How many MORE skeletons in Kate Middleton’s closet? – Daily Mail
With the exposure of his girlfriend Kate Middleton’s Uncle Gary as a coke-proffering lout with a lot of money, who spends much of his life loafing around on the holiday island of Ibiza, has shocked her so severely, says a friend, ‘that it’s almost physical’. Prince Charles, her putative father-in-law, has sent her a message urging her to ‘put it out of your mind’…
We should salute Kate Middleton’s mother – and every other ‘pushy parent’ – Daily Mail
The claims about Uncle Gary led to anguished analysis of Kate Middleton’s pedigree. Her mother Carole, a former air stewardess, was a special focus for discussion. She, like Gary, springs from a line of Durham builders and coal miners, and she has in the past been teased by snoots…
Don’t worry, Kate Middleton. My family is bleating with black sheep – Telegraph
Distant relatives are the best – and the further away, the better. That’s my theory of relativity. And, no doubt, Kate Middleton’s, when she thinks about her allegedly drug-taking uncle Gary in Ibiza. No matter your social class, everybody has at least one black sheep in their family flock…
News of the World editor ‘introduced rigorous safeguards’ after Royal hacking scandal – Telegraph
Colin Myler, the editor of the News of the World, has said that he had introduced “rigorous” safeguards to prevent a repeat of the phone-hacking scandal that resulted in the resignation of his predecessor…

Nice looking lady he has on his arms.

Another interesting artical on Kate.

Should people let Kate have some fun? Or should they continue to put more pressure on her and expect her to be the perfect future Queen?

The woman with JM looks familiar, but I can’t place her. I don’t think it’s a GF; too old.
July 22nd, 2009 21:24
I don’t think I have ever seen that lady before but it’s good to see James out and about while the media is going crazy over his family. I guess it goes to prove that these are going about their daily lives no matter what.
July 22nd, 2009 23:09
In the close up of JM, his eyes don’t seem to hold their normal sparkle.
I think there is a new article on the DM called:
“Kate Middleton’s Uncle, his ex-wife and the hellraising that tore them apart.”
I’m using a laptop right now and am unable to copy and paste the link. The article has some interesting insights about Carole, her brother, and the ex-wife.
Ked, say something- I’m wondering what your opinion of all of this is, and the suspense is killing me.
July 22nd, 2009 23:18
James looks normal to me but if the normal sparkle isn’t there then I’m not surprised. None of us would have a sparkle in our eyes when the world is trashing your family.
I’m interested in hearing from Ked too but I hope his view is not filled with doom and gloom because we have had enough of doom and gloom lately.

Hey, I love James and his playful nature. But am I the only one who thinks his sister ought to give him a few tips on dressing up?

Pippa and James propably had a crisis meeting. But where was Kate?
July 25th, 2009 12:23
I wouldn’t have a crisis meeting in a public restaurant.
July 25th, 2009 12:30
Or maybe they just had dinner.
July 25th, 2009 12:51
It’s sad to see that the Middleton siblings are now being intentionally followed. I believe before, paps would just have candid pics of them snapped if (1) Kate was there, or (2) they happened to be in a social event. I hope the media doesn’t bother them too much.

It’s a brother and sister having dinner and a catch up over some Italian feast and a good wine!
July 25th, 2009 18:02
It is time to get over it. The entire thing. Let these people live their lives without interference. If they want to act like idiots let them (no reference to the dinner these two were having). If you happen to fall in love with someone famous (if albeit for a stupid reason they are) then you have to expect some of this even though you cannot help you fall in love with. However, if you court celebrity (which some of these people do) then you deserve what you get.
Live with it.
