Hi folks
Its sad that people in defending Kate Middleton, choose to portray marriage to William as being a fate worse than death, and that therefore she must love him so much.
Maybe others [including myself] have seen William growing up - yes, by media in most instances - and have seen the sensitive and caring lad who was and is so protective of his mother, father and brother, and we just want to see him with someone who makes him feel so confident in their love, that no amount of media coverage can make him feel so uncomfortable in showing his pride and love in public. I'm not talking about endless open displays of hugs, etc. Real love doesn't hide behind doors whether you are a Prince or just Joe Blogs.
I get a horrible feeling inside, that he is the one at a disadvantage, trapped by the Royal connection, damned if he leaves her, damned if he doesn't. I am into astrology, and even his charts the next couple of years show troubled energy around him. Kate has to show more independance, whether it be taking up a career or getting involved in a cause true to her heart. Hanging on in there, just waiting for the cue to go on stage, doesn't convince me that she is going to be a source of strength and comfort to William. And, after going though that awful inquest into Diana's death and that ghastly Paul Burrell's constant blurbs, it is now that he really needs a "strong" loving relationship - privately and publicly.
Whoever he marries, I hope that she really is his soulmate, and if not, I'll forgive him should he have to "stray" in order to find it.
Cheers
