Well, if William and Kate were trying to make an incognito booking, "Mr and Mrs Mountbatten-Windsor" wouldn't have been the most intelligent choice.
From the article -
Months apart, so they haven't seen each other on weekends .....Kate Middleton has already endured months apart from Prince William as he concentrates on his military career.
And now she is facing even more time alone when he transfers to Wales at the end of the month. ---- ‘It’s going to be a testing time for William and Kate because he will be expected to knuckle down. He will be mastering the basic elemental techniques of search and rescue and there will be no holidays
I do not like Ms Nicholls articles at any time but in this there is one piece of information that caught my attention more than any other. It says it is the first time that Kate Middleton will be at Balmoral when the Queen is in residence, which I understand means that she isn´t actually an invited guest but has the permission to be there at that time. Eight years to get this far, not exactly a speedy progress but it is a step forward for sure.
Nice photo of William though, he looks really good in uniform.
Kate could have been to Balmoral several times for all we know. It doesn't have to be officially announced who the Queen's guests are, does it?
It doesn't have to be announced no. But William hasn't been to Balmoral in some years and I doubt that Kate would go without William.
I would have thought it would be pretty difficult to say with any level of certainty that William has not been to Balmoral in some years. We are just not privy to what he may be doing in his own time, unless you have specific information that lends more credence to your statement.
They have also been known to drive there. I can't see how anyone could say with certainty that William has not been to Balmoral over a long weekend. If HM is in residence and they are staying at Tam Na Ghar, which isn't that distant, it is entirely possible they have been over for tea!It's not difficult to track William at Balmoral as the royals fly to Aberdeen airport and are spotted before driving to the estate.
I don't get what the press sees. She is just not very pretty(imo) and she looks worn.
This is the same girl who called the PCC a few years ago, for her to talk to the press, even if it is at a marketing show, it is so out of character for how she has been in the past.
Her voice is fine but she looked very plain indeed, she isn´t the pretty girl she was 8 years ago for sure.
Or perhaps she was simply caught off guard by someone going about the seminar with a camera asking for reactions. She sounds as if she didn't have much time to think about how she was going to answer the questions -- it seems pretty off the cuff.
