Prince William And Kate Middleton To Marry

RobitTV

Prince William and Kate Middleton are engaged and will marry next year, it has been confirmed.

After months of speculation, the couple finally announced they would tie the knot in London in spring or summer next year.

William and Kate, both 28, have been together for eight years and became engaged while on holiday in Kenya last month.

"Further details about the wedding day will be announced in due course," Clarence House said in a statement.

The couple will live in north Wales after the wedding and William will continue to serve with the RAF.

They are due to speak publicly at St James's Palace in London later and Kate is expected to show off her engagement ring.

Kate's parents said they are "absolutely delighted" and "thrilled" at the news.

A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: "Both the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh are absolutely delighted for them both."

The Prince of Wales said he was "thrilled, obviously, thank you. They have been practising long enough". He added: "It makes me feel very old."

The Prime Minster has sent his congratulations to the couple.

Speaking outside Number 10 earlier, he said the engagement was "a great day for our country".

And Earl Spencer, William's uncle and the brother of Diana, said: "It's wonderful news. Very exciting. My family are all thrilled for them both."

Their wedding will be the biggest royal event since William's father married Diana in 1981.

Kings, queens and heads of state from around the world are expected to be guests, although the venue has not been confirmed.

PS: At least we know he won't be marrying one of those dirty Catholics.

God, how much can Sky News wring out of this story? It's been literally the only story they've run all day, that and ad breaks is all that's been on.

Apparently he proposed a month ago, too, so there'l really no story here at all.

Don't worry, I'm sure he's not finished informing us about every aspect of his personal life yet either.

I've always found her very attractive actually.

That's about all I can dredge from my brain that remotely resembles interest in the event.

Jesus here we go, 24 hour rolling horse****e on Sky news, various royal analysts giving their opinions on when, where the marriage will take place, opinions on the dress will be forthcoming its going to be painful.

How long before she's getting chased into tunnels?

About 5 hours ago I'd say!!

Following the break-up, negative stories about the Middleton family appeared in the press.

These included allegations Kate's mother had chewed gum at William's passing-out parade and had used the words "toilet" and "pardon" in front of the Queen

What is a passing-out parade? Is that where people walk and then faint?

You should try afternoon TV in Ireland, depressing ****e, I was in fact trying to catch up on REAL NEWS, not get bombarded with this hysterical nonsense, roll on 6/1

pickarooney

The first I heard of this (or Kate Middleton) was in a thread complaining about the media coverage. The second I heard of it was in another thread complaining about the media coverage and expressing a complete lack of interest.

Any sign of a sex tape?

Noffles

Hurray... glad to hear this... it'll unite Britain and give us all something to cheer about...

Don't rworry Ireland I'm sure one of the gay lads in Boyzone or the other boy band will get married and you can cheer just as we will

starbelgrade

Never heard of the lass, but after a quick Google, I can confirm that she is reasonably high up on the "Do-able Scale".

Naos

I have absolutely no interest in this and cannot understand why it's been all over the news instead of just a 5 minute slot.

If you're watching Sky News, you have to expect Royal Family shite mixed in with the normal shite that comprises the rest of their output.

for me, toilet and pardon are polite alternatives. Surely "Here, Queenie where's the throne room, no, the other throne room" would have been much more vulgar.

Bloody monarchies, what century is it?

meglome

who? or was that who cares?

I'm torn.

If you're a plebeian of lower birth like me, the undeniable Lady Chatterley horn factor pushes her up a few notches on the scale too. I'll have to redouble my efforts to find seasonal work in the royal stables.

I dated a seriously rich bird years ago (or rather, a bird with seriously rich parents)... she loved nothing better than to be ridden doggy style, while having her pony tail yanked & her arse spanked raw while she neighed like a horse.

So, I see where you're coming from.

If that is the worst that the tabloids can manage to dig up about your family by way of scandal then you've not got much to worry about.

All I saw on BBC News today about Ireland and the economy was that the EU was going to be handing out free cheese.

At least Sky aren't showing Ireland in the crapper 24/7.

Im sure everyone will be more interested in the poo I just had.

Medium force was used and consistence was not hard enough to prolong the poo taking extensively but not soft enough to deny me that slighly drawn out relief you get with a good one.

Number of wipes required: 3

They were probably waiting for some fertility checks to be done. She now has to drop a spog within a couple of years of the wedding, preferably male. Also if she can manage to get the second son to have the same colour hair as the first it would help too.
