Completely agree. She’s perfect. I don’t know that she’s made one misstep as his wife.

Yep. She knows her place.

Yes -- she knows her place in history! On the throne as future Queen of Great Britain and the Commonwealth. Yes, we love the Duchess of Cambridge. She was extremely close to Prince Philip and is taking cues from his extraordinary life for her future role as consort.

Jesus that's some enthusiasm. Obviously not a time to dig up skeletons in his closet but once the dust has settled please explore more deeply some of the choices he made. She will not be following those leads.

You mean the lead of sleeping with the Queen's cousin Princess Alexandra for 2 decades, then the Countess of Mountbatten for another 2 decades, and a slew of actresses before-and-between them?

No, Kate won't be doing that. She'll be doing what she does now - waiting at whichever home William deems appropriate while he spends time with his mistress.

Of course that'll be easier when she's finally Princess of Wales and they can hop between the 5 homes owned by the Duchy of Cornwall.

I hope you are British or at least from the Commonwealth countries. If not, the level of enthusiasm you have for a monarchy that has nothing to do with you - and if you are American, your forefathers bled and died to be free from - is supremely creepy.

Oh, sorry to disappoint. Did I trigger you?

Who wouldn't want to emulate Prince Philip's life of service? He was a beloved leader -- kind, funny and respected for being a good human being. He was a legitimate WWII hero who saved his crew and ship from destruction. He was patron of nearly 1000 charities in his lifetime. His Duke of Edinburgh Awards -- which he spearheaded and promoted -- have seen over 8 million young people worldwide set goals to challenge themselves and accomplish their goals.

Who wouldn't wait to leave such a legacy when they die?

You know Charles' Prince Trust blows the Duke of Edinburgh Awards out of the water right? In terms of accomplishments, number of individuals helped, and direct receivables.

Do you want to emulate him?

Agree. She looks absolutely regal. Like a future Queen.

She's made plenty of missteps early on, but they were innocuous. No weight in the skirt, working too little, that sort of thing, but you never had to worry about her doing something hurt the Crown. She really understands her job and she embraces it wholeheartedly. If she has private disagreements with her role, we'll never know.

I mean hell will freeze over before Kate goes to Oprah, know what I'm saying?

+1 Kate exudes class. There are some posters here who neither appreciate nor even know what that looks like and prefer a little tackiness.

Kate comes from a background that prepared her for this type of life.

That's because her personal hell is public speaking.

Look she's very pretty, but she's about as useless as Queen Sofia of Spain or Melania Trump and we all see how that turned out (former King had over 100 mistresses during their marriage + was forced to abdicate after the last one and Melania is back to wearing her pretty couture dresses at Mar-A-Lago).

The Queen doesn't have to do anything to 'hurt the Crown' - just have to dress appropriately and try to keep the stupidity to the minimum. Its the King you have to watch out for.

Disagree. I’ve seen other pictures and she looks just as thin.

From reputable sources?

DP. Here are the original pictures on Getty Images. She's just as thin in the original shots. And the photographer is the husband of Kate's personal dresser so he has no bias.

Getty is literally the source for all major newspapers worldwide to run their media content from. If you don't know something - just say it.

He cheats on her.

There’s no proof. That’s tabloid nonsense.

Her hands look like she is 70.

I know, if she was a teen at school, someone would be screaming health problems.

She does not. She was upper middle class. Her parents owned a party supply business and had modest beginnings- her mother was an airline attendant. She was certainly not an aristocrat like Diana. However she is complete grace- never a hair out of place, always behaves in a way befitting of her title. She is a wonderful asset to the crown, as much as it pains me to imagine what compromise/sacrifice that requires of her, particularly as a woman, in her life and marriage.

hahaha.. NO you took my comment the wrong way. I know perfectly well what Getty is and this is why I said.. game changer.
Because as I was reading through the thread the comments accusing the photos being doctored and so on..
the moment I saw Getty trademark and the author and clicked to check it is on their website
I said "game changer"

because just deflated the arguments of those who tried to trash the source.

You say that but plenty of women in this family have hurt the Crown.

I don't understand your reference to Queen Sofia or Melania Trump. William isn't about to abdicate or go to Mar-a-Lago. Kate is assured of her position for as long as she cares to have it. She produced three healthy children to keep the line of succession going. She has public engagements now and a pet cause too. She is a supportive presence when her husband needs her. I mean she's never going to set the world on fire but it seems like this particular family has had enough of firesetters, know what I mean? It's a relief to have someone in the role with zero scandal potential.
