New Royal Marriage Website Planned
With the strong possibility of a Royal wedding between Prince William and Kate Middleton aproaching, Syntagma Media is planning a companion site to Royal Anecdotes especially for the occasion.
The website will be called Royal Marriage and will appear on royal-marriage.com and royal-marriage.co.uk. It will be part of our new Retail UK network magazine and will deal with every aspect of the wedding.
Stay tuned for further information.
John
Update: Kate Middleton has been invited to Christmas lunch with the Royal Family, adding to speculation that an engagement will be announced soon, maybe even over the Christmas period. Full story on Monday.
shocker….

i hope they get married. =]]]]
By Margaret on November 26th, 2006 at 8:17 pm
yeah, definately didn’t finish my sentence. I hope they get married because it would suck for Kate if they didn’t. She’d be the leftovers =]]]]]]]]
By Margaret on November 26th, 2006 at 8:30 pm
Whoa–a new site. Isn’t that a little premature?
By Pri on November 26th, 2006 at 8:39 pm
Kate’s been invited to Christmas lunch by the Queen. This is going to happen. It’s no good leaving it to the last minute. This site is going into our ShopShape UK network magazine, so it will look at all the products associated with a Royal Wedding as well as the event itself.
By John on November 26th, 2006 at 10:29 pm
How pathetic considering there is no OFFICIAL recognition of her let alone an engagement!
There is no guarantee that Kate is going or even invited to Sandringham, just tabloid desperation.

John-
Thanks for posting some new info! The last few were a bit too dragged on. Before I forget I want to thank you posting this site. I do not search for many (two others I read) and I appreciate that the majority of the language is not nasty. I just got what ‘hos’ meant- I thought it was a typo for ‘has’ silly me!
If they get married (Kate & Wills) I hope things work out for them, yet as heated as some comments have been I fear that reports will only get worse! I’ll be happy Kate will have a direction to go and wish her the best! She’ll need it. Any more word on Anne’s son Peter getting married in December? I am sorry to say that is one marriage I wish would not happen. Funny how no one seems to report on her 1/2 as much as Kate. I know Peter has no title, but he still is a member of the Royal family. I think Peter and Zara are the best of all HM’s grandchildren- then Harry. P.S. I think Charles’ blog is informative and interesting, however it has too much PR and makes it appear robotic. Charles should get an independent writer who will be more objective and advise him- not his spin doctors! John perhaps you should contact him and offer your services?!?
By ann l. on November 27th, 2006 at 2:43 am
i dont see pw and km getting married ever….if there is any “announcement” its going to be from CH says pw and km have broken up…..this website isnt as silly as Woolworths getting a plate and cup design created “just in case”…..you will have to wait a few more years for pw to announce his engagement and hopefully it will be to someone other than this girl who lives a “life of leisure”……
By lola on November 27th, 2006 at 4:01 am
Gosh, For a second I thought there “was an OFFICIAL Announcement”.
John…… December….is in a few days, so maybe there will be Official news.
By mandy on November 27th, 2006 at 7:06 am
Iam having a very bad feeling about this mariage.If it happens.It would end worst than Charles-Dianas.My opinion especialy these latest years have been that he should marry a girl that comes from his own set that knows the game and the inviroment he lives in.Kate has lived as a commoner,and she comes from a very steady family.So iam not so sure she will take well the coldness,being away for days,the close women friends,the easy cheating.Her parents seem to have a very close and happy mariage.She maybe dizzy now from the thought of being a Princess,but things will be different after the mariage.
By shake on November 27th, 2006 at 9:34 am
Ann, thanks, but I’ve got more than enough to do right now. In fact, I’d be glad if Kate would come along and give me a hand.
On Peter Phillips, there are snippets of gossip floating around, but I’ve not seen any hard news yet. A December event looks extremely unlikely, unless it’s low key or register office — even then, unlikely.
By John on November 27th, 2006 at 10:40 am
Shake, Camilla was a commoner, Diana too, so was the Queen Mother. The last real Royal spouse married to a future Monarch was Prince Phillip of Greece, now Duke of Edinburgh
By John on November 27th, 2006 at 10:44 am
Yes John,but the Queen mum didnt married the heir to the Throne,nor her husband was a heir.After the Abdication they become the Royal couple.And there is a difference from being a commoner coing from a family with a 500 years of history and strong British roots and bond with the last British blood King,and from a very newly created family who made their own money/You know what i mean.And i dont think we can compare the rather nice King George to Charles and his extravagant weird set.So out of touch.
