Kate Middleton

[WILKO9]

AIBU to find Kate Middleton really annoying ? It's probably just me but I find her so smug. Anyway feel much better for getting that off my chest !!!

Well I don't the marshmallow company's finances are in the rudest of health.

Outrageous at the lack of flumpage.

She's considered a commoner in comparisons to the Royal Family, not the likes of us!

I suspect she'll perhaps become more vocal as time goes on and the reins are loosened a bit. But after Fergie and Diana I highly doubt the Royal Family much like the idea of her running around doing what she likes. Docile, demure and bland is just how they like her to be in public.

It's distasteful how she and her relatives seem to appear at all these public and sporting events when they have nothing to do with royalty, taking up space that should be given to less privileged people who aren't riding on the back of someone else's money to get where they have.

I thought the Middletons were self-made millionaires?

Ouch on your description of Kate Moss Twowrongs .
Don't give a shiny ... about Kate Middleton or her lot. I don't think it would change one iota even if I did, she has her life, I have mine. I don't believe she waltzed out of hospital a few hours after giving birth. I'm sure that was for public perception/benefit. She probably gave birth a day or two before and staged the event to the public or else was drugged to the eyeballs on pain relief or had a private cs. Either way none of it matters

Notice the flurry of activity form Catherine a couple of days before the ruby world cup?

I think we will see less of get for a weeks until a couple of days before her holiday

Ah, but if KM was to breastfeed ostentatiously, what an effect that would have!

Alis aren't male footballers sometimes spoken of as role models? Hence the importance placed on them not getting pissed and driving cars, or raping girls in hotel rooms.

I don't mind her much one way or another, she seems harmless enough. I think the royals are outdated but then, it's not my country paying for them so the fawning over them doesn't bother me really.

Tbh I dont know why the wife of someone should be expected to do or be anything.

He is the member of the royal family. He is the one with duties and obligations.

A wife of a world renowned brain surgeon wouldnt be expected to operate / assist with operations / have a medical knowledge of the human brain?

Sometimes yes, but all of those acts fall into the bracket of not embarrassing your employer, which isn't so different from any other job any average bloke might have.

But she's in the royal family now as much as William is.

As a teen/young adult Kate Middleton went through hell... she totally deserves to be smug now :)

Ah yes the Duchess of Smug. Her and her frighful sister known as the Wisteria Sisters due to their clinging and social climbing attempts.

She had produced an heir and a spare so should get lorst now.

I think if Kate was a social climber it is rather understating things to say she only attempted.

Doesn't she have a degree in Art History? Perhaps, when the children are older, she could work in an Art Gallery or learn how to do picture restoration. Prince William has got a proper job when he's not too busy attending sporting occasions! They could become modern working parents with child-care problems.

Being a brain surgeon is a professional, vocational job which is highly regulated. . So obviously a surgeon's wife or husband can't carry out the same role.

Marrying into the RF is more akin to marrying into a family business. However, there is the added element that that firm exists to represent the UK people. That's why the Queen pitches up at the cenotaph - to represent the people. So, if you marry in at a high ranking level you have to do your bit. If not, there is little point in the RF existing

What 'hell' did she go through, MTW? Thought she attended a well-regarded private school and a reaonably gentle ancient university.

Ahem. Diana was a commoner too.

A commoner is someone who is not royal. You lot are probably too old to remember but Charles was expected to marry a Princess and there were actually a few raised eyebrows that he married a mere Lady. Although it was acknowledged that there were practically no princesses around for him to marry; IIRC there was a Swiss one? (actually I have just googled and I think maybe it was Princess Marie Christine of Belgium) but there was nothing doing there and there was Princess Caroline of Monaco which was impossible as she is a Catholic. And that was about it. But the heir to the throne had not married someone who wasn't a Prince or Princess for quite a while. (Obviously the Queen's Father married a Lady but he wasn't heir to the throne then.)

A young women gets married to the man of her dreams, has children, and is lucky enough to be able to stay home with them and have her loving mum on hand to help. There are a great many women who would love that scenario.

Sounds lovely to me. If it weren't for the fact that random strangers make up the facts of her life and judge her for everything they think she does and doesn't do.

£15 for nine marshmallows? .

Donna Air=commoner.

Balloon i read somewhere that Diana only met Charles around 10 times before they were married. Don't know if that's true, but to my mind it was certainly more or less an 'arranged marriage'. Certainly on his part. He was in love with someone his own age, but already married else and Diana was a shy, gauche teenager who he'd seen grow up.

I have said before in here that she boils my piss. She had the most expensive education money can buy and did nothing with it except wait nearly a decade for a rich man to propose. Now she has one of the biggest (if not the biggest) platforms in the world to do good, and she uses it to swish about having her hair done.

I cannot bear it.
