Has anyone else seen this on Instagram? It's so lovely and natural. Their PR camp are hitting the right buttons! The Oprah interview now just seems so trashy in comparison!

its very nice of them to share their happiness, bless them. wish them many more 10 happy, successful years.
i watched with a smile on my face Smile ...

How dare they release a nice, family video?!

They can release dozens but the point of the release is PR. Stating that doesn't equal bitterness, it's just a fact.

Phoney PR stunt that looked like an advert for knitwear.
Still it was successful judging by some of the comments above.

HypocriteHunter · 29/04/2021 23:50

Anyone saying it is ‘cringe’ or a ‘bit cringe’ is far more cringeworthy I find.

Would you prefer people to say the video was fake, smug and patronising?

They are #making memories of their#fakefamilylife.
I bet Kate can’t stand him

I find it quite surprising. I wish them no ill will & am sure they are happy & in love. I just don't know them, they are strangers so I find the adulation odd. But then people get soap star characters tattooing on them so 🤷🏻‍♀️

Kate really doesn't look like she likes him at all nowadays.

I still don't understand why that moment in the Mary Berry video did not get cut off.

@noreenn

Gosh, what a lovely, wholesome, beautiful family they are. I aspire to be like them!
All they needed was a cool cover track and a bit of snow and it would be an early John Lewis Christmas video. Sorry Boris.

The fake stories about Willian having an affair came from a certain source

@480Widdio which source?

I still don't understand why that moment in the Mary Berry video did not get cut off.

@apooagnuandyou And what Mary Berry video? I think Kate always looks incredibly happy.

Ariannah · 30/04/2021 00:07

Felt like I was watching a modern day Marie Antoinette
I agree. No worries about social distancing. No peering out of the car windows and saying “sorry kids we can’t get out at the park/beach today, it’s too busy so it’s not safe”. Vast open spaces for their private use, while the rest of us have hardly been out for a year because everywhere is dangerously crowded.

Creamcrackersandricecakes · 30/04/2021 00:07

Aw, that's lovely.
Was his girlfriend in it??

apooagnuandyou · 30/04/2021 00:07

she is hardly going to public event or posing for official photos or videos with a face like thunder, but she's trying too hard, it looks as fake as it is.

The video where she shrugs William off. Weird moment to leave in the program.

If you are interested by the "alleged" infidelities, I would advise you to read foreign press and foreign articles. They always show and tell a lot more than our local press (even photos as neutral as the kids playing in the park with their nanny)

Ariannah · 30/04/2021 00:09

She won’t divorce him though. She wants to be Queen. And she wants their family to look happy and respectable in order to secure the future of the monarchy for her kids. Which is what I’d do too in her shoes. Lots of women put up with men to ensure a better life for their kids.

blueshoes · 30/04/2021 00:09

It is just a Boden advert, isn't it? Instagram-curated happy families.

It is amazing how could one family be so happy. I couldn't be happier to be subsidising their fabulous lifestyle. Money well spent.

Maggiesfarm · 30/04/2021 00:09

Looks natural enough to me. They probably took several and picked the best bits, as you would.

apooagnuandyou · 30/04/2021 00:10

I honestly think the royals shot themselves in the foot.

The pandemic was the best opportunity to put on a show and at least pretend they were involved and caring for the nation. Instead they took a couple of photos, had a couple of zoom meetings, they disregarded all the guidelines about "staying home" and social distancing, and proved how little they matter and how useless and outdated the whole concept is.

Dongdingdong · 30/04/2021 00:12

Hmmm. I’m sure her mask would slip a heck of a lot more if she was unhappy. And as others have said, I’m sure she’s not that great an actress either! Her happiness seems very genuine to me.

She worked too hard to divorce him, and she is safe thanks to her children.

It must be draining to be stuck with someone you dislike though, but maybe they don't actually see each other that much when there's no camera around.

The only "job" they have is to smile and wave in front of the camera, it's not that hard. Most people have to put on a face at work and they are stuck there for the entire day.

She's not on Big Brother, she's out in public a couple of hours a week at most! Anyone can keep a happy face!

Just look around you, most people manage to have a "happy' face for the duration of their work day, all 8 to 10 hours of it.

PurpleRainDancer · 30/04/2021 00:18

@DeusEx

I thought it was incredibly cringe and posey. Looked like a Biden advert.
Biden or Boden?
HypocriteHunter · 30/04/2021 00:20

So she is managing to fake a happy face?if you say so.

She will be in good company with the one faking the victim face.

why that constant need to create some kind of competition against the 2 women exactly? It doesn't bring any positive towards Kate, and bringing Meghan in there makes you look silly.

What do you mean if I say so? Confused Is it acceptable to look pissed off where you work?

apooagnuandyou · 30/04/2021 00:29

Any normal couple put on a happy face when invited somewhere, even if they just had the worst row or had serious family problems. That's what normal people do. I am puzzled why it's such a discovery for some posters that people, royals included, don't advertise their feelings in public - especially when being scrutinised by the public or the press.

I cant' think of many celebrities looking pissed off or upset on a red carpet either (unless it was an effect to fit the image they wanted to project).

Is it likely an official video made by a professional would show Kate rolling her eyes, William picking his nose or scratching his crotch, or one of the kids asking for a poo or kicking their siblings? 😂
