pretty hard to deny that one really isn't it.

Maybe Will and Kate are back together but in public they pretend the're not to avoid harassment by the papparazis.

[rominet09]

I think there is no way to avoid the papparazzi : they didn't stop after the break up.

Hmm, lol, I was just reading online about how the truth is Prince William can't decide if he should get back together with her or not and Prince Harry thinks he should just move on with his life, lol. According to that article, Prince William has also changed his mind on the marriage issue, hehe.

This is the point...The Prince wants not to marry. As most of Princess and Princesses being young nowadays...They seems to hate marriage. Back in history, Princes married to young; in fact, they seemed to rush on matrimony (a thing that is not always good, except if you are really, but really in love, a thing I suppose they were not for almost all these state-reasons weddings, were arranged by third persons). Nowadays, they marries too late. Even at forty ...Why not a sane "middle-point"? Why not marrying at 25 or 30? Hummm..Nowadays people (not only Princes), seems to be afraid of matrimony...

Going back to our current discussions: if they are back together, why Prince Williams doesn't appears to say simpli: people, we are together again"? Where are his Royal duties? Miss Middleton is a Prince's girlfriend, and a Prince that will be the King of England a day-to-come...If I was her (and was a respectable woman) I should be far away from Prince William, long time ago if he wouldn't do fair play with me...But certainly she must have her own "interest" in all this...

My favorite sentence since 15 years ago or so is: "O tempora, o mores!"

Vanesa.

Maybe KAte doesn't want to get mariried either. Remeber that Dianan used to say that being a princess isn't all milk and honey, and it's not easy at all.Maybe she isn't ready for commitment. But ofcourse that's their own buisness.
I don't think kate has an interest in being with wills. If she wanted to take advantage of their relationship she could have sold her story and be totally loaded right now.
Wills never went out and said 'hey, kate is my girlfriend', what makes you think he will do that know. Plus that will bring their rlationshiop back in the spot light, which more than sure they don't want.

i don't think it's that drastic. it's obvious she lost a bit of weight but if she's training she's building muscle so she looks more toned. the t-shirt fits her totally different from the dress so i really don't think that you could even compare the two photos.

If the "split" really was staged, then they did a wrong move, IMHO.Even if they were really seperated for a time, they were not clever about it. Because IMHO now they are forever cast in the role of reliving the Diana/Camilla-disaster.

If William marries Catherine now, it could be "better the devil you know".
If he does not marry her, she's "Camilla" all over again.
If he marries another, that new princess will be written into a new Diana-position with William secretly harbouring an eternal love for Catherine.

Looked at in one way or the other, the tabloids now have their story, no matter what the truth. A real bad situation, that. And if William is not the type of man to show his affections in public as eg Frederik of Denmark or Willem Alexander of the Netherlands are used to, people will believe the tabloids.

Which will have its effect back on William and Catherine, no doubt. There will be pressures fro the relationship, there need be a deep, deep feeling of trust and belonging, all things that were amiss with Charles & Diana. I personally have my doubts if this feeling can be still there, after the way Catherine was dumped by William.

Sad, that.

How true. William is a Windsor man, after all, and acting as awkwardly as his father and his uncle(s). They should have thought carefully before splitting up because in his case a split must be a split, otherwise the media will jump onto that Diana/Camilla waggon. I hope William doesn't come too much after Charles in terms of hesitating way too long to take the right decision.

I'm sure it was William and Catherine I saw in Gretna Green after the concert!

[Ccile]

I'm really glad if they're back together!! it's such a lovely couple!!!

[ysbel]

I think when the monarchy has to depend on two 24 year olds being media-saavy while going through their first traumatic breakup, the future of the institution doesn't look too bright.

The stinky stuff happens sometimes.

[dodo]

it's not easy dealing with the press , and they don't always get it right, but this doesn't mean they'll run through trouble waters in the future. Plus it's the first time both wills and kate had to deal with such a thing, so it's no wonder they're not getting it righ.

I know many have had this fear and expressed it on this forum, but I personally think we don't have to worry about that. I think the royal family is doing a good job of making sure Prince William doesn't feel pressured to get married, and besides, if Kate is 'the one' I think she will wait for him. She seems to be waiting, at any rate. She has waited and been patient (so it seems) for as long as they've been a couple (since university!) so on the surface, it doesn't look like a case of Charles/Camilla. It looks like Prince William has for many years made his intentions clear to Kate. As an actively dating and steady couple for so long, it is so different from the dynamic of Charles and Camilla in the 70s. Camilla, it seems married APB because, unlike Charles, APB had expressed intention and desire to be with her. This does not seem the case with Wills and Kate. I think they are very clear on how they feel for each other.
As dodo has pointed out here, they have certainly sent out a lot of positive signals.

Personally I do hope they are together, or will get together again in the future. Kate seems genuine and down to earth, mkaing a more modern monarchy. Perhaps neither of them or ready for marriage yet and are enjoying a steady relationship. Maybe they have broken up but are still close confidantes. Nobody truly knows but themselves. Either way I hope they make the right decisions for themselves and their futures.

Hello!
No happy ending for the couple according to readers. In a poll conducted by the magazine readers do not think the couple will get their relationship back on track
