Just watched her speech on itv news . She looks exhausted and not at all like her normal glamorous self ? I hope she is ok ?? We all have bad days I guess.

We all have our bad days. But the rest of us aren't in the public eye 24/7. I couldn't stop laughing at the comment up thread "she has a very serious, chronic condition called children"... Grin

HappyFlappy · 17/01/2017 20:35

Probably had children that wake mega early and maybe in the night too.

Yeah Minge - if you believe that she gets up in the night to see to her own sports, you'll believe that George Clooney would rather be beaten to a pulp than part with his coffee machine, and that Nanette Newman used to do the washing up.

Her hair looks massive, maybe she is upduffed again!

I genuinely don't know anyone in real life who after being married six years and taking their husbands name, people deliberately , even though they fully know the name has changed, Insist of referring to that person by their maiden name.

Even when they themselves took their husbands name and expect to be referred to by it, they still refer to her my her maiden name.

Very bizzare and she looks fine to me. 🙄

Nor do I Crystal - it was just a comment Emmerdale made. There was nothing unkind about it.

bibblewanda actually yes. If I felt William looked tired I'd also post saying I hope he was ok ???? Why is that so bad ?? I am genuinely concerned as she did not look herself

I think she looks fantastic. I'm a year older than her with 2 kids and I look like shit in comparison.

lapsedorienteerer · 17/01/2017 20:40

I think she looks just fine

Thank you to everyone who recognised my post was not meant to come across as bitchy. I am genuinely concerned about her . I have not said one thing bitch or mean.

SquarePegRoundHole · 17/01/2017 20:42

Yes I did. Why do you ask?

HappyFlappy · 17/01/2017 20:42

She IS smoker Brique

Emmerdale - take no notice - you passed an innocent remark. There was nothing nasty about it - some people are very quick to take offence over nothing (and yet for all they know you might have a hidden disability/ be worried about the dog/ not have had any sleep for three months/ on glue Grin).

They make excuses for the most appalling behaviour that people post about, but don't give the same consideration to the poster. (Thisisn't a way of saying your comment was out of order- it wasn't. It's a way of saying they shouldn't be bullying you.)

DameXanaduBramble · 17/01/2017 20:42

Oh stop being so precious. some of you take it way to personally.

formerbabe · 17/01/2017 20:42

I am genuinely concerned

Confused

Really?! You're GENUINELY concerned for her? How will you sleep tonight worrying about the Duchess of Cambridge?!

Hilarious!

Fwiw, I thought she looked perfectly fine.

SquarePegRoundHole · 17/01/2017 20:43

She might look a bit peaky due to being with child Grin

CrystalMcPistol · 17/01/2017 20:44

Bluntness some people used to call Diana Lady Di long after she stopped being Lady Di. I call her Kate Middleton because that's what most people refer to her as. Besides, I think people sound like horrific crawlers when they call her the Duchess of Cambridge.

QueenoftheAndals · 17/01/2017 20:45

Her hair looks massive, maybe she is upduffed again!

derxa · 17/01/2017 20:45

No wonder William is grumpy. His DM had this shite all her married life and it ended up in her death in her thirties. I don't even like Kate much but she is trying so hard. This thread is pathetic.

CrystalMcPistol · 17/01/2017 20:46

Upduffed by hair extensions maybe!

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 17/01/2017 20:46

I think she looks a bit peaky. I like her dress.

dawnmist · 17/01/2017 20:47

No the royal family are pathetic. Why shouldn't they be criticised, rather that than fawn over them.

ShinyMoonFace · 17/01/2017 20:48

I think she looks great, and to me not noticeably tired, but I saw only the DM pics. (So shoot me).

I like her. I think she is just a nice girl with a rather extraordinary job and I think she loved her husband and her family very much and is trying to live her life as well as she can.

I could not do it - I freak out when my own family comment on my weight, much less the whole entire bloody world commenting. I think it must take alot of inner strength to deal with all the scrutiny and shit that comes her way.

Cupcakey · 17/01/2017 20:49

I think she looks amazing! I wish i looked even half as good!

ShinyMoonFace · 17/01/2017 20:49

Manumission · 17/01/2017 20:51

She's got 2 children and I know on Mumsnet we like to think they have it easier and in some ways they probably do have it easier than me but if I had my life as it is now plus two nannies plus a cleaner I'd still look as rough as fuck.

Huh?

What's the point in a full complement of household and personal staff if they only 'probably' make it easier?

Don't forget the hairdresser and personal dresser.
