    I find totally absurd the way they tell these stories. How can someone tell all these details about Kate searching something in a so private place as her bedroom and what she fell and said to William? (they want we believe as a royal gf she has people around her all the time?). And how they would have a so close and posed pic of her dog? (I know it was just a picture of any dog but they put as it was Kate’s dog).
    Sometimes they are so nonsense that insteady to be angry you can only laugh…

    Piers Morgan has decided to make a list of the most important 100 celebs in England ( he’s up to number 77 ) – he mentioned Harry by name in the intro as the only royal that would meet his criteria, so I’m guessing he’s somewhere on the list. Which is ironic, since Harry supposedly asked if Piers Morgan was really as big of a prat as he seemed on TV not very long ago.

    Here’s the article;

    I don’t know if the Kate story is true or not ( I agree, how could they possibly know about a private conversation between William and Kate unless they are bugging his phone again?) but if it is, she can take heart – my sister’s cocker spaniel ate a necklace my grandmother had given her and what goes down does indeed come back up again, although worse for the wear.

    I thought for her b’day she and her sibs were at the Potting Shed with PW and he presented her with a cake he baked himself. Maybe the earrings were in the cake, hmmm?

    What a morooon that KN is.

    This is a very interesting article- Photography under threat: The shooting Party’s Over:

    ^^^ hmm – interesting. Reminds me of the article in the DM at Christmas where the police actually took the cameras away from the people lined up to see the BRF going to church. I do agree it seems a bit absurd to do this in a country with more CCTV cameras than anywhere else.

    As far as the paparazzi are concerned, there are enough of the people who are “famous for being famous” crowd who want to be photographed and put in the Sun or the DM you’d think they’d be able to fill the pages with them and give the famous people who don’t want to be photographed
    ( like the BRF ) a little more breathing room. Though I see the point of the photographer who pointed out that people want to see real pictures of the BRF, not just staged portraits.

    More on “The 100 British Celebrites who really matter” according to Piers Morgan. William is number 4 on the list. Harry is number 19 and Kate is number 20.

    Simon Cowell is #1, David Beckham is #2 and Cheryl Cole ( I’m not sure who she is, but the DM loves her ) is #3, in case anyone was wondering.

    Here’s the link for # 11-30 ( with Harry and Kate) ;

    i think that its on decemeber last year with puppy and i think that people really loves wills harry and kate

  • AJ #9 - March 7, 2010 at 1:35 pm

    ^^^ I was thinking that too, bluefire. I think I’ve read the puppy story before.

  • Phoebe #10 - March 7, 2010 at 1:41 pm

    The puppy story, when first unveiled, had it as a gift from PW to KM, not from her parents.

    With respect to the guy at “the other forum”, I’m beginning to think that he has it right. Either that, or PW and his flunkies are engaged in a disinformation campaign, which is not very sophisticated, and is leaving people confuses.

  • Phoebe #11 - March 7, 2010 at 1:41 pm

    “confused”

  • Rman #12 - March 7, 2010 at 2:39 pm

    Phoebe my friend, a lot of this stuff is just made up. The royal news is dry at this point and KN must fill her pages with something royal so here we have this story. I posted that article because I found it a very silly yet funny story. Now it seems like people are taking it a bit too serious and the comments on the DM is not all that nice.

    We have to learn to not to pay much attention to all these made up intimate details because no one would really know all that and William nor Kate would actually talk to the media about that.

  • Rman #13 - March 7, 2010 at 2:42 pm

    It’s been said that William & Kate both have dogs. Now I really don’t know who gave who a dog as a gift. I’m not going to let these tabloids mess with my mind.

  • bluefire #15 - March 8, 2010 at 5:02 am

    im hungry so i decided to wake up i think the puppy story is being recycling or being repeating

  • LadyB #16 - March 8, 2010 at 11:31 am

    Rman, love the comment about not letting the tabloids mess with your mind! That really made me laugh!

    I am going to take a good pinch of the same salt, my friend. Don’t let the b*****s get you down!

  • LadyB #17 - March 8, 2010 at 11:33 am

    By the way, AJ thanks so much for posting those links to Piers’s top 100 celebs. Very much enjoyed reading that.

  • Me #18 - March 8, 2010 at 12:00 pm

    Curious look what Richard Palmer, Royal Reporter tweeted 37 minutes ago.

    Quote
    RoyalReporter Kate Middleton doesn’t have a dog apparently so is puzzled by claims it ate a pearl earring from Prince William. 37 minutes ago from txt

  • Me #19 - March 8, 2010 at 12:02 pm

    I guess we can laugh out loud the load of hogwash from mainly Katie Nicholl? RP has been lately at war with royal reports from other colleagues.

  • Me #20 - March 8, 2010 at 12:03 pm

    Shoot, I meant at war with other royal reporter colleagues.

  • AJ #21 - March 8, 2010 at 12:20 pm

    Re: the Royal Reporter’s tweets about the dog story. That’s funny, because when I went on twitter this morning, a whole bunch of news agencies had picked up and written their own version of the non-story. Must have been a slow news day. Oh, well.
    I’d like a pair of pretty pearl earrings and my sister has a cocker spaniel, so I liked the story anyway.

    Wish William and/or Harry would have made a video taped message for the Oscars or just have shown up – that would have made the show much more exciting.

  • Me #22 - March 8, 2010 at 12:29 pm

    I don’t think the Royals have anything in history to do with the Oscars, rather than the Bafta’s.

  • AJ #23 - March 8, 2010 at 12:52 pm

    ^^^ I know. I just thought that’d make them more interesting.

  • AJ #24 - March 8, 2010 at 12:54 pm

    ^^^ “it”, not “them”, as in the show. For some reason, I can’t type today.
