Princess of Wales. Is anyone else getting a tad fed up of seeing her in the papers every day in another outfit? Is this the Press’s way of annoying MeAgain?

"Kate" fits in tabloid headlines a lot more easily than "Catherine"

> carrying out jobs for the RF

Royal Family / Roger Federer ...
So like all the royals their private life is guesswork ? :-)
No. It’s not guesswork. It’s a need to know basis.
They know and you don’t need to!


'Kate' is a hypocorism for Catherine.

'A hypocorism is a pet name, nickname, or term of endearment — often a shortened form of a word or name. Adjective: hypocoristic. It derives from the Greek word meaning "to use child-talk." '
Absolutely it is, Anne. I may have guessed completely wide of the mark (and indeed, I am well aware that very unhappy people may be able to hide that unhappiness in a mask of happiness to considerable success).

We can only form our opinions on what we see. You make a judgment based on something you see, I make a judgment on something I see. So yes, we are guessing.
No, I don’t get fed up of seeing her in the papers. The press actually make many comments about her ‘recycled’ outfits, which, to you and I, just means we wear something more than once, and good for her.
She strikes me as a down to earth, sensible, have a go, polite, charming young woman, from a loving and supportive family which has embraced William, and in which he is thriving. She’s a total asset to the royals.
Cheers to keep guessing barmaid . :-)
Sick of her ... why cant we have a few weeks of wee Burney with her hatchet face and Amazon box suits? Or a few qwertyiops shape shifters dressed in combat gear and rags. No tattoos or face piercings either. Who does she think she is? She never dyes her hair slush puppy colours and looks happy. Disgraceful. Why doesn't she carry a few protest placards and shout slogans at passing pensioners? She has a lot to learn.
I think she's doing a great job; bring on the day when she's Queen.
I think she is thweet
I like the Princess of Wales - she's a natural getting involved with people at the many events she attends. As for Roger Federer, she has been friends with him for a long time and even was seen playing tennis with him last week at Wimbledon's sister court. Given the chance, I would love to "flirt" with Roger - he looked incredibly suave and handsome when attending Wimbledon.

So someone does not "attack" my post, Smurfchops, I am not getting fed up of seeing her in the tabloids and magazines - better than reading of stabbings, murders, etc.
No complaints here.
More pictures please.
why cant we have a few weeks of wee Burney
yeah ! then we cd nickname here " Fanny Burney" - er who was a eighteenth century authoress - info from her diary is used in the Madness of King George
She seems perfect to me.
Then I could be very wrong. I just say what I see. :-)
oh god the news tonight had video of someone being chopped up. wrong fella.
Would we (including the press) call William hypocoristically anything else; 'Bill, Will, Willy ? So far I've seen nothing but William.

'The name William is a timeless classic with English roots that date back almost a thousand years, yet is still popular today. It means "resolute protector" or "strong-willed warrior" and comes from Wilhelm, of Old German origin. After the name was introduced to England by William the Conqueror at the time of the Conquest, it gained status as a fashionable moniker.'

So let's stick with 'William and Kate', which sounds about right. :0)
Khandro, I think his family call him Wills.
It is rumoured that his childhood nickname of "Wombat" is still used. I have also heard that the Princess of Wales has been known to call him "Baldy".
But those are family nicknames!

I have a nickname, but only those closest to me ever use it. It is not for public consumption or usage!
William calls Harry ‘Harold’.
