If they did attend the event, all the press would focus on is Kate's dress and not the event or the reason behind it.
The royals can't help with the media will write but that shouldn't stop the Cambridge's from attending very important events like the Festival of Remembrance and even State Banquets. I also think it's a shame that they don't attend these kind of events.
The royal couple and their aides can no longer use the excuses of them not attending important events like this because of their military life back in Anglesey and we know they have a nanny for George.
I would imagine attendance at such an event would be at the invite of the Queen. I'd also wager a box of donuts that if the Queen had invited the Cambridges to be there, they most certainly would be. Granny just has to ask first. We can't assume that they're not at the Festival because they don't want to be or had other plans or they can't find a babysitter. I don't think they can just decide they want to go and show up.
If that's the case, then I think The Queen should start asking and inviting the Cambridge's. I think The Queen is just used to inviting the same people to these important events over and over again.
Well i think peopleare only treating him like that as he nowdoesn't have a job, when he did the public and even the media to an extent left William to get on with it.
I think saying if William attends the other grandchildren will have to be invited it a bit off as it was only the Cambrigdes and Harry invited onto the balcony at teh Jubilee.
Exactly, if he's still going to be missing major events like the Festival of Remembrance then he might as well have stayed in the military for a few more years.
LAst time I looked the Queen was Head of the Royal Family. If she is content then some of you are just going to be doomed to disappointment. Its a tad sad for the rest of us who accept how it works that you are going to be spending the next year at least moaning about it.
The Festival of Remembrance is not a major event - the Cenotaph Service is.
I don't think any of us are moaning about anything but just thought that now that William's military career is over and that he and Catherine are focusing more on official duties and their charities, some thought the could start attending these big events.
Cepe, it's not about moaning.

A nanny can't breastfeed.
It's not normal solution. There is no reason to do this. George is Kate's priority as it should be for any mammy.But Kate can express milk and chill it to preserve it. The nanny can use that for feedings.
I know that's TMI for a lot of you, but it is true.

Unfortunately some babies won't take a bottle if they are breastfeeding, so pumping isn't always an option. Not saying this is the case for George though.
I accept some may be disappointed but there are some who do complain. I think that is unreasonable because (1) we were told that they were not taking up full time duties immediately (2) The Queen makes the ultimate decisions so if she wants them there, they will be and (3) William is not heir to the throne.
Yes it would be nice to see them more but those 3 points say to me that is not happening immediately (I expect a slow build up) as they settle their private living arrangements (more staff I hope, including a f/t nanny), William learns more about the Duchy and talks with the DoE about taking some stuff of his hands. It takes time (especially the latter as DoE probably doesn't want to let go).
And there is no point in comparing them to CP couples because they are not a CP couple.
I've answered your post Dman - please don't think this is specifically about you.
