Thought this excerpt was quite revealing...and if there is any truth in it at all, doubt there will be much sympathy by the Queen for the recent hooha
"As if it wasn?t bad enough to be called Waity Katie for eight years, poor Kate Middleton is now known in the royal inner circle as Duchess of Dolittle! Though Kate has appeared at dozens of charity events since marrying Prince William last April, that?s not good enough for Queen Elizabeth II, who?s been complaining of her ?laziness,? a royal source reveals.
Stuck at home while William is in the Falklands, Kate is under pressure to be more like Princess Diana.
A source says, ?The Queen maintains a full schedule of events,? and huffs that Kate isn?t doing the same.
Some of the other complaints?
?She doesn?t get out enough!? ? In less than a year, Kate has made 35 appearances at charity events, but that?s nothing to the Queen, who recalls Princess Diana?s superhuman efforts as a new royal ? 170 engagements in a year!
?She?s much too vain!? ? With all eyes on Kate ? and women all over Britain copying her famous hairstyle ? she is under tremendous pressure to look her best. Indeed, a royal source shares that she spends four to five hours getting her hair cut and styled.
?She spends too much money!? ? Kate caused a stir when she shoed up at a charity event carrying a $1,300 Mulberry bag, and often wears expensive clothes during her few charitable outings.
?She isn?t very bright.? During a viewing of her wedding dress at Buckingham Palace with the Queen, Kate raised royal eyebrows when she asked if priceless antique Faberge eggs were still being made. An uninformed statement for an art history major. Still, Kate will be the first queen to have graduated college!
