Kate Middleton is on the cover of Newsweek as we countdown to the Royal Wedding, now only 25 days away!
It’s a very commendable piece, introducing the world to the princess-to-be, and highlighting her background, relationship and characteristics that may very well serve to save – or at least revive – the British Monarchy. Quotes and analysis from “friends” and royal specialists.
Kate the Great

When Catherine Elizabeth Middleton marries William Arthur Philip Louis Windsor, a prince of the royal blood, in Westminster Abbey on April 29, she will be scoring a number of firsts. Kate will be the first royal bride to have a university education, the first to live with her husband before marriage, the first to have a mother who used to be a flight attendant. Most impressively of all, Catherine will one day be the first queen of the realm to have fallen over at a roller disco in a pair of yellow hot pants.
