^ Very true Rman. AND Sophie’s parents didn’t have a business that requires a certain amount of networking.

Well I think they have done a very good job too. They don’t talk to the media about the royal couple and I think that has caused a great deal of frustration to the media. They are very supportive to Kate and William and they seem to be one big happy family.

really? some may think that Kate’s sister and brother shouldn’t been seen much but I think people seem to forget that they are young and they should be able to go out and enjoy themselves. William don’t seem to have a problem with them going out and at times he even joins them. I think people still expect the future king to have stiff in-laws but thats no longer the case.

There’s no rehearsal for the role Kate or her family are in and I think they’ve all done a commendable job.

I think after all this time the Middletons know what they are dealing with. I think during these years that Kate has been in a relationship with William, the Middletons has been dealing with this attention one day at a time. I also think William gives them the comfort they need from time to time.

“you didn’t see sophie’s parents at a club”

That’s true really? but that’s because her parents were older and retired people.

I don’t know Shivs, there had been some down talk about Diana’s father & mother because of the bitter custody battle between them in the early 70’s and people looked down on Sophie’s father because he was a retired tyre salesman but I never really seen such horrible attitudes towards a royal girlfriend’s family.

I know a lot of people got all bent out of shape when the press pinpointed the issue of snobbery towards the Middletons but it was the truth. Also there has been soo many silly tabloid articals about this family that it really did influence the way people think about them.

We really like to avoid this topic because is produces horrible arguments on this site and other sites but I do believe a great deal of misunderstandings is partly the blame for the high level of scrutiny the Middletons has been under.

i think other famlies were minor

i thnk to some extent the middletons are unprotected because they have no idea what they are dealing with

i also think they do like to be out and about and that lays them out for a stoning

you didn’t see sophie’s parents at a club for example
