MIDDLETON CAMP IS FIGHTING BACK

Prince William and Kate Middleton


Sunday November 16,2008

By Adam Helliker


DESPITE his commitment to Kate Middleton, as emphasised by her appearance at last night’s Highgrove party, certain friends of Prince William have been urging him to enjoy himself and play the field while he can during his ongoing service with the RAF.

Indeed I am sad to report that some of William’s more mischievous chums have once again been disseminating anti-Middleton propaganda, which paints the blameless Kate in an unflattering light.

Again, some of these unkind jibes have been levelled at her mother Carole, who in the past has been accused of social climbing and going to great lengths to further Kate’s position as a putative royal bride.

Retentive readers may recall the reports of how some of William’s more puerile pals would whisper “doors to manual” whenever Kate entered the room, in a deliberately provocative dig at Mrs Middleton’s former career as an air hostess.

This was at the same time as others in the prince’s circle propagated rumours of Carole’s supposed social faux pas; she was dismissed as being “too below stairs” and criticised for her use of such common words as “toilet” and “pardon”.

But it was, claimed some, Carole’s over-*riding ambition which was most unpalatable.

She was even given the Dickensian moniker “Mrs Meddleton”. All this malignant gossip took its toll on Carole, who at one point was, according to one report, “close to breaking point”. But now the Middleton camp is fighting back.

One long-standing chum of the family assures me: “Carole is far from being this tense, Hyacinth Bucket figure desperate to see her daughter marry a prince.

“She’s actually very calm about the situation and has a philosophical approach to her daughter’s relationship. She’s of the opinion: ‘What will be, will be. Nothing we do will change the situation and we’re sure it will all work out – just as long as Kate doesn’t do anything silly.’”

SEARCH COLUMNISTS for:


Although Carole may have initially encouraged her daughter to pursue her relationship with William (and advised her to take riding lessons after the Queen invited Kate to ride with her at Windsor), there is every sign that the Middletons’ lives would not fall apart should their daughter’s seven-year romance fail to result in a royal wedding.

The friend continues: “At present Kate is living at home with her parents in Berkshire and working at Party Pieces but that’s because they want to protect her. They’d prefer to keep her under their umbrella, so she can have a nine-to-five job without worrying whether she’s being exploited.

“Carole would be delighted if William popped the question but she’s a realist: she knows Kate needs something to fall back on if it all ends in tears.”

Thanks for that article.

I think it would be a shame if their engagement/wedding fell through. Kate would be crushed- she's been with this man for years!! And who knows, I kind of think, that they are probably already engaged. The kind of thing where it is just between them two, a sweet little secret.

Thank you for keeping us updated with the royals ashcottmanor!! Are you part of a William/Kate/Royal family forum or do you just keep up with news about them?

Oh dear, STFU Paris Hilton. The woman had a nose job, dies her hair a nice shade of Barbie blonde, wears contact lenses and is always caked in make-up and after all that hard work still look as enticing as a Bratz doll. She is in no position to patronise anybody about their appearance.

 

[Ashcottmanor]

^ Well said.

You're welcome! No I am not part of that forum, I usually go to Teamhighgrove.com to see if they have any new pictures but they also have a News page so I get most of my news from there since they cover all sources not just the Daily Mail etc.
I do like to read about what they're up to, good or bad

His Royal Peen!

Prince William got caught by a pap giving a golden shower to a fence during one of his polo match and you can see his royal turtle smiling for the [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, Verdana][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, Verdana]cameras[/FONT][/FONT]. Actually, I think it's frowning. It wants some ****ing privacy. And you can tell [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, Verdana][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, Verdana]Prince [/FONT][/FONT] is a royal, because he holds his peen all classy-like. He probably shakes it with his pinky up.
If these were pictures of Prince Hot Ginge, I'd probably be running to the hospital, because my genitals would have exploded. Although, I doubt a pap could ever get a clear picture of Hot Ginge's peen. His ginge pubies are so shiny and magnificent that they blind [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, Verdana][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, Verdana]cameras[/FONT][/FONT]. b*tches have to wear cataract glasses when going down on him.
Anyway, Prince Willy's willy is after the jump. Don't lick the screen please. That could be dangers. JUMP!!!

