Well that would be the end of the world a royal who acts like a celebrity...not to mention the recent claims envolving her sister...if after all that she still behaved like a hienna as she used to that swould be the end of the world  :teehee:
Besides i think she shot herself...since such behaviours screams im a princess and wants excluseve tratement...and obviouslly  ended up sounding very arrogant and celebrity like... :shrug:
Obviousll the midds onyl want attention when they want to...aparentlly...when they want to be left alone...
No big deal..ive seen it a 1000000000 times  :orchid:

Anyway i also dont see where her work stands...smiling..smiling..sm iling..nothing prodictive or that make a diference for her..royals or people that most importantlly she done nothing but gala and dressing to fit such galas and smiling, smiling...smiling...
If thats working i think she should quit the political pretending part and do nothing but shopping or sleeping all day...coz honestlly that would end up being the same...

At least in my view...she havent done nothing that can be called work so she dont deserves any vacaation..yet!
The timing were totally wrong..me thnks at least....

Here  we go  again...
YES,  she  can ,  will,  take  big,  vacations.

However,  sophie and others,  no , she  has  not  really  done  anything yet  except  for glam  parties. Glam events.  Traditional  events  like the horse races.
Very easy  things. Co-chair/co-star, for lack  of  a better  word  by  me, with PW.
NO,  she  does  not  have  work  365  days  a  year  or  have  a diary  to  rival that of  PCharles  or  PAnne. No,  Kate,DoC,  does  not  have  to  go trekking  off  to  perilous  places  like  Diana  did.
Kate,DoC  should  do  some  real  meat and potato's , some  deep  charities  by  now  and  right  there  in The UK.

The  perks  of her  life  are  unlimited.  The wealth  she  will  come  into  one  day of jewels,  castles, etc.  are  priceless. No,  really  are  priceless  because these  things  are  worth  so  much  that they are  indeed  priceless.
Already Kate ,DoC,  has  rec'd  items  that  are priceless  just  because they are  hers" Diana's  engagment ring,  jewels  from those  Arabs  for  her  wedding gifts, etc.

The  price  she has  to  pay  is  duty and service  to  her  people  and  to  her country.  Her  price  is  never, NEVER having  privacy  on thins  like umm,  when  she and her  husband  do  have their  first  child,  the  reporters  will  calculate  the date of  conception  ...where  K and W were  at  the  date  of conception(  which  castle), place( Wales  or  England).
Who  would want  that  out  about  themselves.

Yes,  talk about  a fishbowl  life. Being a  historic  figure  for  her country.
So yes,  she  can, will,  go  on  high  end vacations  whenever.

Where  is  her  work,  though?


why are we suppose to feel sorry for her leaving in the fish bowl, she chose this life when she decide to wait for 9 years to get the ring, William said he give her time to back out but she chose to stay put.  Since she more than willing to put on the high fashion and vacation around the world for free more than you and i can dare too, in exchange for her to show up at a event smile shake hands and pretend to care  and leave yet she is still dragging her feet to do something. I hope after this ''TEN DAYS'' Vacation  she is not going to lock herself up in wales again instead do something not because the camera are there or the PR force her too because  it about time 11month is more than enough non of other princess have gotten that much of time like her they must be rolling on their grave....


Well that would be the end of the world a royal who acts like a celebrity...not to mention the recent claims envolving her sister...if after all that she still behaved like a hienna as she used to that swould be the end of the world  :teehee:
Besides i think she shot herself...since such behaviours screams im a princess and wants excluseve tratement...and obviouslly  ended up sounding very arrogant and celebrity like... :shrug:
Obviousll the midds onyl want attention when they want to...aparentlly...when they want to be left alone...

:goodpost:AGREE!!! smile and wave for  ''TEN DAYS VACATION'' where can i get that job, i will leave my 50hrs law firm for that if that is all i have to do for the rest of my lives!!!  :orchid:

I  totally  agree  with  you, good221,  and anitlala.  What I  mean  by  "here  we  go  again..." is that some  here  think she should  be eased  into  her  role  as  per  PW   has  insisted  , rumor  has  it,  because  he  saw all  that  his dear  Mother went through. I  totally agree with  you.  Kate-Diana-total  different people  in totaly  different  circumstances  in totally  different  times, etc.
K,DoC  will  live  a  life  of  riches  beyoned the weathiest  of  wealthy  people. No  privacy  is the deal.  The  perks and material items are  endless and  priceless.
Ummm, where  is her  work, tough?

The current political, social and economic climate are currently at work here!
The media (and forum posters) can spin this story however it suits their opinion of Kate, her family, and ultimately William and the Monarchy. Regardless of whether I feel it's right, wrong, or indifferent, it's not going to impact how Kate and William live their life  :hehe: . However (as Im sure Kate is well aware) the Royal Family relies on the media to drive positive public opinion and continued support. We are seeing more and more Commonwealth nations moving away from the Queen as their head of state, and if the monarchy looses touch with the people the consequences could be severe.
I'm not suggesting that Kate and William's vacation could bring about a downfall of the British Royal family  :hehe: , but I do believe that it is the people who have the ultimate say - and there are a lot of comments out there from fed up individuals!