By Shake on November 27th, 2006 at 11:11 am
That’s true, Shake, but to a diehard Royalist, once a commoner, always a commoner, even with an HRH.
What the Royal Family needs now is a period of stability. When William shakes off his youth and marries steady Kate, we could see that happening, don’t you think?
By John on November 27th, 2006 at 11:44 am
This could have happened if Kate was someone from WIlliams own set who knows what to expect and will continue the pretending even if the mariage fail,havent seen anything yet to prove she is steady or that William will shake up his youth,look at Charles,he is still behaving like a baby blaming others for his life and mistakes.As for William,his youth has been the excuse for many dont you agree?Lets wait and see what happens.I in fact have been a Royal die hard fan,who turned to Diana die hard fan,and now i have come to actually like more Edward and Sophie from the current Royals/I think the moment the Queen dies,there is going to be a huge crisis,as the recent reactions showed for Charles plans for the coronation and so on.
I believe Harry will be King,and will be the one who will bring the stability.I think the army will give him the discipline he needed and a loving wife he seems to need so much,a way of making him a strong and dedicated character,something he shows signs of being already but cant express it so well yet.
By Shake on November 27th, 2006 at 12:27 pm
Yes John. I will compare Kate to Camilla in that Kate seems to be his rock.
ps John — one of our major networks — NBC has a morning show that is about to do a small piece on Kate Middleton this morning — they did a teaser/lead in asking if another royal wedding is about to take place, is Britain’s Prince William about to become engaged. There is an increasing amount of chatter. Common sense says for them to wait a few years, but who knows John???
By Positive on November 27th, 2006 at 12:30 pm
Kate being WIlliams rock?Like Camilla was to Charles?Kate can be compared to Camilla in the way they got treated from William and his father.Like mistress material and nothing more.ALthough Kate doesnt have the past of Camilla nor the whole baggage she carries with and Kate has had University education,and wasnt so much deep in the Royal circles as Camila was.Charles had many rocks it seems.Kanga,Lucia Santa Cruz,Michael Fawcett and now Elizabeth B .Already many European Royal magazines have reported strains in the mariage while even the a few Uk papers had small blurbs about some troubles,there is no accident both Majesty and Hello who run throu Charles court had two weeks ago,covers about the couples “happiness”.John you must have read something about it.I think Charles is a lost man and he keeps on blaming others.Its probably Camillas turn to be blamed.Williams will come too,when he will start taking up more duties and overshadow his father.
By Shake on November 27th, 2006 at 12:42 pm
Like Woolies, we have to be prepared, Pos.
By John on November 27th, 2006 at 1:03 pm
Well, Shake, all families are made up of different characters, and sometimes they fall out. It’s not surprisingly there are differences in even the Royal Family.
As for Charles and Camilla : they are both in their 50s and independent people. They’ve always had separate lives in many respects, and people are starting to notice. At their age, they don’t need to be in each other’s pockets all the time.
By John on November 27th, 2006 at 1:07 pm
Yeah John.Wellsaid.Lets see how that story will develop.Especialy with so many people now complaining about Fawcetts stronghold on Charles,and Camilla complaining about Ch courtiers isolating her from Charles.Its not accidental she kept RayMill.Reporters have even started noting the days they spend apart.Reminds me of the War of the Waleses.Thats why i expect in some point Charles to start whining again,for Camilla being lazy,when at the same time he wanted her to keep a low profile and not overshadow him,and for WIlliam overshadowing him.
By shake on November 27th, 2006 at 1:28 pm
John iam interested to hear your opinion about the Party in the Park,oh Diana honor i meant.
By shake on November 27th, 2006 at 1:36 pm
Well, it looks like they hope to have it at Wembley, but it may not be finished in time.
Personally, I don’t like these pop concerts, although the one at Buckingham Palace during the Jubilee was quite good. It is for charity, so there’s no commercial aspect involved.
Good luck to them, I say.
By John on November 27th, 2006 at 1:40 pm
Dont be so sure there is no commercial aspect on it.Why you think the party in the Park was dropped?Since the goverment stopped the Princes Trust funding,the charity has been facing huge financial problems,cause of the huge running costs of the Princes Trust.Over 65% of the money go to the huge salaries of the Administrators and running the Trust and not to the charities.There was huge accusations for money trouble in the Us part of the TRust too.The Trust needs 1 million pounds a week to run,and i wonder when the problems will come out.Thats why Charles now advertise it.I expect the money from the Diana concert to go to Charles Trust whatever they say.
By shake on November 27th, 2006 at 1:57 pm
I was also wondering,how we will have a royal wedding in 2007 if there is going to be such a big concert for Diana and so many press and books will be out that period?Hmmm.Either a very quick wedding in the early 2007 months or a big engagement period?Hmm.This all doesnt sound logic to me.
