You are so delusional it’s kind of funny.

Who are you to say what “people” want?

I live in London and the people range from disinterested to thinking they are lazy tossers.

Every single person who buys tabloids or People magazine to read about her, who visits websites to see whether she wore what tiara and which jewels with a certain designer gown, and all those stores that sell out of every single piece of clothing that she wears in public or puts on her kids, along with the toys her kids might play with.

That is all she needs to do and people will be happy with her.

She is beautiful like Diana, but not crazy. She is normal and relatable, and with the help of nannies or not, presents the most normal image of a mom as the British royals have ever seen.

She does her job quite well, and most people expect nothing more from her, especially here in America.

DP. You are so defensive of Kate, it's fascinating. Do you identify with her somehow? I'm curious why you are so panicked at even the mildest concept of criticism of Kate.

Who are you? What's your story? I am curious.

+1 And please stop speaking of what WE want. Most of us have two brain cells to run together and could care less about what toys she buys. Sorry you’re upset but this is the Entertainmen and Pop Culture forum so we can discuss celebrities however we like.

NP. How on Earth do you know what the "vast majority of people" want?

Because this is the Entertainment forum. Looking at work charts and talking about British tax payers money is the opposite of entertaining.

Bingo.

We want to be entertained by tiaras and wedding dress pictures, and photo ops of Meghan, Kate, the kids and hot Prince Harry.

Nothing more.

Not lectures and Camilla and work charts.

Those of us who agree with you, pp ( I'm one of them) need to stop responding to anyone who talks about the Duchess or Prince William being lazy. Or we could respond to the posts by saying "I love Princess Charlotte's new Christmas dress!" If we don't add fire to their flames than they can't argue with anyone. Or they will look really silly.

Let's try it!

DP. I actually do want to know how much work Kate has done. I’m American. I don’t care about her clothing

Then start a thread in the jobs forum.

Agree with the pp, why are you so invested? Why do you care SO much?

Why do you care SO much that I care? I think they are lazy and over privileged for nothing.

Which is why there are so few monarchies left. A lot of people agree. However, the Royal family brings in a lot of revenue via merchandise sales, tourism pounds, etc etc which has been pointed out numerous times. So if they actually do earn their keep, then what? What do you think should happen here if they don't act more grateful? And if you aren't British you are spending a lot of time spinning your wheels on something that has no affect on your life.

A lot of British people say they respect the queen but only the queen. So once she passes if Charles and William don't step it up I could see them abolishing it.

Maybe Will and Kate don't really care. They will still be wealthy and can lead more normal lives without the burden and expectations they currently have. So if they don't care, why should a bunch of Americans worry about it?

You may well be correct but the level of personal wealth, while still sizeable by most estimates (mostly from Diana's and Queen Mother's bequests), it pales in comparison to the costs of the lifestyle that the lead. I doubt they want to give that up.

Agreed - you only have to look at the Royal hanger-ons and deposed family descendants to see that. The Russians sold all of their tiaras and jewelry within two generations (so that's basically George ringing up Sothebys) and the Greeks - ha the 'Crown Prince' lives in New York with five kids and affording private school for all of them is them doing well. He had to marry a wealthy American heiress to make sure to keep up with lifestyle but anything super-lavish is gone. The sisters of the current Spanish King are basically broke, one was indicted in a court trial for stealing $5 million from the Spanish public. She had to sell their home to pay fees and is currently living in Switzerland since Spain has the weird thing about non-members of the immediate royal family staying in their palaces.

Basically William and Kate would walk away with about $20 million, Charles with $50 million etc. However none of the houses they currently live in except Balmoral and Sandringham are owned by the family itself so they've to buy property or go live in Kate's parents house. Then there's security - British public might be generous and give it to them for a term of a 2-4 years or they just might strip it entirely. Do you know how much private security for a family of five is - at least 7-figures a year.

Housing and security would just be the basic needs. William is a lazy ass fool for letting the public even think of tossing him out.

This. Thank you for outlining this.

Wills and Kate are not only lazy but super foolish to not realize how their apathy towards their duties will jeapordize the BRF and the monarchy itself.

The only reason William can afford to goof off with his silly helicopter gig is because of the goodwill his hardworking grandmother has with the public. Once she passes there will no longer be the umbrella of protection the Queen's hard work and reputation afforded them.

Out on the street will Prince Charmless and lazy-katy go.

Go chat up some fellow Londoners then. The “people” in DC like the dresses and the cute kids and that’s enough for us.

DP. You are so weird with your on high pronouncements of what the people.in DC want. Truly bizarre.

You really think anyone around here cares how much the royals “work”? Really?
