On January 9, Prince William's wife, Keith Middleton, turned 35 years old. In connection with this event, we will open a few secrets from the life of modern Cinderella.
The future Duchess of Cambridge was born on January 9, 1982. She was the most ordinary girl: no one thought that she would one day become one of the most influential women on the planet.
- The real name is Keith - Catherine Elizabeth Middleton.
- Kate was born in a simple family of air traffic controller and flight attendant. The story of her acquaintance with the prince might have become like a fairy tale about Cinderella, if not for one "but". When the girl was 5 years old, her parents founded a mail order agency, which brought them huge profits. So at the time of the Prince's acquaintance, Kate was no longer a Cinderella, but an heiress to millionaires.
- As a child, Kate was not popular with her peers. One of her classmates remembers:
- William is not Kate's first love. When she was at the Marlborough College, she had an affair with Harry Blakek, a guy in whom all the girls in this school were in love. He was a year older than his chosen one. Their relationship lasted a year, and then Harry married a friend of Kate. After parting with Blake, the girl met Rupert Finch for a while. Now he is a successful lawyer.
- Kate met the prince at St. Andrews University, where they both studied. According to rumors, William fell in love with her at a time when the girl was defile in a transparent dress during a charity show. Later, the dress was sold at auction for fabulous104 thousand dollars.
- The girl had to wait 9 years before William made her an offer. The press nicknamed her "Katie's expectation."
- Kate is the oldest bride in the history of the British royal family . Her wedding with Prince William took place when the girl was 29 years old. For comparison: Princess Diana married at age 20, Queen Elizabeth - at 21, Queen Mother - at 22. True, it is worth mentioning that we are talking about brides getting married for the first time.
- Despite the fact that Kate is married to a prince, she is not a princess. This title can only be awarded to royalty, and Kate, as we recall, comes from a simple family.
- Kate loves sports. In her youth she was engaged in track and field athletics, tennis, swimming, rowing; played hockey and volleyball.
- When Kate began an affair with William, she attended pole dance classes (erotic dances by the pole). She did not stop training even when her relationship with the prince became known. The insider says:
- Both Kate's pregnancies were very difficult. The duchess had the strongest toxicosis, during which she had up to 30 bouts of vomiting per day.
- During both pregnancies, gray hair was visible in Kate's hair. She refused to dye her hair, because she feared that the chemical effects of the paint could provoke cancer in her children.
- Despite the fact that Kate's nose is not the most ideal form, he became a subject of admiration and imitation. Many women turn to plastic surgeons with a request to make them a spout "like Middleton". This operation has already been called "royal rhinoplasty."
- But not only Kate's nose is so frenzied. Any thing worn by the Duchess of Cambridge, immediately becomes the last squeak of fashion. This phenomenon was called the "Kate effect". So, after the engagement of Keith Middleton and Prince William, the rings with large sapphires framed with small diamonds began to be in great demand, just like the ring that Princess Diana previously owned, Prince William presented to his bride when he offered her hands and hearts.
- Duchess of Cambridge in all the photographs is very good. The secret is that she never looks at the camera.
- Kate herself is a good photographer. It was she who made the first official pictures of Princess Charlotte, where she poses with her brother.