By shake on November 27th, 2006 at 2:30 pm
Strictly speaking, a wedding in May or June would make the site redundant very quickly, so a marriage in 2008 would be better for us. But it’s not our choice, of course.
By John on November 27th, 2006 at 2:57 pm
If I may on Kate’s behalf; I hardly think anyone could justify comparing her to Camilla. The only thing they really have in common is the fact that they each are PC’s and PW’s first loves. Who knows how their relationships will pan out. HM has stated she will not grant another divorce (good for her) so all should choose wisely. Camilla knew exactly what she was in for and all the benefits she would be entitled too. PC cannot be believed regarding any of his sour comments. He had been known to say he will “not be the only PoW to not have a mistress.” I’m not too interested in PC because he tends to sulk and brood when things are not going the way he wants. I am interested now in all the extra players- Fawcett, Elizabeth B., and Ray Mills. If anyone has sites where I can get info on them I would appreciate it. If reports are true about PC’s extra activities it will only strengthen/confirm his real treatment regarding Diania- he’ll be solely responsible for shaming the Royal Family.
By ann l. on November 27th, 2006 at 4:38 pm
John- thanks for the info on Peter. Do you honestly believe HM would let her first grandson go without a church wedding/reception? What happened to all the rumours about him marrying in December? From a male perspective what do you think PW will do about Kate? If she is considered “steady” that hardly seems any basis for a real relationship. Why is PW being compared to his father? He has never stated or blamed his parents for life?
By ann l. on November 27th, 2006 at 4:46 pm
You can easily find information about Fawcett for example at the Times Archive(it has turned payed now)Guardian,Daily Mail,and in general in search engines.You can also find information for all the rest too,except Elizabeth B.She is rather protected.There are only a few old articles about her,and some references at the Times again before the Charles and Camillas wedding,talking about she having a strong hold on Charles.The most known story about them of course is the letters and the visits.A paper had noted how many times Charles visited her house during a period,and there were a big number of letters too.But Ch never answered those rumors.She still remains very strong,and its been said just recently that Charles head secretary will resign and that she is the one taking up the Place,and Camilla isnt at all happy about it.About Fawcett the stories are known,even the most notorious ones.When the edit of the Duchys finances started there were huge rumors about how many millions Charles has payed to try andavoid court hearings for Fawcett,about the incidents everyone knows,and how to justify the fact the Duchy had given Fawcett a huge house to leave.Many many stories about the Duchy finances could have caused huge controversy.But all of a sudden Charles got married.
By shake on November 27th, 2006 at 7:10 pm
Two of the most telling images of Fawcetts influence on the 2 Princes are Williams speech at his 21 when he thanked Michael for organising the party calling him a member of his family and the Windsor video that has behind scenes from Charles and Cams wedding.You can see there Fawcett beetween William and Harry shoulder to shoulder yelling and laughing and saying goodbye to Charles and Camilla for their honeymoon.You can see there William being so close to Fawcett as if he is indeed a member of their family.About some months there was a comment from ALB about Fawcett that made the round of the press offices and the Mirror even published a part of it,where she blamed Fawcett for much of the behaviour(beingneglegted and William being favoured from his father while Harry was ignored) Harry has received from his father,mostly cause he repeatedly saying Harry was like her(his mother),and what we can do about that,and that Harry was hopeless remember Harrys comment about him believe he has so much from his mother in him?He hears it all around.
Its wellknown Diana hated Fawcett and didnt wanted her sons near him at any cost./Well we can see now how that ended up.You should see the Video,an eye opener.
By shake on November 27th, 2006 at 7:31 pm
I’m still waiting for the December announcement predicted. I wonder if she will be at Christmas with the Royals, because the press reports this every year about Kate. I would like to see photos of her coming or going, if it does actually happen. The press seems to tell the public all these stories of Kate being close to the family, but it was Peter Phillips girlfriend, Amber Kelly who went on the cruise with the Royals and was photographed with the Queen on the Ship. If no official announcement comes about an engagement, it’s all just press speculation about Kate and William. I hope you get that December announcement John, so all the press guessing and speculation can be “fact”, instead of just more speculative stories about them.
By mandy on November 27th, 2006 at 8:41 pm
Hey Mandy, I’m confused isn’t her name Autumn not Amber…please correct me I would like to know…
By Lucy on November 28th, 2006 at 6:25 am
Ann I. says: I just got what ‘hos’ meant- I thought it was a typo for ‘has’ silly me!
