It's always spin doctor PR, nothing cordial, nothing straight from heart. it was maybe in case of Queen Mother when she had experience with looking after in injured soldiers during WWI. Kate just snubbed RSVP and another actions for soldiers, she apparently leaked to the press some stupid attacks on some female soldier flying in dangerous Afghanistan, how she's Barbie and takes blow dryer with her [probably Kate can't go to disco club without hair maintenance, that's why she expects it from every girl], which angried all soldiers. Kate is unpopular within armed forces, calling her names. Think they sealed or closed some FB account of another Kate Middleton, Kate showed her intime parts many times on cameras by her own will. It's funny they call her Princess Willy right now in Ireland, but I don't think this label of damaged goods with workshy image makes her any good. mainly not for RF. She's ticking bomb. I was suprised, when FB disabled FB page of Hotter than July, which is quite very artistic display of naked bodies in good way, curated by Savannah Spirit. It's big buzz online and in press. I read somewhere arguements flying about sense of censorship,arts, FB, Playboy on FB and it's ok, former art history student Kate Middleton and her circa 6 images where she liber. shows her crotch and jokes how this woman can step into Westminster Cathedral, what's artistic nude body with covered crotch, Savannah Spirit, where is it ***ography. It's double measurement for different people, but I don't think some staged action will not take Kate closer to army or traditions. She missed what she could missed during her 8 years old apprent. and she has learnt nothing.
dove88, if you are referring to the Fashion for the Brave event, then you should note that Kate was not the only one that didn't turn up at that event and furthermore the press failed to address the reasons as to why Kate would have been invited in the first place. Whose to know just how many invites Kate received prior to her engagement? It was quite right of Kate not to attend because if she had....then the press would have accused her of exploiting her royal connections and not just the press.
What exactly did Kate
supposedly leak to the press?
how she's Barbie and takes blow dryer with her [probably Kate can't go to disco club without hair maintenance
.
Is there a pic out there showing a hairdryer in her bag only I have been busy of late and clearly I have a lot of catching up to do regarding royal news stories? I thought Barbie was blonde, busty and thick lipped has Mattel Inc altered it's product?
which angried all soldiers
What are you talking about? My cousins are soldiers, they not angry at Kate, but they are angry at politicians and the further defence cuts. I do not understand as to how you can claim that Kate is unpopular within the armed forces. What exactly do you base this on?
Kate showed her intime parts many times on cameras by her own will
Were you present when Kate was papped and witnessed for yourself Kate emerging from taxis telling paps, "Her boys get ready......here's an intimate parts shot?" I very much doubt it. Therefore, how can you say this was deliberate? Again, what is this allegation based on if anything?
When Diana married into the RF, Princess Margaret took her aside and actually coached Diana on how to get into and out of a car and warned her of the unscrupulous behaviour of the press. Margaret should know because she herself was subject to a certain pap who dogged her every move, but times were different back then because the press were still in awe of the RF during the 60's consequently the press didn't print those kind of pics.
It's funny they call her Princess Willy right now in Ireland, but I don't think this label of damaged goods with workshy image makes her any good.
I think you have misinterpreted this article.
Belfast Telegraph The article is poking fun of the still archaic and chauvinistic approach to titles, it isn't making fun of Kate.
i don't remember any of the brides actually leaving the bouquets themselves - am i right? are they (or one of the alternate bouquets) delivered later by staff?

Hi ap3, always good to see you.
The QM was the first to do this. The tomb of the Unknown Soldier is located just inside of the Abbey via the West Gate and is the only floored tomb you cannot walk on. As the QM was exiting the Abbey on her wedding day she left her bouquet. It was a sponteanous action on her part. Here is one of the official wedding pics taken back at the palace. Note the QM does not have a bouquet.
http://www.gettyimages.co.uk/detail/3300993/Hulton-Archive Your quite right, the brides themselves do not leave their bouquets.
To now lay her bouquet is pure and utter spin. She should be ashamed of herself
When Kate sends her bouquet to be laid on the tomb of the Unknown Soldier she will not only be carrying on a tradition started by the late Queen Mother, but she would have by then also married into the RF who have a long tradition of supporting our armed services. Both traditions are honourable and greatly valued and Kate will have
nothing to be ashamed of. The shame would have been
not to have her bridal bouquet laid on the tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
So Kate is going to be doing something that is a tradition going all the way back to the Queen Mother. And Kate gets slammed from one side of the wall to the other. What ... ? We'd better get used to Kate doing a lot of traditional things from now on, because whether she chased William unashamedly or played hard-to-get, he couldn't have gotten caught unless he wanted to be.

Well said Cindy.
