Does anyone else think Catherine looks unhappy these days? Her smile seems forced and she looks like she has lost her sparkle.

No, she looks poised, self-assured, and content. She is really coming into her own.

Skybluepinky · 09/05/2023 12:06

No

I think the frequent threads about her looking tired and unhappy are blatant shit stirring

possiblh wanted to deviate into a gossipy bitch fest on their marriage .

If so, tattle is that way ➡️

I notice the OP hasn't returned.

Maybe didn't get the responses she had hoped for?

WimpoleHat · 09/05/2023 12:12

I would feel stressed if I had to control my child while 100 million people were watching world wide!

Absolutely. It must be very stressful just being there on that basis, kids or not - being in charge of small kids in that scenario must be horrendous…

midsomermurderess · 09/05/2023 12:12

She’s been in the role for over a decade now and I think she looks more confident than ever, with a slight don’t mess with me glint in her eye.

FMLWTF · 09/05/2023 12:17

I think she looks incredible actually. She exudes calmness and grace under fire. I cannot imagine the manoeuvres behind the scenes but she makes a very good show it all being easy. The pressure would do most of us in I think. She’s the right person for the job. She’s made it her own and I think when she and William take over they will be very popular.

Can you imagine a life where your every look or appearance is judged in this way? Same yesterday with Meghan - either looking pregnant or emaciated depending on the poster. 🤷‍♀️
Im not a huge fan of the royals, but so what if she looked tired? What business is it of yours, OP? And why single her out?
She wasn’t the only one who looked tired on Saturday. Almost all the ‘working’ royals looked stressed and tired on Saturday morning. They all looked demonstrably more relaxed once it was all over.

Three nice children and a lifestyle most of us could only dream about - I'm sure any stress can only be short-lived.

LadyWiddiothethird · 09/05/2023 12:18

No.

tigger2022 · 09/05/2023 12:20

She looks very relaxed these days

ThePoshUns · 09/05/2023 12:21

No not at all

Whenharrymetsmelly · 09/05/2023 12:25

Not at all, her smilee always looks genuine. She does however look alarmingly thin

To be fair Tattle is a lot less bitchy than some of the threads on here over the last couple of days, especially about the Royal Family

OP to answer your question I agree with others, she looks perfectly fine. Keen to see what you would look like with the eyes of the world on you, waiting for you and your family to mess up

JenniferBarkley · 09/05/2023 12:27

I would be very tense if I had to attend something like the coronation where I would be filmed and analysed the world over.

Add in my small children and I would be... let's say frazzled.

I thought she looked very calm.

Hotfootgoose · 09/05/2023 12:28

No idea where you get that from OP. If I had to control my three kids in front of a live audience I would have only half a head of hair!

Inkpotlover · 09/05/2023 12:29

Not at all! She looked a bit pensive at times during the Coronation because not only did she literally have to stand on ceremony but she had to make sure her three children did too, including a five-year-old. That would've made anyone tense!

But on the walkabout on Sunday morning and yesterday at the scout hut she looked happy and relaxed.

Spectre8 · 09/05/2023 12:31

She definitely must of been tired as pics showed she had bags under her eyes which isn't usual.

Otherwise she appeared like anyone else I se eon the street, looking normal or being normal. Wouldbt say she was anything else more than that

Womencanlift · 09/05/2023 12:36

OP obviously looking for click bait for the latest junk article they are writing

Not went the way you thought eh

BanditsOnTheHorizon · 09/05/2023 12:36

I think she looks very relaxed and happy these days, almost like she's got into the swing of things. Her kids are growing up, no more babies to look after. It was about that time when my youngest was 5 I could see light at the end of the tunnel.

I'd have been shitting myself having millions of eyes on me and my kids at the coronation, then attend a concert and the day after another visit planned (scouts centre I think) - I'd be knackered in her shoes.

Several friends mentioned it over the weekend and it was also mentioned at work earlier. Obviously mumsnet doesn't agree 🤣

But of course.

WheelsUp · 09/05/2023 12:52

I would be stressed too. Lots of nastiness from Sussex Squad about Louis and the Wales' were late (or was Charles early?) which is a faux pas.

Sure they did 😂

steff13 · 09/05/2023 12:58

I thought she looked stressed and worn out at the coronation, but she probably was. I can't imagine having to worry about all the stuff I had to do plus three little kids. And we all know Louis is a loose cannon. 😂Other than that, I think she seems fine.

Viviennemary · 09/05/2023 13:02

No I think she looks fine. I don't like forced fake toothpaste advert smiles.