Hahahahaha…thank you so much for making me laugh. I needed that….
By Lucy on November 28th, 2006 at 6:31 am
Hello
After reading all your comments, i think Positive is Kate.
By lilyfromfrance on November 28th, 2006 at 10:06 am
Thanks, Mandy. Last year she spent Boxing Day (26th) at Sandringham. This year, she’s been invited for Christmas Day — no mention of Chelsy though.
By John on November 28th, 2006 at 10:58 am
Actually she did not John.WIlliam and Harry were alone at Boxing Day,with the rest of the royals.Their father left the previous day after the Christmas Sunday Service and Lunch with Camila to join her family.William actualy left after boxing day and joined Kate and her family.It was just press wishfull articles and nothing more/
By shake on November 28th, 2006 at 11:48 am
Thanks for all your info Shake! Quite impressive your background info on the Royals. Feel free to pass on any other tidbits. I feel badly that Harry is getting the worst part of everything. I’m starting to like him more and more each day (But not quite as much as Peter!) Just wait 15-20 years from now people will finally begin to acknowledge what a great guy Harry is and his brother has turned into Charles’ clone! Harry is the smart one- he has distanced himself from his father and his cronies while keeping a strong (yet distant) relationship with an intelligent, educated, independent lady. I wish HM would give a bit more attention towards Harry. He has become quite disciplined from his training. Perhaps one day he will be the one “the people” wish would be their King!
By ann l. on November 28th, 2006 at 12:54 pm
Well i hope Harry will manage to control his drinking,cause for the time being thats the only thing that spoils his image/Its pretty clear he doesnt seem at all close with his father or Camilla.He spends no time with them,always running to Chelsy.
By shake on November 28th, 2006 at 1:39 pm
Shake I have to agree with you on every point regarding Harry. He has been shamefully been neglected first because he was a boy with rusty hair, second because he is only the spare and third as Diana pointed out he was naughty just like her. Although I do like William he seems so down to earth it is Harry who has done a lot more positive things such as his charity Sentable which honors his mother and I’m sure as any thing he was told to tell the world they love Camilla to bits. But Harry like his mother is telling a different story through the media by not being around during vacations and only being there when he has to. I’m sure Harry’s personality being almost the same as Diana’s works every last nerve on Camilla.
By Trudie on November 28th, 2006 at 3:55 pm
Harry talks to the press too,and they know how he realy feels about Camilla.The press just doesnt publish his real feelings.He talks about his Dad too.And his dead mum.William too./Of the record everybody knows how Harry feels and how William feels.It not accidental that WIlliam has been lately trying to relate to his mother with those fake 30 minute visits to hospitals and being photographed with kids.Burells words told the truth and many people agreed with him.Its not accidental William is now generally accepted as his father son in every way,and Harry as his mothers.William has sided with his father long ago.He even agrees with the Highrove set about his mother.Harry rebels to it.Thats why they are breaking him down throu the press.He told that i love Camilla to bits,cause of the reports about him fighting with his father and not accepting her in any way./You can easily find articles one week before the wedding were its freely written that he calls her a goat/
By shake on November 28th, 2006 at 4:17 pm
There was a converse beetwen a Beebs journalist once about William.And he talked about the meeting with him in a Tetbury pub before a photocall the next day at Home farm with William and his father.William met the reporters the previous night at the pub.And as usual the climate was rather comfortable and nice.And William was asked questions and he answered with no problem.ANd he was asked about his mum too,until then he was avoiding to talk about her,making only a few comments even in private.And he made a rather lets not call it comment.The reporters who heard it were very suprised,and the converse took a bad turn,making the meeting to end rather harsly.Next day many reporters asked Paddy Harveson if this was Williams opinion and if there was any correction to be made.Paddy answered back that the meeting was of the record and as usual he expected the reporters will keep the deal and not mention anything about it.Press to answer if this was Williams opinion about his mother Paddy answered that its true William is “pragmatic”about her.And that this was an opinion he shaped throu the years.I think its has been very clear what Williams opinion is and how he avoided for years and years to honor her or realy defend her.Actions show.Now that people have understand that,and even Burell had the courage to say it,all of a sudden they try to turn things around and at least make him appear as Dianas boy again.He is a Highrove breed.I see no connections with his mother left in any part of his life.He easily accepted for example the woman who hurted her so much and all those friends who back stabbed her,and the same time blame the Spencers for evertything.Its clear where his loyalty lays.Even in this recent Hospital visit he called his mother “she” and he made a very cut a half line comment about her.Harry always says my mother/Litle details make the difference.William never calls his father he.He calls him my father.
