Kate Middleton has gone from commoner to royalty with her marriage to Prince William. But marrying a prince does not, apparently, get you out of doing the dishes. Or making the bed. Or scrubbing the floors.
The 29-year-old doesn't plan to launch her royal career for another two years -- once William's military service is completed. For those enjoying a healthy overdose of wedding fever, the future may hold severe withdrawal symptoms as Kate disappears from public life.
Perhaps Kate’s greatest virtue is that she sees her role very clearly as being a support to William. This is already apparent from her dutiful demeanour and her studied determination not to upstage him. It’s no surprise to learn that she likes to run a bath for William to hop into when he comes home from his RAF shift.
She has no desire, it seems, for any independent role: she has told friends she wants to be an old-fashioned housewife for at least two years, before accepting the full mantle of royal duties.
Pippa's ivory satin cowl-necked dress, which she wore as Kate's maid of honor, got worldwide attention. Several Facebook websites were set up to pay homage to her bottom, which was showcased in the form-fitting dress designed by Alexander McQueen's Sarah Burton, the same designer who did Kate's wedding gown.
While everyone one was taking note of Kate Middleton and her style as she tied the knot with Prince William of UK recently, it was her younger sister, Philippa Middleton, 27, who managed to emerge as a new icon for simplistic style with her girl-next-door dresses and effortless charm.
Middleton's role model for army wife: None other than Queen Elizabeth II, who followed Prince Philip to Malta for his two-year stint with the navy, and has said it was one of the happiest times of her life.
