Thread: William and Kate: engagement and relationship rumours and musings 2009 - Page 48 - The Royal Forums

Also because she genuinely cares about William and doesn't want to hurt him by revealing private information to the public, I hope. Having a loyal partner is a huge asset for a royal, I think, and so far Kate seems to be that.

Please correct me if im wrong ...Of course he would ask for approval but just out of respect at this point. btw after all this time my opinion is if the Queen or PC did not approve she would have been long gone.......IMHO AsI said in my post he needs either the consent of the Queen or of Parliament. To get the...

They were engaged in February and married in July. The papers gave Diana extremely good press, perhaps in part because she was never rude to them and in part because they seemed to fall for her themselves. She was so young and sweet-faced and "nice", and she loved working with children and was known to make money scrubbing floors and doing housework. So there was an element of Cinderella about the whole thing, too. I think...

Sorry auntie, I wasn´t answering your post really, just thinking out loud about the waiting time. ParisJ is in Australia so no doubt the time zones interfere a lot with questions and answers and he will answer your question soon. I have no idea what Maxima did before she married but Mary was working and has a law degree and I have heard praise from Danes about the dedication and hard work she has put into learning Danish, which for her was a...

I agree I do not want a woman like Kate as my Queen. But if she makes William happy, I can just hope she does her job to a certain degree of honour.

Why 2011 is out .... 2011 Will be the year Prince Philip Duke of Edinburgh celebrates his 90TH BIRTHDAY with a full year of celebrations and royal events. I just cannot see William marrying in that year and taking the attention away from the grandfather he adores. I might be wrong but I thought 2011 the Queen wants that to be Prince Philip's year to thank him for all his service over the years. A 90th birthday is a big round of...

Ya that's what I think too I'd be weird for them to announce it if they don't plan on marrying till after the SAR but I'd be excited as hell if they did , I have a feeling the board will crash the day it's announced. I'd be shocked if by now they weren't even just mentally engaged cause if we aren't anywhere close to heading down that road I don't see a reason for the relationship to continue so...

That's strange for me. I remember that Brits like Kate very much at the beginning. When they graduated, she worked for Jigsaw company and press write only good about her. People hope they marry soon, however I was sceptical (they're both 24 then). One day I read on one polish site news that Brits and Queen are angry becouse Kate give up her job. I was suprised. I went to english sites and was a little shock when I saw what they write...