By Shake on November 28th, 2006 at 6:27 pm
Wow Shake I would like to read more about this but since I live in the States it hard to get the real stories about William could you tell me what sites has this information. I find it extremely sad that William feels the way he does about the mother who clearly adored him.
By Trudie on November 28th, 2006 at 8:59 pm
The same happened at klosters too after that disastrous photocall.Because Charles was caught calling the press names,the same night the press pack was allowed to join the Princes at the restaurant and then the Club.Remember?Harry was offered drugs and they were trying to trap him,while Guy Pelly was nuding himself infront of everybody again,getting his pants down while dancing over a table.All the reporters who followed them in Klosters were there.And as usual only the good comments of William were published.Dont you think just because they appear to hate the press or to not meet them,it actually happens.The press has been used and manipulated by the Palace as much as the press manipulated the Royals too.
By Shake on November 28th, 2006 at 9:06 pm
Shake…I love reading your posts. I’m so glad you cleared up the Boxing Day matter, because the press tried to say Kate would be at Christmas last year with William and she NEVER was, as you so clearly stated.”
Oh Lucy……I had to laugh, about name confusion on Peter’s girl. I must have forgotten Peter’s girlfriends name for a second, or I was getting sleepy when I wrote the post. “Autumn” I must make a mental note!
I do think SHE might be the one who gets the next engagement announcement.
Kate is so hyped by the press, and still nothing official for her and not even one photo with the Queen. Autumn was already seen with the Queen.
Well maybe Kate only has a few days to wait, December is here any minute now.
By mandy on November 28th, 2006 at 9:18 pm
TO THEM IT DOES NOT MATTER TO THEM IF THEY SPEAK BAD OR OF THEM SINGLE LIKES THE MONEY IF THEY WANT TO DO A PAGE WEB SPECULATING THINGS THAT IN THE LONG RUN ARE NOT GOING AWAY TO GIVE (REAL WEDDING) I IMAGINE THAT WITH THAT MONEY KATE ONE GOES AWAY HAS TO GO AGAIN OF VACATIONS SO THAT SHE DOES NOT WORK DON’T MENTION IT SINGLE MATTERS TO HIM THAT THEY SPEAK OF SHE BY INTERNET AND OF THAT EXTRACTION THE MONEY TO GO AWAY OF TRIP
By patty sotelo on November 28th, 2006 at 10:14 pm
i think if we get any kind of royal engagement in december it will be peter and autumn….but i want to ask you JOHN why you seem to think km is so wonderful? how do you explain the fact that she has gone for nearly 18 months w/o working? what about the fact that they just recently had a “cooling off” period because he kissed someone else? and its not the first time that he has done so….dont you think it would be a really bad idea for them to get engaged? at least at this point? she needs to get a job and create a life on her own….seperate from pw…..she seems to have lost herself and put her whole life on hold for a big “maybe”…your thoughts?
By lola on November 29th, 2006 at 2:31 am
Many Thanks.Its the same way about all that Africa trips.i havent seen one proof yet that Kate has joined William in Africa or in those vacations to Mauritious a few years back.The press,mostly the Sun reported she was there,but she actually wasnt cause at the same days she was pictured at events in the Uk and in her gym close to her house.Its very easy to check out if what the press write its true or not.They very often confuse and mistake the dates and dont check out the photos sites and as a result they become uncredible.I think the Queen in general doesnt have much time for Charles or his family,William or let alone his girlfriend.Both she and the Duke are far closer to Edward and Sophie,and to Peter and Zarah and to Beatrice and Eugenie.Especialy from the moment the Yorks moved to the Royal Lodge at Windsor,Beatrice is seen riding with the Queen very often.Its not accidental the Queengave her her favourite horse.As William himself admited,he doesnt see his grandparents much(but hey they are very close,Williams usual line)cause they are all so busy(We know ho busy William is).Especialy the Duke likes Harry more.Charles influence on William has been very obvious to his grandparents too.The Queen many times has been angered by the lack of access to William.Charles keeps William isolated and when he wants something he uses him as his ace.
By Shake on November 29th, 2006 at 4:29 am
Like Trudie, I would also like any sites on that interview with William. Up until now, I had always believed that both boys had a deep affection for their mother. Perhaps I have been mistaken?
I think that it’s for their father’s sake that both Harry and William have accepted Camilla. Despite all the nasty talk, Charles is still their father and they must love him. All the blame that Camilla gets is unfair, considering that Charles was just as equally involved. William and Harry must know that now and realizing that hating either Charles/Camilla is pointless, considering everyone makes mistakes (the boys having made several of their own), have moved forward. Not to say that there isn’t any bitterness, but being royalty (and as such a public figure) they’ve kept it inside.
