Her Royal Highness Catherine Elizabeth, Duchess of Cambridge, Countess of Strathearn, Baroness Carrickfergus. This is the complete title of Kate Middleton. Before marrying William, who was the second in the line of succession to the throne of England, for the press Catherine was simply “waiting Katie.” But we all know that patience is a virtue, that hope is the last thing you lose, and so forth. A bourgeois by birth, in her family tree Kate can list also some miners exploited by her spouse’s ancestors. It’s understood that this remark is all but divisive: it rather shows how love triumphs even after centuries of social hostilities.
Chance had no role in the encounter between William and Kate. It was all planned, thanks to two cunning parents, driven by the ambition of the bourgeoisie, which has always been, as the poet put it, the motor of the “magnificent and progressive fate.” Besides being the story of William and Kate, this is the story of Michael and Carol Middleton and of their solid marriage.
Both former British Airways employees, Michael and Carol manage to build up a highly remunerative business with a simple but effective idea: selling party pieces online. Once they reached the first level of social success, money, time came for climbing the social ladder. They were lucky enough to have two rather attractive daughters: one in particular, Kate, was prince William’s same age, so why not have her enrolled at St Andrews, the same college attended by His Royal Highness? The two students soon become friends and Carol urges her daughter to take part to as much social event as she can. A transparent and revealing dress will do the rest: Kate wears it at a fashion show that she knows William will be attending.
Is that true, profound love between two youngsters? Are feelings triumphing over centuries of combined marriages? That we don’t know. What we know is that Carol and Michael Middleton were smart enough to have a coat of arms designed for Kate when she was still nubile: “A shield parted in blue and red, crossed by a golden chevron, two silvery chevrolets, and decorated with three golden acorn sprigs.” And if one looks at it, it gives the impression of an old coat of arms, but it can’t certainly date back to more than five years ago and was probably made with Adobe Illustrator, a recent invention that, compared to the glorious history of monarchy, reveals its earthly rather than divine mechanisms.
The piling up of dusts and the spread of legends render sacred what rich, ambitious, and canny people like the Middletons imagined as visible emblem of their power. You can become an aristocrat as well as a princess. Give Carol and Michael a few more years and they will surprise you again: if necessary they will develop a posh accent, will learn to sit at a table more elegantly than Prince Charles, and to ride a horse like Zara Phillips, grand daughter of the Queen and silver medal at the last London Olympics.
To sum up: lots of sacrifice, some good ideas, and, especially, unflinching determination can make you earn millions of pounds. Then, you will be able to grant a future to your kids, having them study in the best schools of the kingdom. But in the end what really makes the difference is to model half-naked in front of the heir to the throne. And if the duchess after years of expensive college still displays some orthographic uncertainties, as it would attest a thank you letter Kate sent to Wimbledon’s All England Club in 2008; if culture is not on the top of her list of priorities, nor in the second position, well, it does not matter. Does this remind you of some people in the Italian cabinet, some former showgirl with a degree? Or some former dental assistant turned city counselor? Modern princess or parvenue? We’ll talk about it in one of our next posts.

What a petty person you are making up rubbish because someone has done better than you. Hiding behind your keyboard while you libel a family
Please have a seat! It’s already out in the open and has been for a while that this family is nothing but a social climbing mess that is the equivalent to the Kardashians (notice how Kate & Pippa were called The Wisteria Sisters when they were STILL at school!). Carol is the equivalent of Kris Jenner who essentially pimped out Kate. Kate is Kim who is the cash cow so to speak for now with no real accomplishments and did nothing but wait around for 10 yrs (& please no BULLSHIT about her working for her parents or working at Jigsaw b/c one is a laugh & the other she worked 3 days a week (where do they do that at in the real world) as a Sales Associate or something apparently & NOT a buyer & STILL quit to be with William’s beck and call girl along with canceling on a charity rowing event AT THE LAST MINUTE!) like a complete doormat but still managed to get the ring from William b/c go figure no one else wanted him or the nuisance that comes along with being a part of the BRF. Pippa on the other hand is like Khloe but with no ring. The brother is just a complete weirdo & the Uncle is a COMPLETE sleaze bag who deals in drugs and prostitution of young girls! Of course that leaves the father who’s like Bruce Jenner the ONLY one that seems to possess the least bit of common sense and decorum! Let’s hope he’s as blessed as Bruce and can in the end get a divorce!
