No news of wedding according to Queen’s Master of Music
We may have to wait a little longer for Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding, according to the Queen’s Master of Music, Sir Peter Maxwell Davies. Sir Peter, 75, who will be commissioned to write music for the ceremony, has not been given notice to start work by the Queen.
“I have attended various recent meetings at the Palace concerned with forward planning and there has been no mention of any wedding,” he says.
Royal commentator Tina Brown’s prediction that the couple would announce their marriage this Thursday now sounds a little optimistic.

Kate’s Big Date on plate
Supermarket Asda is designing a crockery range to mark the engagement of Prince William and Kate Middleton – before he has even proposed.
But Asda is jumping the gun with a commemorative collection of plates and mugs. The supermarket is determined to be the first off the mark when Wills finally pops the question.
Kate’s mum fuelled speculation when she let slip that June is expected to be a “very busy time” for the family. Asda insiders say they want to be ready for customer demand if an announcement is made, as the market for royal souvenirs is worth £10 million.

Wills is Bonkers for Dizzee
For realm, homies – the rapping royal has revealed he’s a mega fan of Bonkers genius Dizzee Rascal.
Wills went to Radio 1′s Big Weekend festival in Bangor, Wales, with his girlfriend Kate Middleton last week. Watching from the side of the stage, Wills was certainly a posh Boy In Da Corner. But the polo-playing Prince also proved he wasn’t Snoot Dog as he rapped along to evert word of his hero’s song.
A festival-goer says: “Wills got a helicopter into the sight and as soon as he landed, he said he wanted to see Dizzee. “He watched from the side of the stage when Dizzee was performing on stage with Florence and the Machine. Wills knew the words to every single line of Dizzee’s rap.”

Belle Robinson, owner of Jigsaw, said this during her interview with The Times UK:
[Kate Middleton briefly worked at Jigsaw as an accessories buyer.]
What’s the most lucrative work you have ever done?
“Jigsaw — but that has been a long-term investment. Signing up Kate Middleton wasn’t really that lucrative. There was an initial buzz, but it quickly died down.”

Not at all surprising, putski. As usual, they’re all just speculation. Besides, William is opening a new rehab centre in Headley Court today.

Just in the interests of accuracy, I believe Kate Middleton’s father was a flight dispatch officer for British Airways before starting the party goods website business he runs with his wife. Why is it always written inaccurately that he was a pilot? I don’t know whether he has a pilot’s licence for flying small planes, but he was never a commercial pilot.

Thanks for the info, Jane. I didn’t know Mike was a dispatch officer. May I know where you got this information?

Kate is a commoner. Princess Madeleine would be perfect royal bride for Prince William. Wish the prince realizes that he should marry a blue blood like him. It would make his heirs full blooded royals like him. Best example is his grandmother the Queen and his grandfather the prince having perfect harmony till now. Long live the Queen !