Until I hear any proof otherwise, this makes the most sense.
By Jane on November 29th, 2006 at 7:25 am
Actually it doesnt make more sense.Its just a nice fairytale way to say that maybe WIlliam saw no bad on the cheating and the backstabbing./Sorry but the natural for me or i think in general for kids who have seen their mother suffer so much and then die,and then the two people who were responsible for her so much pain,taking all and even more,the woman receiving more honors than their own mother,sorry but at least they could have kept some dignified distance and made sure she was protected and honored too.This whole acceptance and move on talk seems to me a way to excuse the lack of any kind of ethics,or principles around William and his father.Its better to believe all that about WIlliam than accept the very obvious,that he sided with his father.Charles and Camilla are equally to be blamed,and sorry Jane,i see no love story nor a happy family.William seems heavily troubled of who he is and his life,Charles seems desperate and again rather depressed,and Camilla?She got what she wanted,but lets see how she handles it.Already there are talks she is unhappy and goes hiding at RayMill for weeks.Moving doesnt mean accepting and forgiving the people that suits us,while we condemn all the rest.Unfortunately William and Harry cant forgive the Spencers for example,or some Dianas friends who havent talked to the press or havent betrayed her,but poor old boys are too busy to meet them or have any contact with them.I understand though.Its hard to accept what a dissapointment William has been.
By Shake on November 29th, 2006 at 7:48 am
Hey lets excuse everything to Daddy cause he is our Dad,and to Camilla cause Dad married her,and lets forgive everything all those people did to our mum,and live with them and with their way of life.And lets not forgive the Spencers cause hey they attacked our Daddy(while all of Charles friends bashing Diana in the worst way,anyone saw Soames this Sunday in Church with Charles and Camilla?The man who called Diana paranoid and crazy in National Tv?)and Burell and Jepshon,but we have time for Seward abd Junor.You see Jane.Reject everything about Diana.Accept everything about Charles.Yeah they moved on all right.Look at themHow much potentuial they have.And now?As Richard Kay wrote,Diana would have been so dissapointed seeing her son following his father in the root of an isolated world.And he wrotet his a month ago.
By Shake on November 29th, 2006 at 7:55 am
William is very private about his feelings, so too much shouldn’t be read into unsubstantiated tittle tattle.
However, as a small backup to Shake’s point, he did once say that his mother often embarrassed him while his father never did.
I think he’s well aware that she had some dark traits underneath the glossy exterior. I would call that realism. He’s clearly anxious to put a lid on all the gossip, most of which is just guesswork based on half truths.
But don’t demonize him just because he’s got a broader picture of Diana than any of us could possibly have.
By John on November 29th, 2006 at 11:43 am
Lola, I don’t necessarily think “km is wonderful” — I just don’t know her personally, so I give her the benefit of the doubt. In the absence of hard facts that she’s the Devil’s spawn, the Wicked Witch, the Monster from Hell, I think she’s probably just a nice, ordinary, clever girl.
William has to live with her if he marries her, so it’s his call.
Now if she had Cherie Blair’s form, I’d have a totally different opinion.
By John on November 29th, 2006 at 11:55 am
After reading all of this I feel sooo sad. I am heartbroken for Harry being treated so callously. Thank God Harry has an independent streak in him and he sticks to it. I always wondered in some of the interviews why PW appeared as if he was holding back his words while his body language was at eased and relaxed sitting with his dad.PoW was a man in his thirties when he married a 20 year old who had yet to experience a relationship. PoW continued his affairs and do as he pleased which must have tormented Diana because she did have love for him. What young girl would not have been competely heartbroken? I know I would have been. I think everything Shake has written rings very true to fact. I just cannot believe PW has done a complete 180 on his mother. I do not know how PW could be so cold regarding his mother’s situation. I am really shocked to read this info! Shake I must admit you are extraordinary or shall I say “you rock!” I do believe the media puts quite a spin on things to lean in favour of one side. I’m wondering how much truth there is to Burrell’s story.
By ann l. on November 29th, 2006 at 4:22 pm
I almost forgot to ask about Peter and Autumn. People do not seem to report much on her. A few years ago a friend was at a race event sitting in the box seats and saw how down to earth Peter was- just one of the guys. While at the Ladies’ Room things can be heard in restrooms that are not meant for others to repeat- let’s just say she can play dirty. I just cannot stand to see a great guy be fooled- I believe my friend who was not exagerating; just like I believe the guys from a bar that told me about some snotty girlfriend of Jude Law’s throwing a tantrum because she did not have I.D. She used more profanity than the guys while claiming “don’t you know who I am- I’m a famous actress…” The funny thing they didn’t know who she was until the media started their spin.

