Norfolk Music Festival, where she dined at a prominent restaurant called Turntable and Napkin. Reports indicate that she left a substantial £700 tip for the staff, showcasing her thoughtful nature and kind-heartedness.
The Princess of Wales attended the festival, held at Hofton Hall estate, owned by David Rock Savage and Rose Hanbury. Unlike opting for festival food trucks, Kate chose to enjoy a four-course meal at the restaurant, which costs around £60 per person.
According to the Daily Mail, Princess Kate's generous tip came after learning about the server's circumstances. An employee named Anne shared details of her family's difficulties, particularly her mother's serious illness, and how working overtime during the festival was a boon for her. Touched by Anne's story, Kate quietly left a substantial tip, demonstrating her empathy and compassion.
On the other hand, contrasting Kate's actions, there were criticisms directed at Duchess Meghan's behavior in a UK restaurant. Known for her assertiveness, Meghan was described as acting like a princess while dining at a hip eatery. She reportedly requested to reserve a courtyard meant for a birthday party, which was declined due to prior reservations. Meghan was subsequently seated inside the bustling restaurant, drawing attention to her actions.
Kate's appearance at the Norfolk Music Festival was a notable event, marking her first known attendance at such an occasion. The idea was suggested by one of the guests after dinner, and despite initial hesitations, Kate eventually agreed with the support of protection officers.
In the end, Princess Kate's considerate gesture of leaving a generous tip resonated positively with the staff, while the different attitudes displayed by Kate and Meghan continue to captivate the public's attention.
