If you are naturally skinny to the point where your bones are poking out and your face is sunken, you should probably gain a few pounds. Your body will thank you when you are older.

Terrible that women think it's okay to comment on another woman's body. You never know what someone is going through. Thyroid or other health issues, mental issues causing severe stress, etc. It's just as nasty to call her anorexic as it is to call an overweight person names and labels.

Absolutely. Let's imagine the reaction if this was a thread about public figures or actresses who could stand to lose some weight - you know, for "their health." Some women are unbelievably hypocritical.

Kate Middleton looks great, she honestly does. I think there's a whole bunch of wishful thinking going on here, by women who only wish there was something wrong with her so they could feel better about themselves.

If you're so gaunt that the skin is drooping off your face at 33, you have a problem.

Serious question: what are you even talking about? Her skin isn't "drooping off her face"! What a bizarre comment. She looks beautiful.

If you look at pictures of her mom in fitted clothes and jeans, you can see she is skinnier than most US teenagers.

Pippa is more petite than Kate.

Her brother is built just like Kate, VERY thin, lanky and straight.

It's the genes ladies. Kate Middleton and the rest of her family was slapped with the skinny stick thanks to mom.

She is built like her siblings, especially her brother.

Exactly. I come from a skinny family as well. It's just how we're built. Clearly some posters here can't stand the thought of people being effortlessly thin.

I said that. Anorexia as a disorder has nothing to do with weight. Extreme thinness is sometimes but not always a symptom. Anorexia is a mental disorder/illness that at its core is about control, not weight loss. You start out feeling like you're a master of self control, but in the end, it controls you, not the other way around. I don't think Kate is there yet. I think she's still in the driver's seat. But she is playing a dangerous game, especially considerlong how little control she must feel she has in other areas of her life.

Severely restricting your diet does not make you an anorexic or have an eating disorder. Again, this is wishful thinking on your part.

Would you call an otherwise healthy vegan anorexic?

How about people like me who shun junk food and packaged foods. Sure in the context of a standard American diet, you can call that a severe restriction. I call that not wanting to eat crap.

And that amount of weight does not just fall off. She must have worked hard.

I am a very thin person. At my peak weight in college, I weighed 22 pounds more than my regular weight (the weight I weighed in high school and after college). In college, I ate disgusting food at all hours and drank like a fish. When I stopped doing those things and introduced even a small amount of exercise after graduation (2-3x per week group exercise classes), the weight did in fact fall off. Because my natural body type is thin. But it turns out when I drink gallons of beer and eat ice cream every day and pizza at midnight 3-4x a week after a full dinner, I gain weight. Shocking!!!

I have maintained my lower weight for 20 years and through 2 kids (pregnancy excluded) easily. I don't eat a restricted diet in the least and I don't work out like crazy either.

I know this is deeply annoying to people, but she probably is just a thin person.

You clearly don't understand what food restriction means in the context that the PP was talking about. It's not about picking and choosing what KINDS of food you eat. It's about restricting ALL types of food. Or in some cases eating food, but doing so at dangerously low levels of caloric intake. Vegan/healthy food choices do not apply here.

Now this is straight up delusion. You havent seen the pictures of her face posted in this thread? Her skin is drooping down, causing gauntness and hollowness under her cheekbones. That's not even talking about the pronounced wrinkles on her forehead and by her eyes that I would more expect to see on a 60 year old than someone her age.

She looks pretty skeletal. Harry is hot.

60? Come on. 40, maybe.

Okay, so you're basically calling her an anorexic. How exactly do you know that she restricts ALL foods?

She is way to thin for a thirty something mother of two.
In university she was average size and usually people get thinner when older.

I haven't read the entire thread but has anyone noticed Rachel Weiz and Daniel Craig holding hands (in a bizarre behind Daniel's back) while he's talking to the royal family? I know they are married, but it strikes me as high school clingy.

She always had a svelte figure. She is looking slimmer because of the style of her clothes and her shoes.

I think she looks very good. Very glamourous and has amazing smile, hair and figure. She does not take bad pictures.

Now, I will say that I hate her bangs.

I agree with OP and sadly think she looks unhealthy. I definitely do not think every thin or even skinny person is anorexic. I have several family members and friends who are not much bigger than her, but look so much healther. It's something about the bony-ness - reminds me of people in college with EDs. If you look at Pippa, she is roughly the same size but much less bony.

I, too, am naturally thin and come from a family of thin people. After my second child, while both breast feeding and eating incredible volumes of food (I still remember the Honeybaked ham I devoured practically by myself), I was rail thin. At about the one month mark, I was back to pre-pregnancy weight, though I had done no exercise. People commented all the time on how they couldn't believe I had just had a baby. I say all this not to brag, but to point out that those of us with naturally thin builds are not going to gain weight - it's genetics. Although I desperately wanted to be like the "curvier" girls in high school, I've come to embrace my build and feel fortunate that weight gain isn't something I need to worry about. Now, if only my eyesight was better...

I've seen all of the pictures posted on this thread, and here's another very recent one for you: http://www.vanityfair.com/style/2015/11/kate-middleton-prince-william-facebook-twitter-cyberbullying. There is no skin hanging off her face! Talk about delusion. Post a picture of yourself so we can tell you what's wrong with your face.