Couldn´t agree more Penny. There is also the little matter of course about the surrogacy and kate never being pregnant. That foam bump moved around so much I got giddy. So many other signs also that there was no pregnancy. So much info on it internet-wide So where does that leave us with the legitimacy of the heir to the throne. If kate did not deliver the child then he is not eligible to inherit, and of course in that event we have no firm knowledge of his genetic make-up. This whole situation is a total disaster and leaves so many unanswered questions. These questions need answers, and all I can see right now is the royals burying their heads in the sand about it all. The christening was a PR disaster, any fool cold see the queen did not want to be there. The photos were laughable, and photoshopped to the hilt. Interesting that the eyes of the baby were photoshopped by the official photographer too, why? Interesting.
Cathy has done better than us ?
She wears high street , I wear designer.
She has not jewels except and engagement ring and a Cartier necklace. Even I have more than this.
She has a husband that does not appear to want to be seen with her………….not jealous there
I married for love, Katie married for title,money and celebrity status…………..not jealous there
My husband loves me and William ?…………………………..not jealous, doubt the marriage will last.
She is funded by us, so we do have a say. She was disrespectful of us laughing at the Cenotaph.
Katie Nichols researched that Waity stalked William years before St Andrews
Well, what have you DONE, not what have you and hubby put on the credit cards. I wear “high street”, so what?
What would you know, and what do you judge as being better? Using people to raise your standing? Having no dignity, class, or respect for others? I’m thinking you had a mother just like Carole Middleton…tsk tsk tsk…how pitiful and sad.
Wow, what a bunch of Jealous bitties here, goodness gracious. If you aren’t Personal friends with the Middletons, how would any of you know what your talking about……..only through gossip. You all seem to don’t understand something…………..you can not make someone love you, you can’t force Love. William loves her period or he would have moved on…………he choice her not any of you. So if you want to be royal go find a royal and marry them.
Why would any of us want to be jealous of all the Kate sugars? None of you seems to have the ability to string together an original thought, let alone write it correctly. Oh, but whoops, that would take something called “work”, and that’s only left to those not living off Mommy and Daddy or a man they’ve snagged, huh? Get over yourself, honey, I’m too busy with my life to worry about you deluded little brats.
If your so darn busy in your life then why did you respond to my comment? I don’t sugar anyone and I sure in the hell am not jealous of being a royal or not. That goes for those of you who write comments that show your jealous of W/C.
No sweetheart, he married her b/c NO ONE ELSE WANTED TOO!!!
Tell me, are you personal friends of either? I doubt it and I am sure either of them could have married some else if they wanted to. You are sure acting like a very jealous person, please go find a prince and marry him and then you can be royal. Being royal is just an accident of birth unless you marry one. After all none of us have a choice of who our parents are when we are born do we?
