On the ticker on BBC News 24.

Thought there might be a thread, there wasn't so here's one ... although not sure why I am bothering really as my main feeling is .

Just strikes me as odd that it's on the "breaking news" ticker really!

I used to really like Kate until she went all Hollywood. I also don't like how she always tries to normalise herself, I'm just a mum etc etc. But still, sucks for them.

I hate celebrity break-ups - takes up a ridiculous amount of emotional head-space!

Should be but am in fact

She did the charming thing of divorcing her first husband because his career wasn't taking off as well as hers, didn't she?

A Beard is a person of the opposite sex with whom one enters a public relationship to prove they are not gay.

Am I correct?

I am not surprised tbh.

She got pregnant so quickly after meeting and then they married. He hadn't been the marrying type by some accounts.

I am sorry for the kids, especially Mia.