I dont blame Burell nor i accuse him for betrayal.Burell was very close to Diana,William and Harry while she was alive.WHen she died,he was cut of.He accepted that.He stayed away,didnt wrote any book,until he was taken to court.he was accused,dragged,threatened his store burned down,kept at the police,police officers invaded his house at night.The Royals refused to see him,William and Harry returned all his letters closed,didnt take a second to hear his point of view on the matter.Then when he clearly said,he will take the stand,and same some heavy truths about Prince Charles in court,all of a sudden the Queen remembered.And then he started writing book.Welldone.I hope he writes more and pays them with the same money they payed him.I dont blame him.William showed towards Burell to as he did with Tiggy,and so many others how easily he can forget people who helped him,loved him and were there for him.They didnt suited his father and their new family,so they were dropped.Harry is far more loyal and independent.

OMG! PW turned on Tiggy!?! He is behaving like a real jerk!. There is nothing worse than having a loyal trustworthy friend be stabbed in the back by the one they cared for! I am shocked! I did read somewhere in the court schedule Tiggy accompanied Princess Anne to an event. It was so great to see she was still around- but she was PoW’s friend- why the turn?

Her mother has been a Lady in Waiting for Princess Anne for years.You mean you dont know about the famous incident where William throwed her a glass of water infront of everybody on a busy restaurant at Klosters many years ago cause she dared to tell him and his drunken friends to calm down cause they were bothering the rest of the people there?He has become very arrogant and calculative.There were many examples,for example his behaviour towards the water polo team of StAndys.He dropped it cause he wanted to focus on his studies Palace said.Truth is he was dropped from his teamates cause he didnt attended trains and when he was taken to task from some of them he answered he had better things to do,the coach saved him from being beaten up.He was dropped immediately.Camilla didnt liked Tiggy,and as usual what Camilla doesnt like Charles doesnt like,William doesnt like.

The states promote an ideal PW, so I don’t know all of this info- I am profoudly shocked that he behaves in this manner. His behavour is horrible- and disgusting! Poor Kate- run while you can having a title does not define who you are! Shake how do you get all this info- quite interesting!
By ann l. on November 29th, 2006 at 5:50 pm
The Tiggy story and also the water polo story have been vastly reported.Its not accidental Tiggy remains close to Harry but not to William,did you saw their hug at Harrys passing out?He spended over an hour with her,and her parents,taking pictures and celebrating,before turning to the official site and join his father and the Queen.We havent seen her being pictured with William in many years and even recently they both attended a very High profile wedding and they kept their distance from each other.Tiggy hated the way Harry was being neglegted and always puted down in comparison with William she reacted to it.The Water Polo story can be found in Both Daily Mail and in the Mail of Sunday archives and in many other papers at the time.He was dropped cause there wasnt a good climate about him on the team.He was never popular in Uni,he never mingled,he was always back in Highrove almost at every weekend.Dont believe he setled down after the first year.He was always back.Its wellknown he was using helicopters in order to be sooner back.You thing he treats Kate better?He flirts other people infront of her,and have ignored her many times.His friends doesnt think much of her.THat comment,i got sex waiting on my room,he said it at Klosters infront of so many reporters.Come on guys,these stories are known,we just choose to forget them,cause we dont want to accept William isnt the way we wanted him or portrayed from CH.Kate wants to become a Princess,and she is very pressured by her family too.Its not so easy to drop him,she shaped her life around him for some years now.She isnt so innocent either remaining in a relation fulling knowing he isnt faithfull.

A word of warning: take remarks posted under anonymous screen names in the comment section of a blog/message board with a grain of salt.

oooo… I’m scared… oh please…as if PW, PH, or KM, would log in here… and I we are the kids living in a fantasy world…blah…
By Ziny on November 30th, 2006 at 12:21 am
I know I’ve lived a sheltered life because I have no idea what you are refering to Positive- anonymous screen names in blog and message board?? Sounds a bit cloak and dagger in my opinion, but then again I read some of your comments thinking “hos” was a typo for has… and “pissing game” what an odd thing to compare others comments to. Is your view “positive” regarding PW and Kate? After reading some things have you reconsidered your position? Nobody is perfect, but I really doubt that PW is Mr. Sunshine and at this point I truly feel badly for Kate.
