Do you think Kate Middleton is genuine

Great hair, smile, figure, and children...okay. Why can't she read off of an index card and truly show up for her duties?

I can't imagine how much training she must have been afforded as the future queen, and she can't seem to put it to any use?

Both Kate and William are pretty dim witted, imo. They were geography majors in college, or at least one of them was, and at one point failing. Geography!!!

Maybe, but that's what makes her good at her job. Who knows or cares if any of it is genuine, she entered into the role voluntarily and seems to be handling it as well as possible. As long as she's good to her children (who don't have a choice in their life yet), I couldn't care less what her personal relationship is with the rest of the royal family. They're all adults and she chose this life knowing full well what it would take.

Not to get into a MM vs. Kate debate, but I think other royal figures like Diana and MM just didn't full comprehend what the lifestyle would entail until it was too late. Maybe they should have known better, but I can sympathize with someone in an unsustainable situation that can't get themselves out without millions of watching eyes. I think Kate was either forethinking enough to really get it, or has the mental fortitude to deal with it, even if it's harder than she expected. The British royal family seems like an absolute nightmare, and I don't think many of us could handle the pressure any better.

I think Kate benefits from a healthy childhood and family of origin which neither Diana nor Meghan had. When time comes to tell, the Middletons will be responsible for saving the British monarchy. I do think William is wise enough to understand this.

Yes, he's wise enough to understand it, but dumb enough he won't be able to save it. I give the monarchy 1 or 2 more generations, at most. Charles is the beginning of the end, William or George will actually be the end.

Agreed. She accepts that her job is to put with anything William does.

It looks increasingly exploitative and just sad as time passes. She seems to dislike William but clings to the title OR she knows that she would get nothing in a divorce and would face a fate worse than Diana. She’s been a prominent Royal for a decade and still can’t give a speech. Whether that’s due to incompetence or stupidity, it adds a depressing quality to her appearances.

Could not disagree with you more. Her speeches are quiet and relatable. She’s obviously shy. They seem to have a really strong, loving bond and from where I sit there is literally no evidence of William treating her poorly. you can tell she is stable and really benefited from a strong family of origin.

She's not relatable to me or many other people. She comes off as a snobby ice queen who doesn't like her husband but LOVES her position in society.

Yes, she also had a striver mother who ensured there was a possibility that their paths crossed and she was primed to get his attention. Haven't you read and Jane Austin?

NP. She is genuine enough to not be able to fully hide her feelings about being married to a man who is clearly a nasty jerk.

IMO, this makes Kate even more perfect. A living Jane Austen classic.

She works very hard at projecting decorum which is a strength. However her story of dating and falling in love with William feels very fake. When they were in their 20’s he basically disrespected her and treated her like shit. She stayed and married him anyways. There was a brief lag where he seemed to improve then he was back to cheating and treating her like shit. She stays because she cares about her social standing above all else. That’s not aspirational.

She’s also been in this public persona role for over a decade and still can’t figure out how to give a speech. That’s incompetent.

She makes public missteps all the time. I can’t get the image of her laughing at the gospel choir at Meghan and Harry’s wedding out of my head. She’s too old to be so stupid. Did she really think she wouldn’t be photographed at a royal wedding?

It’s also sad that one of the most positive things that can be said about her is that she’ll put up with anything William does to cling to her title. In that sense she adds stability to the monarchy but is otherwise a terrible role model. She’s ineffective at her job and can’t promote her chosen patronage.

I guess the only fully positive thing that can be said about her is that she loves her children.

+1. A very good analysis. We teach our daughters that they should leave toxic relationships and not put up with sh&t. In that regard, Kate is the opposite of a role model. I am guessing she is not very happy in private.

You know nothing. Lol

I'm sure she can few million other moms wanted that.

What does that even mean? GMAFB.

NP, but it's pretty well accepted that she decided to go after him.

To the contrary. She was dating someone else and was in William's friend circle. She was in a charity fashion show wearing a bikini was a see through cover up when William saw her famously said "she's hot." He had to go after her. It's interesting that in Harry's book, "Spare," he said he told his friends that Meghan was "hot." The two sound at least lusty.

LOL, no way. Kate put down her deposit at a different school and just happened to decide to take a gap year after it was announced where William would attend university, then appear at the very same school? She was 100% shooting her shot. There’s nothing wrong with what she did, but don’t make it a fairy tale.

Lots of teenagers take a gap year and many change their minds about towns, schools, careers or majors.

Just like Diana, Jackie Kennedy and other divorced or widowed women, she could easily divorce William, bag a millionaire and still be queen mother.

He didn't fail geography, he was actually an art history major who switched to geography by choice. Lots of freshmen change their majors.

His brother on other hand barely finished high school and didn't go to college.

Kate and Meghan were actually good students.

[Anonymous]

Kate majored in Art History and Meghan in theater.

Apparently, Diana failed high school twice.
