As the rest of the audience sat quietly (I think) in the rows of St. Paul’s Cathedral, Prince Harry made the Duchess of Cambridge giggle.

Hear ye, hear ye. The Duchess of Cambridge has left her lace and other recyclable couture at home for SportsAid’s 40th anniversary dinner at Kensington Palace.

to what the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge call one another behind closed doors.
When News of The World illegally tapped into the couple’s voicemails in 2006, Prince William was heard calling Catherine “babykins” and “baby.”
I’ve even heard Catherine’s nickname for the Duke – “Big Willy” – mentioned a few times, but even repeating it this once makes me feel like a creep. [Read more…]

Good heavens!
JK, everyone calm down. It’s fine. The Duchess of Cambridge may or may not have confused fans last night at the Royal Windsor Horse Show when she paired a bohemian white lace Dolce & Gabbana dress with a red Zara cape coat.
Yes, it looked a little weird, but my rose-colored glasses have faded only slightly, so I still give Catherine two thumbs up on the majority of her sartorial choices. [Read more…]
