Prince William’s longtime girlfriend Kate Middleton surprised us this week in a pair of yellow short-shorts and sequined halter top she wore to an ‘80s-themed charity event she co-hosted. Typically, the 26-year-old wears dresses or suits of which the Queen would approve. What else don’t we know about her?

Madame Tussauds has already started making a wax replica of her—so it will be ready when she and Prince William get married. The rumor-mill says they’ll be engaged around Christmas and married next year. Talk about pressure. No wonder Wills is losing his hair.

Middleton wears a lot of Issa, a line by London-based Brazilian designer Daniella Issa Helayel that is a favorite of Princesses Beatrice and Eugene.

In addition to Kate, others have a lot riding on her possible engagement to the Prince. Birchcroft China is producing a set of four thimbles featuring her face. If she and Wills break up, this company is screwed.

Her full name is Catherine Elizabeth Middleton—so why doesn’t she spell her name “Cate”?

Sadly, Kate will never be Great Britain’s ruler. Only Protestant descendants of Princess Sophia are eligible to succeed.

You know, I’ve always wondered if these society people who try to raise money for good causes ever put any of their own in there for that very good cause that they are supposedly standing up for…..
Waddayathink…. do you think she put up a dime or any of the other fancy friends of Kate Middletons?

She probably spells it Kate because nobody in Britain spells it Cate.

She doesn’t call herself “Kate,” so it’s not up to her how it’s spelled. She has been known, since birth, to her friends and family members as “Catherine.” “Kate” is a media invention. Anna, of course “society people” donate money of their own to charitable causes. Half the world’s hospitals and other socially-positive institutions were built with funds donated by the rich, and the world is full of charitable foundations established by such people with their money.