elizabethmclaughline42 Do you know the family? Why so judgmental about what people think of waitie katie. We can´t all be wrong, and facts peak for themselves. She is lazy, cares nothing for other people, stalked bill middleton for years. And yes, Penny is correct, Bill middleton couldn´t get anyone else. Who would want to join forces with the Windsor family. Plus he is lazy, petulant and childish, just to name a few. She might, just might love him, more like the status, title and money though, but he sure does not love her. As for the surrogacy stunt, the lazy duo must think we are stupid not to notice any of that fake pregnancy. Jealous of her, not one bit. And poster Mysha, who on earth says she buys her designer things on credit card, and even if she does, it is her money. She was merely pointing out that waitie katie has a lot of high street stuff, the question is why, is her budget that limited. All her “Marilyn” moments, her Cenotaph behaviour, her lack of a work ethic. One miserable woman. I do not know one person jealous of her, not one. Why do all you sugars think that because we do not can see through her and do not like her that we are jealous – maybe it makes you feel better. Trust me, I do not have one bit of jealous in my for that woman, I would not swap places with her, she is welcome to what she has. But, she is mistress of her own fate, the way she behaves the ways she refuses to listen to advice, her way or no way, end of. She is common, not a commer, common, and she does not want to work to move forward, that requires work and effort, something she is not prepared to give. The public taxes pay for her lavish and luxurious lifestyle, she needs to put something back. As for “normal” she does not know the meaning of the word. Does the man in the street get a helicopter from Anglesey to London, or go to Mustique with a whole entourage of people, or live in several large properties, fully staffed, nannies for the child, the alleged fake pregnancy and surrogate to carry a child for her, which incidentally by law makes him ineligible to inherit the throne if correct, so that needs to be sorted out. I do not think that constitutes as normal.. You want to fawn all over them fine, that is your right, just don´t call those of us who don´t jealous, it is an enormous insult to us. We are all entitled to our opinions, that does not give us the right to be rude to others who do not share our opinions. Is your name carole by any chance?
Your jealousy is showing big time…………..in fact huge! Go find your own prince and marry him then you can have all the CM has. No I am not carol, I am Elizabeth McLaughlin!
Millie you are absolutely right and it appears that anyone who can think and analyse a situation can see that Kate is totally undeserving of her role. Her family are known to have stalked Willy for years (even admitted in Katie Nichol’s book and she is close to the family!). Kate finally ensnared him by parading in her underwear at a fashion show. She has flashed every part of her body, pictures on the internet in their hundreds! She had spent her life living off parents, then Willy and in nearly two and half has spent far far more time upon shopping and on vacations than she has on her few charities. She is lacking in charm and warmth and is unable to hold an intelligent conversation. I could go on and on about her many other faults but they have been well documented everywhere. The surrogacy has brought great shame to the RF and has caused a rift and their distancing from Willy and Kate. There are those who can’t believe this but the name of the surrogate is on the net along with ‘photos of her with George. It is much discussed and acknowledged in London medical circles. This has caused a major problem behind closed doors as it affects the succession to the UK throne as George is not the rightful and legal heir. There will be an implosion when this is documented in the British papers (as it already is abroad) and in books that are about to be published.
Please show me the pictures of the mother (with the baby) who gave birth to Prince George? And the name of the woman before I even attempt to believe this crap. Some here have nothing better to do then stir up trouble for people that have more then you have and you don’t even know these people on a *Personal Basis*, yet you waste your life being ugly, mean, hateful and nasty ego manics.
Oooh, elizabethmclaughline42, bitchy bitchy. Sounds like you are the jealous one. I am certainly, 200% not jealous of waitie katie. You want proof, do like the rest of us and research on the internet. Less time for you to spend trying to be santimonious, bitter and twisted.
Prove what you say or just shut up. I don’t need to explain myself; as I am not the ugly one here who make up stories of other people that you don’t even know on a personal level. Jealouy is your middle name for sure or else you wouldn’t make this crap up.
elizabethmclaughline42 – you are funny, splitting my sides laughing here. Methinks you are ugly and jealous. As for telling people to shut up, unless you have firm proof/evidence of what you are purporting to be true then I suggest you take your own advice – rudeness and bad temper are a sure sign you feel on the losing end here. HEAVEN FORBID I was ever like waitie middleton, and if my husband was anything like baldy willie we would never have been married. My husband has manners, doesn’t cheat on me and is a genuine caring person. Why on this earth would I want to swap him. I suggest you grow up and get a life, and whilst you are at it a visit to Specsavers might help too. You sound like a sad old has been to me, a little part of me actually feels sorry for you, always very sad when a person is an nasty, bitter and twisted as your posting leads us to believe.