Couldnt agree more...sometimes to defend theyre favs people can say things like theyre lifes are theyre lifes and public media opinions dont matter..i totally agree they do!
They might not change our lifes...what they do or not...but theyre lifes depending on the number of negative opinions and the constant of it...it does will affect theyre lifes...

From time immemorial the royal family have taken vacations at certain times of the year. That will never change and the monarchy will survive another 1,000 years or so in the British Isles. Wait and see.  :wink: Some  countries in the Commonwealth that can finally stand on their own two feet will have their own head of government. That has been going on for ages too, since the end of Empire. I think the queen is very pleased with what Kate has done, is doing and will do. Kate and William will serve her well during this Diamond Jubilee year and already did her proud in other countries.

There hasn't been any news in the UK regards to their holidays. Do you think the William has something to do with this? For fear of backlash from the public? Just wondering.

First we have the article in the Telegraph which stated that the couple thought it best to not go skiing this winter as it was thought to be inappropriate given consideration for the economic climate.  Then ... literally weeks later, same couple all over the papers jetting off to a luxurious holiday island for some r and r.  Way to go, guys.  Shoot yourselves in the foot, why don't you.

The timing is really lousy.  Probably would have been a better idea to have had a weekend skiing this winter and leave it at that.  Oh, well.  And using the excuse of another Middleton birthday this month (and therefore the reason for the trip) just doesn't cut it.

I too feel pretty bad for the other guests on the island who have paid good money to be there if they are indeed finding that this high profile family being there is managing to tread on everyone else's toes.

No one is saying Kate and her family shouldn't have holidays, but this particular trip should have waited until much later in the year, post the Jubilee celebrations for sure, in my view.

^^ The difference is this particular trip is being funded by the Middletons.  The ski trip would have been funded by William and Kate.

We don't know who is paying for it. That will never be absolutely confirmed, it is just hear say.

:nod:
Not only that but the paper that said that Kate and Will weren't going skiing then as usual was dead wrong because they never go skiing that time of year. Their ski holiday time is coming up soon and they may take it if Will has any time off left. As we have discussed this holiday is to celebrate Carole's birthday and it's nobody else's business how much the Middleton's spend on their holidays with their family. I'm sure when Pippa and James marry, their spouces will be included as well. Most all the news I've read about this holiday has been printed in Britain so I can't figure why it was missed there. :shrug:

We can choose to believe William and Kate paid for it, or we can choose to believe the Middletons paid for it.  Since the Middletons take their vacation each year at this time, and since it's a birthday trip for both Kate and Carole, it's logical to believe the latter, rather than the former.

Oh yeah is hard to dress well..win jewels and travel to luxury williams where they should in my view form now own rent the entire island...since they want privacy and noone talking or looking at them...

Seriouslly what have these people done besides make more money coz of the association with royals...an sell theyre daugher to the world as she was a new products of media enjoyment ( not that she didnt liked it..anyway)...
As for kate what has she done to deserve such vacation...
In my view it doesnt matter who paide for it...but the menaing of it...vacation of what????
What have they done to deserve it???What has she done o deserve it???

Seriouslly...joke!

I agree, anitalalala.  It doesn't matter who paid for it.  And Wilkat, I presumed the Telegraph article about the skiing trip was referring to what would have been their next one and not one about to be taken immediately.

Here's a tweet of a musician hired in Mustique, his connection is Sir Mick Jagger.  He played this past Thursday at a party, William and Catherine danced all night.

im not inclined to believe in tweets i dont know why...but anyway..i hope next time they travle they have a good reason to do so...and most of all they deserve it...coz this time in my personal view they didnt deserved...and obviouslly they rent a private island..no matter who pay for it...coz obviouslly they only have caused problems and bad opinions among others guests...for wanting total privacy wich aparentlly they didnt get at all..

Many people aparentlly complained about it...te musicians have tweeted about it...seriouslly...its a mess..
And i honestlly havent seen a positive thing about this vacation to be posted...yet!
There is no reason for this...not at a good time...too much negativism about it...coz of all the reasons listed already as well with ridiculus demands made by them...seriouslly too much negativism and bad publicity and for nothing..in my view...
Nothing that a good old charity with some gala dinner or something like that...wit the lazy but golden couple smiling and making money for a cause...wouldnt change or maybe erase such trip...in the mind of some...
I guess thats simply what gonna happen..what to do?

Its not up to the public if any of the royals deserve or not a holiday -- all the royals take holidays, some of them have very strong patterns.
