[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will say that William has made a tremendously good choice of a wife.  Without knowing anything about what their relationship is like behind closed doors, he never had to worry for one minute whether she's a good fit for this life.  She's a great asset to him and the crown in exactly the way she needs to be.  [/quote]

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

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?[/quote]

[b]Kate comes from a background that prepared her for this type of life[/b].[/quote]

She does not. She was upper middle class. Her parents owned a party supply business and had modest beginnings- [b]her mother was an airline attendant.[/b] 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. [/quote]

I think that is what the poster meant.. Kate's mom probably was always controlling her weight obsessively as this is what the job calls for. When  you are attendant you need to be within certain weight limit... or at least that was thing in the past. So the comment was NOT without a merit and did NOT have to imply aristocratic bacground.[/quote]

Nonsense. All the pictures of Kate from her college days and while dating William show her at a healthy weight.[/quote]

Please. It was obvious that Kate’s parents were desperately pushing her to marry well. They sent her to the same school as William. When he transferred, she followed. This was before they even dated. I can only imagine the type of pressure they put on her to get his attention.

This is such a tired argument. They've been married for TEN YEARS. They've known each other more than half their lives. They have three children together. From what we see, they look pretty happy together. Maybe they are not, maybe they are, but I don't get why people go on and on about how evil or cunning Kate was/is. Can't you see the misogyny? What, did she just decide it was going to happen and Will had no say in the matter? Or she broke him down or she ensnared him with her magical sex prowess?

And... no one transferred. In fact, it wasn't released where William was going until just before school started. [/quote]

ITA. Thank you for the breath of rationality in this thread.[/quote]
