Thank you, I agree 100% SLV!!!!!!
No one from here in the USA will interveiw them for this.... I think TRH William and Harry had done an intervew with Matt Lauer (An American Journalist) right before the concert for Diana. But diffentally agree that it will and should be an UK journalsit for something like this... but I am not sure who is the most = to Barbra Walters in UK sorry, maybe someone could give us an answer?
We are talking about the Queen here not just a future in-law.
I think the idea with the engagement interview can be quite good for the people to get to know the (in this case) wife of their future king. I wonder if William and Kate could get away with just a photo call in the garden considering the media interest they've had for so many years now...
William and Harry were interviewed by Fearne Cotton to for BBC just before the Concert for Diana. Harry also did an interview with Matt Lauer when he was in New York last year.

Oh and btw, a British version of the "Barbara Walters type" I guess could be Michael Parkinson, David Frost or maybe even Piers Morgan
I thought they had done something with Matt Lauer as well. In fact, I am almost positive not that it matters much,
Prince William has been awarded his wings as a fully-fledged helicopter pilot with his girlfriend Kate Middleton by his side.
More details have emerged about the legal action launched against a photographer by Prince William's girlfriend Kate Middleton.
She lacks the spirituality and depth as well as the compassionate heart that Di had, to identify with the vulnerable. What K. does is for show, and it seems from reading that her entire family has major ego issues. .
It is almost surreal that, at the same time, Kate is treated as virtually a member of the Royal Family and is treated like a daughter-in-law by Prince Charles.
She spent the first days of the new decade with William and Charles. The Prince of Wales was alone at Birkhall because Camilla was with her daughter Laura, who had just given birth to twin sons.
So early on New Year's Day, William and Kate flew to Scotland to be with him. They spent five days together, walking, shooting and having meals. Uppermost in William's mind was what a friend describes as his 'horror' at reports that he is being readied to be a 'shadow king', taking over more of the Queen's duties
Well, nobody ever said Prince Charles isn't humorous...
Ok, congratulations to William!
"But today is a day, I think, of great pride for all of the parents, not to mention the girlfriends. We all know how hard our sons have worked in between all the other activities that we don't know about."
I have to admit I agree with some of the things you said, piano, particularly about her family.
It does seem like the Middletons' are looking at William dating their daughter/sister as an opportunity to move up in Britain's class-conscious society. That is the impression I get. But I could be dead wrong though. One thing that sticks out in my mind is James, Kate's younger brother, reportedly boasting around University that his sister was the next Queen of England. If that were true, then the allegations that the Middletons' are exploiting Kate's relationship with William need to be examined.
But then again, from watching that video of Kate at William's RAF ceremony, and her rubbing his back, it shows that the two really are close and care for each other. The allegations that Kate is very manipulative are ridiculous, unless William is a total idiot to allow himself to be taken advantaged of.
As for Kate's behavior with children, that remains to be seen. We have yet to see her interact with other children, so we cannot make any judgements or compare her to Diana.
One thing I have noticed about those who are not Kate fans is that they expect her to be another Diana. There could never be another Diana! She was one in a million in terms of charisma, style and compassion. Let Kate be Kate, and let's see what she has to offer.
Kate isn't Diana. No-one else could be. Diana was Diana, with all her positive qualities and all her faults.
As for comparing the photographers trying to take pictures of Kate's family at Christmas lunch--through the window, no less--and Zaccheus climbing a tree to see Jesus...the mind boggles. Making money is why they want pictures of Kate!
Well, nobody ever said Prince Charles isn't humorous...
Ok, congratulations to William!

How is this for humorours my friend lol Is this another nod to Kate...
You know I took it as a simple acknowledgement that along with the families the girlfriends also knew what the young men had gone through rather than a specific reference to Kate.
I don't think so. I'm sure William wasn't the only one who had a girlfriend out the group of young men. Charles was obviously aware that none of the young men were married yet (I'm sure he found out beforehand), as he didn't mention "wives". Hence, he said "your parents and girlfriends".Prince of Wales pays tribute to armed forces girlfriends in front of Kate Middleton - Telegraph
This articale says Prince Charles actually says he knows how pround the parents and the "girlfriends" must be... I think that is a big nod to Kate...

I agree, I think a sit down would be a good PR move, that is if she's prepared for it. She could just as easily be a Carolyn Bessette figure and be very uncomfortable speaking.
