Royal Finances report released: William and Kate asked for two kitchens, spent £6 million so Will could go take a flying job near Anmer

Two Kitchens Kate!  That’s Kate’s new nickname (thanks Daily Mail 😉 ; they come up with the best nicknames for Kate—they came up with “Waity Katie” after all).  The royal finances report was released.  Go here to view the report on the royal website.  For a great explanation of the finances, go here to read […]

General Royal News Kate Middleton Prince William

Kate’s palace costs the public £4 million (up £3 million from last year)

The Daily Mail has published an article that is sure to rile up some people. The Palace’s expense reports come out next Wednesday, I think, but the Mail got a preview of the total cost of the renovations to Apartment 1A, otherwise known as Prince William and Kate Middleton’s 22-plus room Kensington Palace home. In […]

Prince William and Kate release new family photo with Prince George (and Lupo!)

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have released a new family photo for Mother’s Day (in the UK, which is March 30 – in the US, Mother’s Day isn’t until May).  The photo features Prince William, Kate, Prince George, and Lupo at the window of Kensington Palace.  William has his arm around Lupo, and Kate […]

Kate spent £1 million on KP and doesn’t like the paint, apparently + William preforms an investiture while Kate attends a party

This is a catch-all post for some Will and Kate news before I move on. Kate apparently isn’t happy with the color scheme in her newly redecorated Kensington Palace apartment. They spent £1 million of taxpayer money to fix it up, and now she wants to change stuff. A source said, “she wasn’t happy with […]

KP released OZ/NZ tour details: Will and Kate are definitely bringing George

Kensington Palace released the official details for Will and Kate’s royal tour of Australia and New Zealand.  And guess what… George is going!  Of course he is.  Was that really ever debated?  I guess the palace was trying to play coy for months, but their efforts were a waste of time.  We will see George […]

Kate is still looking for a new, full-time nanny

I’ve been debating whether to comment on this latest article about Kate looking for a new nanny, because I thought we had already known that.  This is kind of a throwaway post, but the Kate news has been light after the flurry of stuff a few weeks ago, so why not?  Also, there are interesting […]

Kate and Will looking for a new nanny, but they’re still whitewashing their lives

Kate and Will are looking for a new nanny to take with them when they go on tour to Oz and NZ in April.  Their current nanny, Jessie Webb, 71, has “reached the end of her contract” and doesn’t want to stay on anymore since she only agreed to come out of retirement—she was William’s […]

Princess Michael, part 2: William, Kate and Harry’s living arrangements

I decided to break this post up into two parts, because it was getting far too long for one post (even though I have done long posts in the past).  It seemed like it should be broken up, the first post was about Princess Michael, and this second post is about her comments on William, […]

Princess Michael, part 1: “Princess Pushy” or not so bad?

Princess Michael of Kent has given a new interview to Tatler magazine, and there is a story about it with some excerpts in the Daily Mail.  She is surprisingly candid for a royal.  Being a royal, I would expect her not to talk about other royals, especially William, Kate and Harry.  There is nothing too […]

Winter Whites Gala with Prince William, Taylor Swift, and no Kate Middleton

Centrepoint’s Winter Whites Gala was held last night at Kensington Palace.  Prince William attended the event, Kate did not.  Taylor Swift attended the event, as did Jon Bon Jovi and Colin Firth (!).  The Winter Whites Gala is basically a yearly fundraiser put on by Centrepoint to aid homeless teens and new adults.  I’m surprised […]
