I was going to add "don't bother if you hate royalty to the title But I wouldn't have got many takers.

(Why isn't she pregnant yet?!)

Sorry to disappoint you, jingle, but I don't hate royalty. I think she is a very good-looking young woman with a charming manner. I think it is very intrusive to ask when she is going to be pregnant - I always cringed when people were constantly scrutinising Diana in this same way.

annodomini Wed 28-Nov-12 10:31:43

Intrusive and distasteful.

No. I'm glad you don't hate royalty. smile

Have a nice day. Don't get lost all on your own on those snowy mountains.

Lilygran Wed 28-Nov-12 10:54:33

Yes, an asset to the Royal Family and the nation. Go, girl!

Greatnan Wed 28-Nov-12 10:55:56

Jingle, I am unlikely to get lost today as we have total 'white out'! So it is more duvet-diving for me!

I don't think it's intrusive to wonder, which is all jingle's doing. It would be intrusive to ask Kate or Will, or to mention it at all to them.

Greatnan Wed 28-Nov-12 11:00:15

I wasn't thinking about jingle, just the mass of comment in the tabloids.

jO5 Wed 28-Nov-12 11:10:01

back-tracking or what? hmm

jO5 Wed 28-Nov-12 11:19:14

I just hope there isn't a problem. I would hate anything to rain on their parade.

I'm just a worry-guts. hmm

Ana Wed 28-Nov-12 11:21:21

I'm sure they'd both have been...checked out before they got married.

nanaej Wed 28-Nov-12 11:23:13

I dislike the existence of a royal family but do not 'hate' individual royals as I do not know them.
Not my business , and I do not care particularly, if people I do not know are pregnant or not! Press speculation and comment , whilst expected, must be tedious and maybe upsetting to any individual if comments/speculation are about a private,sensitive issue that is not about a 'wrong-doing'.

I loved seeing Guy the gorilla though...but was sad he was in a zoo!

jO5 Wed 28-Nov-12 11:58:26

They would not have!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! grin

I don't belieeeeeeeve it!!!!!!!!!!! grin

In that photo hair looks like a wig.

glassortwo Wed 28-Nov-12 13:07:47

The fringe looks like a pair of curtains grin but I do agree she is very naturally attractive.

jO5 Wed 28-Nov-12 14:55:22

Was thinking (far too much hmm) whilst out about Ana's post.

Can you imagine it -

"William dear, just spare a mo to do the necessary in this -little- large pot. Ah, that's all fine. Plenty of the little perishers there. Thanks.

Just better check out the fit now. Kate dear, How's that? Comfy? Ok?

All seems in order. Should do the trick. Go ahead."

How else are they gonna check 'em out??? hmm

Ana Wed 28-Nov-12 15:12:55

grin

I only meant they'd both have been checked for possible fertility problems....

BAnanas Wed 28-Nov-12 15:22:42

I like Kate, or what we know of her through her public image, she comes across as warm and genuine. I have to say I hate this horrible button up to the neck old granny's dress though, she still looks good of course, just don't like the dress. She doesn't need to get pregnant she's got her lovely dog Lupo, don't know whether he would be able to succeed William, although there's always a chance him being a male and non catholic!!!

gillybob Wed 28-Nov-12 15:25:31

Personally I think the longer it takes those two scroungers to add to the (already overloaded) list of royal layabouts the better.

Ella46 Wed 28-Nov-12 15:32:45

The politicians would love her to be pregnant as it would fill the newspapers, and we would miss all the sneaky stuff they get up to!

I think that dress is ghastly too!

MrsJamJam Wed 28-Nov-12 15:38:25

Agree that the dress looks hideous to me, and personally I would find such a vast mane of hair thoroughly irritating, but perhaps she doesn't have to do much beyond sitting around looking glamorous!

Nonu Wed 28-Nov-12 15:40:05

Mrs jamjam like !

Bags Wed 28-Nov-12 16:01:54

Same here, jamjam! I also think she looks better with her hair up – more elegant and intelligent.

jO5 Wed 28-Nov-12 16:11:49

No. I thik the fringe looks quite pretty close up. Wonder if they've recommended that to stop all the hair brushing back she does. She must have some glue strength hairspray on it.

Love the dress. A girl's got to keep warm. (It is very Charlie's Angels! Wonder if she knows it?)