Did Prince William break up Paris and Benji?

It was almost inevitable. But speculation is now rife amongst some parts of the media that Prince William was the cause of the recent split between Paris Hilton and Benji Madden of the band Good Charlotte. Benji was said to be “furious” over newspaper reports that Prince William planned to spend News Years Eve with Paris.

Jibe over Kate and sister

From: Daily Star <- click for full article.

Snide royal courtiers have dubbed Kate and Pippa Middleton the Wisteria Sisters.

They have named them after the wall-creeping plant because they are “beautiful, fragrant and can climb up anything”.

Kate’s romance with Prince William has already launched her into high society circles.

But it’s the emergence of Pippa, 23, that’s upset the Palace staff.

When I recently went to a garden centre, I saw a sign for plans that said 'High Climbers' and I thought of the Middletons...

 

[Ashcottmanor]

^ lol

 

[Style-Addict]

Haha, I think their nickname is quite funny.

 

[Style-Addict]

I just got the Hello magazine- a few weeks old, it takes us awhile to get hello here in the US. The cover story is "Meet the Middleton Sisters", I havent had time to read the article yet, but the pictures of Kate are very pretty. If course they're all reprints, but she is very good looking (and I am one of the few that likes her fashion choices).

 

[Harumi]

^I think she is average looking. Hello typically publish very flattering pictures of celebrities.
She can look pretty when styled and fully made up but who doesn't? Her facial features are unremarkable and her hair is her only outstanding feature. Cute smile too. That's it.

 

[Ashcottmanor]

She's very plain looking, especially up close. There isn't one thing that sticks out as extraordinary about her. She does have great hair and nice facial features and she is certainly not ugly but there are more exquisite looking women out there, so I guess Wills likes her for her personality or something. I don't get it, oh well!

This is rich, I never liked Kate's mother...

Carole Middleton blabs to the press

After years of ‘sources’ and ‘friends’ being the Middleton’s unofficial mouthpiece to the British press, Kate Middleton’s mother Carole has now spoken directly to the press by allowing herself to be quoted in the Mandrake column in the Daily Telegraph.

Whilst attending the Hennessy Gold Cup at Newbury, no doubt invited due to her being Kate Middleton’s mother, Carole Middleton used the opportunity to inform the press she feels “vulnerable” from all the attention Katy Waity’s relationship with Prince William has brought. A tad rich coming from a woman who trotted along to Prince William’s passing out parade at Sandringham looking more royal than royalty. Indeed, it seems that Carole or Mrs Meddleton now wants to play the victim:

"You see, I feel very vulnerable about everything," she told Mandrake last weekend at the Hennessy Gold Cup, at Newbury racecourse, just a few miles from her house in Berkshire. "I'm not a celebrity and don't want to be one. Celebrities have minders and PR people. I don't want a PR person and wouldn't want to have to pay to employ one. I haven't asked for all this."

Carole also used the opportunity to dispell the infamous chewing gum rumour when she supposedly met the Queen. The fact Carole decided to let slip this little detail about the Queen has left many royal watchers questioning if William and Kate are still together.

Here is the full article. I have a feeling that Kate and William are over, and if they aren't I'm sure this article will push it over the edge. Talking to the press is a BIG no no. And I guess we know now that all that "Catherine" name business was probably true. It was probably started by her mother.

Kate Middleton's 'vulnerable' mother speaks out for first time

Since Kate Middleton was first courted by Prince William more than five years ago, her mother, Carole, has been the model of discretion. The glamorous businesswoman has, however, now broken her silence to voice her concerns about the impact that public scrutiny is having on her life.

