No wonder people don’t envy Kate Middleton. First came reports that she’s become too thin ahead of her wedding day. Now, the tabloid press have revived rumours that she’s pregnant.
The cover of this week’s Star celebrity gossip magazine bears the headline “Pregnant Bride!” (It’s not the first time the magazine’s been onbaby alert.) According to iVillage.com , the story cites an unnamed palace source who says Ms. Middleton and Prince William will announce they’re expecting a baby soon after their honeymoon. Rival Us Weekly, however, reports that royal officials say the pregnancy rumours are completely untrue.
Thank goodness no one is yet pointing out phantom baby bumps – although the way her every move is scrutinized, it’s a safe bet that a pregnancy belly-watch will begin the minute she’s photographed in a bulky sweater or indulging in a jelly doughnut.

Review: William and Kate – The Movie
![]() |
| Kate Middleton |
With less than a week to go untilthe Royal Wedding, the media frenzy is hitting overdrive, and now, we have possibly the most cringeworthy addition yet: William and Kate – The Movie.
The film, which follows the couple from their very first meeting at St Andrews University, through the trials and tribulations of their relationship, was made by Lifestyle in the US, and aired today on Channel 5 on this side of the pond.
At 1hour 45minutes once the inevitable ad breaks which comewith made for tv movies are added in, the film feels long, and perhaps it would be more easily digested in an hour, as currently its cringe inducing style just feels like it outstays it’s welcome.
The film also takes some serious liberties with the truth for the sake of keeping the narrative going. There are certain scenes which just don’t come across as even vaguely believable, and are pushing the bounds of even what is acceptable in cheesy rom-com territory.
One particularly funny sequence sees the future king serenade hisbeloved in a karaoke bar to show her that he is sorry. If this genuinely happened, I’ll eat my own hat (or one of the ones which the royal women will wear come Friday).
As the film reaches it’s finale – the proposal in Kenya – the CGI backdrop is just shocking to look at, and it makes you wonder why they even bothered to show it, as the penultimate scene could have closed the film just as well, without bringing it down any further into the mire.
That being said, while the film – which was made on a shoestringbudget – is almost unforgivably bad, it actually succeeds in beingso bad it verges on incredibly funny.
Taking a script that’s so bad it feels like it was written over lunch, and a series of actors who I honestly don’t believe know the meaning of the word, the overall combination genuinely makes something far better thanthe sum of its parts.

Royal wedding: Kate Middleton likely to drop 'outdated' obey vow
![]() |
| Kate Middleton |
And with the royal wedding less than a week away, there is growing speculation that Kate Middleton will drop what is increasingly seen as an anachronism from her own vows.

| Kate Middleton |
Diana, Princess of Wales, set a precedent in 1981 when she promised only to “love, comfort, honour and keep” the Prince of Wales.
The Archbishop of Canterbury’s comment earlier this week that Prince William and Miss Middleton had “thought through what they want for themselves, but also what they want to say” has been interpreted as a clue that they want to take their vows as equals.
Dr Rowan Williams might even have encouraged Miss Middleton to leave out the vow of obedience, as he has said in the past that for a bride to promise obedience without her husband doing the same is an outdated idea that could be used to justify domestic violence.
The Rev Rod Thomas, a member of the General Synod and chairman of the evangelical group Reform, said: “It’s relatively rare for people to make a vow of obedience these days.

Kate Middleton hits the high street
With just over a week to go till the wedding of the year, Kate Middleton took some time out from last minute preparations to enjoy a spot of retail therapy.
Did she head to Bond Street? Harrods perhaps? No, Ms Middleton chose to pop into high street favourite, Warehouse, on King’s Road, Chelsea.
According to the Daily Mail, she arrived with a bodyguard at 4.30 and spent time picking out a range of summer frocks.
An assistant said: “She was really nice and friendly.”
Warehouse’s PR Team released a statement saying: “Kate Middleton has just popped into our King’s Road store and has picked up some amazing summer pieces!”
The stunning bride-to-be is said to have spent £225 on four summer items, including a poppy print bandeau dress for £60 and a one shouldered feather dress for £45.
Kate’s purchases are perfect for a hot summer getaway and could be heading for the honeymoon suitcase…. The destination of the Royal couple’s romantic break is being kept under wraps with reports suggesting Prince William wants to keep it a surprise.
