100% correct. She was all set to go to Edinburgh, which is a superior university to St. Andrews, and was not planning a gap year until Carole heard about William's plans. Kate even went to the same gap year organization and location as William but several months apart. Carole didn't become discreet about William until after Kate started dating him. She openly talked about getting her girls into the toff, ultra-wealthy circles. Parents from Marlborough College where Kate went for upper school heard about the move to St. Andrews on this basis. Even if she didn't land William, the other men in his circle were part of Carole's targets. I think one of Pippa's old boyfriends also spilled too.

Honestly, if I was presented with the same opportunity... probably do the same thing.

You'd send your daughter to stalk about in another country as a teenager and then make her transfer colleges (delaying her development) to pursue a man and encourage her to wait him out a further 9 years while he dumped her at every turn?

Ultimately ending up with a spouse that doesn't respect her and cheats on her frequently?

pure speculation. no one knows what the motives of KMs college choices were, and frankly if you're stupid enough to believe that just following some guy around will cause them to fall in love and marry you then i have a bridge to sell you

Lovely.

Anonymous wrote:I think it's ridiculous to call Meghan a social climber and opportunist after Kate basically planned her life to catch William. Meghan was introduced to Harry by chance, there's no way she could have predicted she'd be where she is now. Kate did everything but strip naked and throw herself at William...oh wait, she did do that, didn't she?

Girls:

Helena (Victoria's daughter)
Caroline (this would be a nice homage to Charles, but maybe too close to Charlotte)
Amelia (George III's favorite daughter)
Adelaide (William IV's wife)
Augusta (another G3 daughter)
Sophia (another G3 daughter)
Matilda (daughter of Henry II)
Eleanor (the infamous of Aquitaine)

I've seen Grace mentioned, but I haven't seen Margaret. I like Margaret, personally. Isabella has royal connotations (wife of King John). too.

Boys:

Arthur (Victoria's son, also Duke of Wellington)
Philip (obvious)
James (I wouldn't do this, neither James was a great king)
Edmund (many)
Stephen (of Blois)

Others: Lionel, Thomas, Humphrey, even John (though, again ... not a good ruler)

I LOVE this name. It’s perfect! Princess Sapphire. It sounds so sophisticated and royal.

It sounds like a stripper name.

No it doesn’t. It’s a beautiful name fit for a British Royal. I think the Queen would love it - it pays homage to her royal jewels and the country.

No it doesn’t reflect on Meghan, it reflects on the racism of the posters who seem to think that because she’s a women of color she’ll give her child some ridiculous name. I don’t recall any suggestions of “Sapphire or Destiny” when Kate’s spawn were due.

It’s not a color thing, but KM projects “classy” and “lady” while Meghan projects “phony” and “climber.”

PP, you forgot fake and hypocritical.

Or they're racist. I just reported a poster who thought she should name the baby something insulting.
