Kate Middleton And Prince William, A Royal Couple For The Ages


Whatever you think of Kate Middleton and Prince William there is no question they make a very special pair, which makes them a royal couple for the ages, who will be remembered for decades to come.

The fascination with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge has reached new heights during their royal tour of the Land Down Under (New Zealand and Australia).

Everywhere they go, anything they do, anything they wear gets scrutinized all over the world. Kate Middleton has single-handedly brought down websites that get flooded with requests of whatever outfit she is wearing to this or that event.

Same goes for the couple’s gorgeous royal baby, Prince George, who turns nine-months-old on Tuesday.

But why is this particular couple so special? After all we had Princess Di (William’s late mother), who started this superstar trend in the royal family. Remember how she overshadowed her awkward looking husband, Prince Charles?

Back then, what Diana did had never been done before. The royal family was steeped in traditions that were not easily broken and the Princess of Wales changed all that. It was not easy for her, but she did it and thanks to her Prince William is one of the most “normal” royals in history (along with his brother Harry) and Kate Middleton has only made that more apparent.

For a time, it seemed William and Harry would go down the path of destructive behavior followed by many of the privileged in Britain, but as they have aged, both young men are showing the world that they are not just about spending the money their subjects work so hard for, but giving back.

William, Kate, and Harry, to a great extent, are heavily involved in several worthwhile charities to which they each give inordinate amounts of their personal time.

But the reason we are all obsessed with Kate and William is obvious. They’re young, beautiful and seem to genuinely care for each other, in a very endearing way.

The royals are experts at projecting an image of perfection. They know how to act in awkward situations, they are trained to make small talk about a number of topics with virtual strangers, and the smile and pose for photographers.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are not your usual royal couple as has been evident in their interaction during the tour to Australia and New Zealand. They are competitive with each other, yet loving. Kate definitely brings out the best in the sometimes awkward Prince, who is still his father’s son, but seems to take his wife’s lead without a problem (as opposed to what Charles did with Diana). They act like you would expect any other newly married, in-love couple does. Hopefully the pressures of their station in life won’t change them in the end.
