The media? You mean the Daily Mail. You're the one who posted the article.
Until William steps down from his civilian career Kate is the full time royal in the Cambridge branch of the family and possibly heading towards being the Anne of the generation, should the solo engagements gather momentum, although in terms of actual engagements will probably never come close.
Six years ago today when she became a member of the RF, the thoughts of taking on such an engagement would have definitely daunted if not terrified her! With good reason, back then, completely unequipped for the task!
In the eight/ten year apprenticeship as royal GF she probably mastered the arts of patience, sustainment and discretion. The next six would have been a whole new ball game, family life aside.
But she did have a very eased in approach taken which is probably paying off now. I expect at this stage she is relishing the role.
Do you know who else still reads from papers? Queen Elizabeth III disagree about Kate's immersion into her role. She's been in the Royal Family for six years and she is still an incomplete in my opinion. She had some bad PR moments and a tag of being "work shy" (along with William). Her speaking engagements still need some work. Here's a clip on her speech on motherhood this year:

Kate still reads from the paper, and she still hesitates. She, I thought, had some training in public speaking after she married into the Firm. It looks like she still needs some work.

Read more: Duchess of Cambridge makes surprise visit to London terror heroesThe Duchess of Cambridge has paid a surprise visit to survivors of the London terror attacks, quietly meeting with victims and staff at King's Hospital.
The Duchess arrived at the south east London hospital at 1.50pm, for a visit that was not publicised in advance to enable staff to continue to treat those affected without disruption.
In total 14 victims were taken to King’s, one of whom was ‘walking wounded’ and able to leave quickly after being seen by emergency staff.
The remaining 13 required treatment for stab wounds of varying severity. Seven were in a critical condition and are still receiving round-the-clock treatment.
Read more: Kate Middleton Visits London Terror Attack VictimsPrincess Kate made a surprise visit to King’s College Hospital in London on Monday to meet with some of the victims of the city’s June 3 terror attack.
Of the 48 injured, 14 were taken to King’s, with one able to leave soon after. The other 13 needed treatment for stab wounds — seven of whom were in a critical condition and are still receiving constant treatment. (Eight people died in the attack, while the three assailants, who drove through pedestrians on London Bridge and stabbed restaurant and pub-goers in nearby Borough Market, were shot at the scene by police.)
Kate was met by Nick Moberly, the hospital’s chief executive, and professor Julia Wendon. She was also introduced to two of the hospital’s team leaders trained to deal with major incidents, Jane Bond of Gold Command and Silver Command’s Mark Madams.
Where? Who? I missed it!Wow! And people were throwing a fit complaining about Kate disappearing!
Harry has been all over the place other than London and it is worth noting that Catherine's visit, like those of the rest of the royals, has been made when the emergency is over and does not disrupt the hospital nor stress the patients.Some other countries but other than attending the Abbey service for the Westminster victims, Harry hasn't visited any victims or emergency personnel from Manchester or London Bridge
