QC for Queen Catherine?

QC for Queen Catherine?

Apparently, Adam Helliker of the Express reported last week on Prince William and Kate Middleton enjoying a tennis match at Queen’s Club in West Kensington (where Kate’s sister Pippa is a member).

William popped into the club shop and bought a polo shirt and a pair of shorts emblazoned with the establishment’s logo, a crown above the monogram QC.

Now he reveals that this purchase was part of a joke between the pair, as a club mole reports: “We overheard William giggling and pointing to the logo when he first walked in to the reception area with Kate and he said, ‘Ooh look,Queen Catherine!’ He obviously liked this jape so much that he went back to buy the clothes for her.”

What’s fascinating about this vignette is that while commentators prattle on about the subject of when, and if, there will be an engagement, it’s obviously not too much of a sensitive issue for the couple and their relationship is relaxed enough for William to make light of the whole business.

So does this point to an engagement in June? “No way,” harrumphs an impeccable source in the Royal Household. “Although ultimately it’s down to Prince William to tell us when he wants to announce his engagement and he plays his cards very close to his chest. But we’ve all been led to believe this year is out and 2011 is far more likely. As long as he’s married by the Queen’s diamond jubilee we’ll all be happy.”
