George will be fine. The press won’t take against him.
its Charlotte and Louis who will deflect that for him.
George will be fine. The press won’t take against him.I'd much prefer to be an ordinary millionaire than a royal millionaire. Kate did have it tough from the tabloids in the beginning when there were hordes of them following her around but she has it much better now though.
I'd hate to be a royal in the direct line. The worst part for me would be one of my children being heir to the throne. I'd be so worried about George if he were my child. What if he doesn't want to do it? He seems kind of quiet and shy. What if the press take against him? I don't think I could cope with the worry of it. I suppose others would love the idea of it though.
Figuring out what to do with your life is fun too though. I'm not saying they're not massively privileged - they are - but it's not a walk in the park by any means and the closer you are to the throne the worse it seems to be to my way of thinking. Eugenie and Beatrice don't have to figure out what to do with their lives either but they could go off and do whatever they wanted if the felt like it. Zara was free to follow her passion for horses. I'd hate it for my child anyway.George is going to be socialised into it
My worry is for the second and third borns. I find it hard to believe that the heir to the throne doesn't get some sort of preferential treatment. And even then, they're going to be the monarch and that can be hard to grasp for kids - you know, why does my brother get this huge role but not me. Once they grow up, they're probably thankful for their place but it's still a toxic environment to grow up in I think. Especially if the youngsters get dropped under Charles' plans - George will never really have to know the difficulty of finding something to do with your life
Which is what I’d always assumed what Harry meant when he said Charles and William were trapped. Probably poor choice of word but I thought that was the gist.Figuring out what to do with your life is fun too though.

Yes Squire TindallSorry missed original quote but is this referring to Mr Mike Tindall? Thought I was alone in not finding him wonderful. For me he is obsequious around the right people and extremely disingenuous.
I think she was christened Catherine but was always known as Kate until she married. Then she became Catherine. Don't know what her family call her now.I’m sure a quick google search would tell me this. Do Kate’s friends and family call her Kate? Or was she dubbed Kate by the media because it was easier to sell Waitey Katey and to try make her seem more “normal” as Catherine can be seen by some as a posh name.
I’d crease if behind closed doors she was Cat or Cath.
William called her Kate in the engagement interview for ITV News back in 2010 but now he just calls her Catherine.I’m sure a quick google search would tell me this.

Yes, I remember that because it had already been made clear that she was to be Catherine, so I noticed when he called her Kate.William called her Kate in the engagement interview for ITV News back in 2010 but now he just calls her Catherine.
The thing is, if you are in it, you probably don't know any different. Kates family come from a background where they can see the privileges the RF have. How many people really gave a choice in what they do? Choices depend on opportunities. The Royals can choose what they want to do, because they can go to Cambridge despite mediocre A Level results like Charles, get some teacher to do their coursework for them like Harry, walk into dome plush job with 200 days holiday a year like Beatrice. That's quite attractive. I do think Charlite and Louis should not be working Royals and should be told so from now, because it is a toxic system to have them being effectively more and more useless as time goes on.Ya I'd say that is what he meant but I wonder how they view it. They seem to have made their peace with their role and George probably will as well I suppose. It's such a unique position to be in, there aren't many people who understand what it's like.
It seems very early to have made that decisionThe Queen won't be at the Commonwealth Games next month.
Prince Charles expected to stand in for Queen at Commonwealth Games
The monarch made several public appearances to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee - but she was forced to pull out of the thanksgiving service at St Paul's Cathedral after experiencing 'discomfort'.www.dailymail.co.uk
Someone suggested earlier that it may be she needs a hip replacement with all her mobility issues, but she was delaying it until after the jubilee. Seems very likely now.It seems very early to have made that decision
Her mum had one at around the same age so its likely. Still pretty risky to have a GE in your 90’s though.Someone suggested earlier that it may be she needs a hip replacement with all her mobility issues, but she was delaying it until after the jubilee. Seems very likely now.

Why did William refer her to as Kate then?No, she was always Catherine to family and friends, the papers started calling her Kate because it was (a) shorter for headlines and (b) easier to rhyme for punning headlines.
Her uncle in an interview also referred to her as Kate. Personally I see it no difference to someone called Kate putting Catherine on their CV when applying for a job or somesuch.Why did William refer her to as Kate then?
There's no way she went through all of uni being called Catherine
William got better A Level results than Charles and went to St Andrews. Though of course there has been significant grade inflation since. Beatrice did OK too, an A and 2 Bs and Eugenie got 2 As and a BThe thing is, if you are in it, you probably don't know any different.
