The uncle of Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales of the United Kingdom, joined the reality show “Celebrity Big Brother”, the celebrity version of the program, on Monday (4), offering millions of viewers the tantalizing prospect that he could gossip about the British royal family to your housemates.
Gary Goldsmith, 58, is the younger brother of Kate's mother, Carole Middleton. He was a guest at Kate's wedding to William, the heir to the throne, in 2011.
Her appearance on the show comes at a testing time for the royals after King Charles was diagnosed with cancer and Kate has been absent from public life while recovering from abdominal surgery in January.
Goldsmith said on the show that Kate was “just perfect.”

“The first time I met William, Catherine was cooking and William said 'Hi, would you like a cup of tea',” he said. “Very normal.”
The businessman, who made his fortune in IT recruitment, said he wanted to “clarify” his bad reputation as a bad boy.
But he added: “Annoying people is probably my favorite pastime.”
“I’m an absolute nightmare to live with; there’s a reason I’ve had four wives,” she added.
In 2017, Goldsmith was fined after assaulting his fourth wife, Julie-Ann, in a drunken argument.
He joined 11 other celebrities, including reality TV judge and music manager Louis Walsh and TV presenter Fern Britton, in the Big Brother house, where they are constantly filmed.
“Celebrity Big Brother” has been revived by broadcaster ITV six years after it was last shown on rival channel Channel 5.
