They've gone to the Maldives without Prince George apparently (it's in the dm)

Seriously?? Think this might turn the tide of public opinion against them...seems its just one long holiday being the D and D of Cambridge....

dolittles is a great name - a whole lot of other people though are out and out spongers celebs don't pay for stuff companies send it to them and the cost goes onto the other products they do sell.

Mps get subsidies of well over a million for their lunches in parliament

when you are rich it seems the rules are

I expect they are trialling leaving George in the hands of his nanny before their tour of Australia. George and his nanny need time to get used to one another.

She is expected to produce an heir and a spare.

The life she chose.

she is not like Diana who was always rebellious

she is shielded and seems to want to stat that way, she had years waiting around staying hidden out of sight for much of the time

maybe one day she will get bored or maybe she likes the life of doing well very little

for some yes

but not for all

oohdaddypig · 08/03/2014 13:00

I don't envy them any of it. Apart from the lack of sleepless nights :)

I also quite like how they do things their way. They probably don't give a toss if they are judged or not.

Personally I couldn't leave my baby that long, nanny or not. That bit has surprised me.

Puzzledandpissedoff · 08/03/2014 14:22

I'm just remembering all the positive comments they attracted when living modestly on Anglesey; he went to work at the helicopter base and she'd go shopping locally like any other wife

I wouldn't grudge anyone the odd holiday but it does seem a bit extreme to keep flying off like this; I just hope they're not going to follow in Charles' footsteps with his spendthrift, self-entitled lifestyle Hmm

gertiegusset · 08/03/2014 16:23

Hasn't she just got back last week from Mustique?

Nice work if you can get it.

gertiegusset · 08/03/2014 16:24

But hey, the college course was paid for privately.
Well how the hell else should it have been paid. Hmm

Bonsoir · 08/03/2014 16:25

I know George is going to Australia - but he will spend nearly all his time with his nanny whereas up to know he has spent nearly all his time with his mother.

LetZygonsbeZygons · 08/03/2014 17:35

Oh how lovely for them.
meanwhile I have to get me and DC up at nightmare o clock to do a carboot tomorrow as I have no money and need to pay necessities, selling the few things we have which we need but need food and clothing and heating more..........never had a holiday in 13 years.......

oh so happy for them.

LittleBearPad · 08/03/2014 17:38

I don't think I'd fly for eleven hours to nearly the other side of the world in order to see if the nanny is much cop. Confused. She could go next door for that.

ExcuseTypos · 08/03/2014 17:48

Agree LittleBear.

LaGuardia · 08/03/2014 17:55

It must be tough being a Royal Protection Officer, being ordered to work in the Maldives. I wonder if they need a nurse Wink

I can't believe someone's just put " what life is that?". Perhaps it's the living in a palace, holidaying whenever you like,being the most photographed woman in the world, being the most popular woman in the world, being dressed in the most fabulous clothes in the world and jewellery to match. Yes, what life is that doh .

It's time the monarchy was abolished.

Every time they think the tides turning on them they just get told to do another public endearing exercise (as in the Wills and Harry show of support helping with flood defences) then all of a sudden everyone loves them again. They certainly know how to manipulate a gullible public these royals.

LittleBearPad · 08/03/2014 18:12

Isn't she the most popular woman in the world precisely because she hasn't achieved much. She is totally non-threatening and she has no opinions. There is little divisive about her until possibly now when I think she and William have fucked up, but she'll get the blame because she's the mum
