That saccharine article is so badly written it mentions the cheese toast and sea salt chocolates twice.

THIS is the over the top, ridiculous Middleton embiggening campaign I was expecting in January when Kate was “in the hospital”. It took six months but it is apparent that all is well again with Kate and whatever negotiating had William and KP in a frantic tizzy is over and the deal is done.

William doesn’t like to toe the line so I’ll be interested to see how long his good behavior lasts. Maybe he only agreed to a one-time, short-term effort because I don’t see this working out for the Midds as the new normal. Whatever they had on him is baaaaaaad. William is just as culpable as the Middletons in destroying the BM.

Hard agree.

It’s also only talking about the time Carole lived with them at Anmer when Kate was pregnant with Charlotte – isn’t Chalotte 9? Part of what Carole has on Bill. Think, people, think!

Like, what editor was like “yes, let’s run this decade-old story that regurgitates stuff we’ve already told! What a scoop!”

Side note: I love how it says they “swapped” Anmer Hall for Adelaide Cottage, as though it were an actual swap or trade, not the reality, “Anmer Hall, their massive home on the Sandringham Estate, though they have since also acquired an expensive and massive home in Kensington Palace in London and a stately home at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor Castle since then.”

So the grown man needs mummy-in-law to pick his clothes? And we are back to the cheese toast? This article makes William look like a complete fool and Kate a helpless dolt. In addition, Carole comes across as an interfering, pain in the a##. Sorry, but I’m not feeling the love… You think?

‘This article makes William look like a complete fool and Kate a helpless dolt.’

So pretty accurate then!

PW is in his 40’s and can’t make his own cheesy toast? Or Kate can’t? Carole “above anyone else knows what makes Kate happy”? Wouldn’t Kate know what makes her happy? Or is she not allowed to decide for herself? And why wouldn’t it now be her husband who knows what makes Kate happy? Does Carole manage their sex life also? Do they realize how highly odd this sounds?

Right?? My goodness. My husband adores my mother and they get along very well but the way they describe William and Carole’s relationship is downright creepy. Is this just the Mail poking at William and Kate again under the guise of a positive article? Why can’t these two adults in their 40s manage their own life? Come on, people, look deeper.

Carole knows what makes Kate happy because she tells Kate what makes her happy.

Kate is a flawed person and I share the opinion of most here. But she also never had a chance – since childhood managed by Carole, who I am sure very carefully never gave her even a bit space to breathe and think independently, find out what she wants from life. Then from Carole straight to most oppressive institution, and still under Carol’s influence. She must be extremely lost personally. I wonder if she experiences moments of dissonance when she get what “she” wants and still feels sth is not right.

Many children have dysfunctional childhoods and manage to work through it. Kate’s brother in law Harry is an example of someone who experienced a far more traumatic childhood and he’s not a puppet to his father’s wishes, who has significant institutional power at his fingertips.

And kate was perfectly fine with being an awful bitch to her sister law, permitting the media to attack her to this day.

So I don’t feel bad for Kate. She needs to grow up. Oh, you don't know what traumatic is, toots.

It’s the “in thrall” that’s doing it, for me. That’s one hell of a loaded term, and about his mother in law? Gross. Right, but you folks STILL haven't been delving deeper to realize just how awful Carole and family have been for years. WE have, but then again, WE have true guts.