By ann l. on November 30th, 2006 at 1:21 am
Just doing my part to counter libel and to put the kabosh on rumors and lies that spread like HIV on the internet.
The term is called “pissing contest,” a rather crude American colloquialism to which sadly this board has degenerated since a few from another anti-Kate Middleton message board have shown up here en masse to shout down anyone or any news report that runs counter to their extremely negative views of Kate Middleton.
My view towards Kate is my view and will not change, no matter how much the nattering nabobs of negativism shout about jobs or any other red herring in order to deny an increasing reality.

Perhaps they do for all you know. Really, think for a minute how you would feel if you were Prince William and your friends read you some of the remarks that are said about your girlfriend. It’s mean and nasty conjecture.
So don’t be scared, but do try to be a decent human being before you hit the submit button for once.

Hi everyone, I really enjoy reading all of your posts. I’ve been reading them for a while now and this is the first time I’m giving my opinion. While I do think Kate Middleton ought to do something a bit more productive with herself, overall I think she seems like a decent young lady. I mean if she makes PW happy, isn’t that whats most important?
By Jean on November 30th, 2006 at 4:30 am
*rolls eyes* so now you’re part of William’s posse (since you have used the word ho before you should know what this means…)… he should be used by now (24yrs….) that everytime he breaths,or his girlfriend for that matter, will be worship by some, criticized by some, and ignore by some… he grew up in the lime light. I don’t think he cares as long as Kate doesn’t care..
Also, I think he would be a smart enough man to understand people have DIFFERENT point of views and opinions about different things…unlike other people….
Still… I don’t think he would ever come online to check what we write.. he lives in his own world. Kate, on the other hand, has lots of time to surf the web, or so it seems.
Reality check Pos… in the real world war exists because people are not willing to listen to others…. no wonder the world is how it is… there’s just SOME people who want everything to be their way and not let others feel or think whatever they want.
By Ziny on November 30th, 2006 at 5:44 am
what is William going to do to me because I think Kate needs to get a job or do a little charity work? probably just show his middle finger to the screen and curse it to and then have a laugh at it… *rolls eyes*
By Ziny on November 30th, 2006 at 5:46 am
and by the way…. we are not trying to make you change your mind about kate… that’s your problem, not ours… and please do not JUDGE everyone as a anti-kate, because that as if we are being racists or something… its just weird. You’re the one trying to make everyone change their minds about kate, for that matter… geeez…
By Ziny on November 30th, 2006 at 5:49 am
Ziny dont mind him.There are all around intimidating people who just dont accept the all what a wonderfull William is and how wonderfull Kate is,and how wonderfull Camilla is with no contest.This fairytale doesnt sell anymore./

I had never considered their lives anything but difficult based on their choices and behaviour which now appears to be a complete and total nightmare. Thanks Positive for your info- I had no idea the use of “pissing contest” was suitable for any informal writing. I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone say it much less write it- well maybe in an old cowboy movie. I really feel so so badly for Kate even to the point of concern because if public displays of poor behaviour (as Shake has written) it is a very strong indicator of one’s mental and emotional stability as well as mentality and personality. PW is behaving in an immature manner and it does reflect well on the monarchy. HM has never behaved this way nor would she ever. One would think others would follow her example.

“…but do try to be a decent human being before you hit the submit button for once.”
^Perhaps you should follow your own advice, Positive.
I read a recent comment where John said that Shake could be a romance novelist. I disagree. Perhaps Shake could write a mystery, or a thriller. She/he? seems to fit more in that department, seeing as he/she dwells in conspiracy theories and evil people. I’m sorry Shake, but that’s just how it looks. I think that you know a lot about the Royal Family and you always bring something new and interesting to the table. However, it all seems to be a bunch of hype. There are so many crazy things written about the Royals. You seem to survive on these articles/journals – wherever you get the info!
By Jane on December 1st, 2006 at 11:05 pm
Dont say sorry,i already answered to John about that romantic novelist comment.But i dont like that you call my posts and opinions crazy stories.I guess thats another way to reject them.Everything i posted has been reported in more than once source,and i have wellsearched it.
By Shake on December 2nd, 2006 at 4:12 am
I don’t deny that your opinions are shared by others. I believe the fact that other individuals like yourself share these views. I’m just saying that I believe many of them (such as Diana being murdered) are false. So I will say sorry for crazy, but I maintain that they are inaccurate. If you see this as rejectioin, then so be it. I see it as a view of mine that disagrees with a view of yours.
By Jane on December 2nd, 2006 at 4:37 am
I accept the correction.Everybody is entitled to their opinions,so maybe it turns out yours are false.Or mine.Who knows./
