Kate is doing something with the scouts on Thursday.
I guess we will see her in Dubarry plus some chunky outdoorsy boots.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 24/03/2019 10:42

Here’s The Season for 2019
Will probably see a lot of Anne’s family for the horsey events.
Definite senior royals for order of the Garter, Trooping the Colour.
Also Chelsea Flower show. Kate has a garden so will hopefully have a new summery frock.

Meghan has got to be on maternity leave now. It feels like she has been pregnant for ever

La Hanbury’s husband is rumoured to be having a similar close friendship with a journalist which I guess is why it’s all over the place (& why I think unfortunately it’s probably correct). Has been doing the rounds for a few months.

does anyone know when the lindo wing is shut? Don't they put out some kind of road closure announcement that could give us a clue?

strangerthongs · 24/03/2019 11:00

I hope she does what kate does and not care about her post baby look in front of newspapers..

PurplePiePete
Intriguing post.
And other posters just ignored it.
As in 'let's talk about something else and pretend we didn't notice somebody just dropped a bombshell' Hmm

TSSDNCOP · 24/03/2019 11:17

Yeah alright bean, more like we just weren't getting hooked by the "rumour"

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 24/03/2019 11:31

A little glimpse of Lena Tindall

Horsemad · 24/03/2019 12:25

How is Lena pronounced - Leena or Layna?

Wildcate · 24/03/2019 12:44

Layna

SevenSeasofRye · 24/03/2019 12:47

@Curly Zara and Mike live at Gatcome with Princess Anne. They have their own accommodation. They previously lived in Cheltenham.

If William has fd around, If this is all true, Kate is not someone to be messed with.

I'm not convinced, she waited around for him for long enough so I reckon she'll put up with a lot.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 24/03/2019 13:14

I think Kate is in a much stronger position now she is married. However I doubt whether she’ll divorce, just bring William into line

SevenSeasofRye · 24/03/2019 13:21

I really can't believe how many people are swallowing the DM hogwash. There is not a shred of evidence William is 'playing around'. It's the usual bile and vitriol that the DM specialises in.

Horsemad · 24/03/2019 13:26

Thanks Wildcate 🙂

HelloToMyKitty · 24/03/2019 13:39

Kate’s family is not to be messed with. Do you know how hard Carole worked for this Grin

Tbh the way it’s getting front page press points to someone in a certain kind of knowledgeable position. If I were a betting woman, I’d say it came from the Middleton side as a warning to William.

Rose wouldn’t want to see herself in the press like this, and William doesn’t deign to work with the press. Not sure Haz and Meg would be in the position to leak something of this nature.

EstrellaDamn · 24/03/2019 14:03

I don't know where in all these threads we started to have the 'Kate is tough as boots' as a narrative but I don't buy it.

She hung around for years to be allowed to marry him and hasn't put a single foot wrong since. She's demonstrated absolute pliability since day one - she's not going to upend it for anything. She doesn't have a spine of steel at all - quite the opposite in my mind.

brizzlemint · 24/03/2019 14:05

I don't believe anything is going on other than the DM laying off Meghan for some reason (presumably they want a chance of decent baby photos) but if it was the Royal Family are going to be the ones who call the shots and not the Middletons.

Horsemad · 24/03/2019 14:08

Maybe there is an element of truth and this has caused the (alleged) rift between the brothers - perhaps H can't stomach any (alleged) infidelity? 🤔

LuciaSpain · 24/03/2019 14:14

Estrella, I agree, Kate will tow the line.

I can't imagine Harry would knowingly leak something, that would be the end of him and William.

The press are saying plenty but nothing at all, perhaps they are afraid of William suing.

megletthesecond · 24/03/2019 14:29

I think the tabloids are just going after the Cambridges as even they can't be seen to poke holes at a heavily pregnant woman.

user1457017537 · 24/03/2019 14:47

I can’t see the tabloids just going after the Cambridge’s though, it is after all just gossip and innuendo. It is plain nasty.

SlipperOrchid · 24/03/2019 14:58

For goodness sake who suggested Harry or Meghan went to the press. That is too ridiculous for words. Everything always comes out in the end. If William has been screw-in g around, as he may feel is his entitlement, it would eventually have come out.

As for steely Kate, more nonsense. She will put up with whatever and her children will be her oriority whatever happens.

itswinetime · 24/03/2019 15:09

this again? Is this the new weekend discussion topic until Baby Sussex comes?

LuciaSpain · 24/03/2019 15:13

Someone on here recently said that the press had something last summer but the Cambridges managed to keep a lid on it.

Maybe the press do have morals and are leaving meghan be.