"You see, I feel very vulnerable about everything," she told Mandrake last weekend at the Hennessy Gold Cup, at Newbury racecourse, just a few miles from her house in Berkshire. "I'm not a celebrity and don't want to be one. Celebrities have minders and PR people. I don't want a PR person and wouldn't want to have to pay to employ one. I haven't asked for all this."
Carole, 53, who was an air stewardess when flying was still chic, owns Party Pieces, a successful mail-order company providing children's party paraphernalia, with her husband, Michael. "I'm concerned about my business; that's my focus," she said. "I don't want the attention to detract from that. I'm also worried for my family: I have three children – not just Catherine."
Carole has been subjected to much criticism for her alleged faux pas, such as being captured by television cameras chewing gum during William's passing-out ceremony at Sandhurst in 2006. It was also claimed that she used the word "toilet" and phrases such as "pleased to meet you" and "pardon" when introduced to the Queen.
In fact, she has never met Her Majesty and the gum was apparently a nicotine substitute that she needed to help her give up smoking.
Carole is also concerned about the media glare on her son, James, who set up the Cake Kit Company in 2007 after quitting Edinburgh University at the end of his first year. "James is very good with it all," says his mother. "He writes articles and has business projects which he wants to talk about, but then it's difficult when everything else is going on around him and people don't just want to know about his projects."

Prince William reportedly invites Kate Middleton to Sandringham

Howdy-ho-ho! Kate could bring the turkey!​

Prince William has reportedly asked his granny's permission to shack up with Kate Middleton during the Christmas break. According to the Daily Star's much maligned Clive Goodman, HM is pleased with the pair sharing a "lovenest" during the festive season.

MrGoodman writes: 'Prince William has asked the Queen’s permission to spend Christmas in a lovenest with Kate Middleton. Wills, 26, wants to use a remote shooting lodge on his gran’s Sandringham estate to celebrate the festive season with his own Christmas cracker. Normally Kate, also 26, spends the holiday with her parents at a rented stately home in Perthshire. But William wants to relax with her before starting a year of intensive training as an RAF helicopter pilot.'

A friend of the couple tells Mr Goodman: “This could be his last Christmas with Kate for some time. His training and rescue duties are going to take him away from home so he would like to make this Christmas special for her. They could still share Christmas Day with his father and the rest of the family at the main house but return to their own world in the evening.” Aw...Bless them.

After making the Kate apologists all misty eyed, Mr Goodman then puts the boot into Middleton and her family: 'The Queen is thought to be perfectly happy about the arrangement. But some courtiers have raised their eyebrows. They feel there should be no special treatment of Kate unless she and William formalise their relationship with an engagement. One confided: “If you make an exception for one, why not for everyone? Frankly, many people feel that Miss Middleton and her family are quite pushy enough.”' Indeed!

Kate Middleton fluffs her fulltime non-job to shop

Kate out hunting a bargain?

Kate Middleton has been trying to push her new found enthusiam for working by dribbling bits and pieces to the media about her enormously important role at Party Pieces.
Said to be working so hard that she has no time to herself, starting early in the morning and finishing late at night, Kate's sudden industriousness we were told was her way of proving her critics wrong. Well it all seems to have been in vain for Miss Middleton has reverted back to her old ways and hobbies, one of which is shopping.
Katie Nichol from the Mail On Sunday has reported that Kate has been frequenting a West London shop called TK Maxx. Miss Nichol writes: 'The 26-year-old is a huge fan of the bargain-basement outlet TK Maxx in Kensington High Street, West London, where she pops in at least once a week.'
Miss Nichol also quotes one of Kate's pals: "Kate loves a spot of cut-price shopping. She's in TK Maxx all the time having a root through the knock-down designer rails."
Adding the time it takes to travel into London from her parents Berkshire home, we wonder just how much and how long Kate frequents "work".

Prince William grows a beard whilst Kate Middleton takes part in bird kill

Prince William & Kate Middleton have been photographed together for the first time in months, not having a romantic dinner or visiting a London nightclub, but during a shooting party in the fields of Sandringham.

Sporting a beard, Wills and his on-off girlfriend were photographed by paps who were standing on public road, delighting in shooting birds at the Queen's Christmas residence. Donning her now infamous fur hat, Middleton took aim and shot at anything with feathers. Along with the pair was Prince Harry and an unidentified woman.

