Marriage in the air again for Prince William
With information coming thick and fast that Kate Middleton is back on the Royal scene, Rebecca English is reporting that sources close to Prince William claim he believes he needs to marry “before Prince Charles becomes King so he can bring up his own family away from the limelight”.
A friend says, “A lot of William’s friends are seriously worried that it is for this reason he has decided to get back with Kate. She has always made clear that she would jump at the chance to rekindle their relationship, which has become an increasingly attractive prospect for William. Even though he has had his fair share of girlfriends it has never been easy for him to get really close to them because it is so difficult for him to give his trust completely. Kate is the one girl who changed all that.”
Apparently, they are keen to make public their renewed commitment to each other, which could be as early as at a polo match today. It seems William has realized that the “grass isn’t greener on the other side”.
We also hear that William has bought Kate a vintage Cartier locket as a sign of his commitment. Another friend comments, “William appears to be feeling the pull of marriage more strongly than ever, even though he was very much in the driving seat when he and Kate split up. That doesn’t mean he intends to walk down the aisle next week but it is now not a question of if, but when. He wants to get married, period.”
Why the change of heart? “It is clear the tenth anniversary of his mother’s death is weighing heavily on his mind. He knows how much she wanted him to marry well and have a happy family life. She was convinced it was the key to making William a great King. But a lot of people — Harry included — think that he is clinging on to the only girl he has ever come close to having a serious relationship with. Harry has said — in his own, unique way — that his brother has made a big mistake ‘dogging back to Kate’. He thinks William is being weak and going for the easy option. At least two wellbred girls have been seriously touted as future royal brides of late but quickly made it clear that they wouldn’t countenance it. Kate, however, is very much available.
“It may sound rather harsh, but he has openly admitted in the past that he wasn’t sure she was ‘the one’ and none of us can see how anything has dramatically changed.”
It appears that Kate’s mother, Carole Middleton, has agreed to “take a back seat” this time round. Despite that, the number of people interfering in their lives seems to have risen. Even Prince Harry is getting in on the act.
As they are both 25, surely they are old enough to make up their own minds?


Where next for Royal dumpee Kate Middleton? Will she spread her wings and fly farther and faster than a berth with the Royal Family would have allowed?
