Kate Middleton's mum, Carole Middleton, has revealed her favourite parts of the autumn season, and has shared how she plans to spend Halloween with her grandchildren, in a new Instagram post for her company Party Pieces.
Sharing a candid photo to Instagram, the 67-year-old wrote, "Halloween is an Autumn highlight for me. I can still remember the fun and frights from my own childhood; the chance to dress up, decorate pumpkins and go trick-or-treating!"
Carole then goes onto reveal a possible new holiday tradition for her family, which will likely include her grandchildren Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, seven, and Prince Louis. four. Pippa Middleton's three children, Arthur, three, Grace, one, and newborn baby Rose, who Carole is also a grandmother to, are also likely to be included.
"I've even grown my own pumpkins this year, so I'm looking forward to decorating those with my loved ones," Carole said.

Even throughout the coronavirus pandemic, Carole and her grandchildren remained in festive spirits. In 2020, she shared on Instagram that her grandchildren would still be helping her prepare for the Christmas holidays from afar.
She wrote, "For me, what really matters is that my family feels connected. I normally let my grandchildren help me decorate the tree. This year, I'll ask them by video call to decide which decoration should go where. It may need to be tastefully rearranged later…!"
Kate Middleton appears to have picked up at least some of her mother's passion for celebrating autumnal holidays. In 2019, she was spotted in a Norfolk supermarket with Prince George and Princess Charlotte, helping the pair to pick out Halloween costumes.
According to People.com, an onlooker later revealed, "I didn't see what she actually bought. The lady that told me she was there had children with her, and she said Kate was asking her children what they were going to be for Halloween. I think she bought some Halloween bits for her kids, but I don't know what."