A source told the News of the World about William's beard: “He has been back about a week and knew it was only a matter of time before someone spotted him. Everyone has been saying it makes him look like some of the old British kings. No one is sure if he’s going to keep it. But it’s here for now.”

A spokesman for Animal Aid Charity was disappointed to see Kate Middleton shooting pheasant, telling the Mail on Sunday: ‘It’s depressing that Kate should be drawn into the Royal habit of killing for fun.There is no tradition of shooting in her family, yet she is now senselessly taking the lives of birds. It seems that you cannot enter the Royal Family’s inner circle without spilling blood for pleasure.’




Kate Middleton watches another waiting "princess"

With families around the world tightening their belts and being unable to take part in their normal evenings of entertainment, it seems that Kate Middleton is indulging as usual.

According to the Day & Night column in the Daily Express, Kate was seen watching the England National Ballet's "Sleeping Beauty" at the Coliseum in Covent Garden.

The ballet, which has a rather short run of a week and a half, tells the tale of beautiful Princess Aurora who was the victim of an evil spell cast upon her by a nasty fairy. Eventhough the Princess was saved by a good fairy, she was doomed to sleep for 100 years...WAITING...until her handsome prince came along, kissed her and then became her husband. Perhaps Kate was taking notes?

Kate Middleton's brother caught doing bizarre things with a dead squirrel

With Kate Middleton being criticised for taking part in cruel blood sports, it seems that it must run in the family with her younger brother now coming under increased scrutiny for his involvement in social shoots.

In what can only be described as bizarre, a series of pictures have emerged of James Middleton in strange poses with friends and dead animals. The most unusal are the pictures of the youngest Middleton and friends playing with a dead squirrel, going so far as to pose with it in several photographs.​

James, his friends and the squirrel.

In other pictures, James readily poses with dead birds obviously slaughtered in social hunts. Even stranger still are the various pictures of Middleton and his friends in highly sexual poses, often dressed in women's clothing or very intoxicated. All photographs are readily available on various internet sites.​

Late night date for Kate Middleton and her Prince (but what's with the beard, William?)

Nights on the town have been a rarity for Kate Middleton and Prince William in recent months, but the couple made up for lost time with a visit to London's Whisky Mist.

The pair were spotted arriving at the bar - a popular royal haunt - at 12.30am where they partied until the early hours of this morning.
And while Kate, who enjoyed dinner at Eight Over Eight restaurant in Chelsea with sister Pippa earlier in the evening, was dressed to the nines in an electric blue dress, it was her boyfriend's facial hair that was attracting all the attention.

Date night: Prince William and girlfriend Kate Middleton hit Whisky Mist bar at 12.30am this morning

Hair to the throne: William appears to have grown rather attached to his beard, which he apparently grew during a recent mission in the Caribbean

It seems the prince, who is said to have stopped shaving while on a recent anti-drug smuggling exercise with the Special Boat Service in the Caribbean, has become rather attached to the rugged look.
It is believed that he grew the beard in an attempt to disguise his identity during the 10-day mission.
It's something of a family tradition - his father, the Prince of Wales, sported facial hair while serving in Alaska in 1975, as did William's grandfather Prince Philip during his own wartime service aboard HMS Valiant.

Dressed to the nines: Kate wore an electric blue party frock, which proved to be a little too revealing at one point

Sibling revelry: Earlier in the evening, Kate dined at a Chelsea restaurant with sister Pippa

However the look will be short lived - next year he joins the RAF, where beards are banned.
‘Waity Katie’, as she has become known because of her apparent willingness to wait around until William proposes, is said to have been unimpressed with his decision to commit to the RAF for the next seven years.
But there was no signs of strain as they enjoyed their evening on the town.

William and Kate, both 26, recently returned from holiday with friends at Wood Farm on the Queen's 20,000-acre Norfolk estate where they went on a pheasant shoot with Prince Harry and friends.
It was the first time the couple had been photographed together since September, when they attended a friend’s wedding in Austria.
