Tag: duchess of cambridge

Hey, I just found your blog and having been scrolling thought it all.I came across a post where you mentioned William’s chart and that he married for love. Did you do this for Kate too? I would really like to see something like that so if you havent done it ,do you know where to find some spreads or readings for the Cambridges? The few Ive come across make me eye roll too much with all the Kate bashing. Thank you.

Well, technically Kate’s birth time isn’t officially known, apparently/supposedly a friend of Will & Kate’s gave an astrologer her birth time so that a compatibility chart could be done as a wedding gift. That birth time is 7 pm/1900, which is what most people go with now.

That birth time gives her a Cancer ascendant with her 7th house (marriage/partnership) and 5th house (romance) conjunct. Saturn ruling her 7th house, and Mars ruling her 5th house. Based on the connection between marriage and romance, I would safely say that Kate married for love. 

I remember Harry sugars for years were calling Kate every name under the sun for not having that order thing from the Queen. Meghan is the best thing that has happened to Kate. Everyone is like thank god Will married her when they used to be like ugh Kate! anyway Kate looked like a real princess in that dress and tiara! I saw an anon concerned about her weight: breast feeding can suck the weight right off you. I got crazy skinny after breast feeding especially after my third.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

Yep, Tom Sykes/Lainey/Celebitchy et al are desperately trying to argue that the Cambridges are jealous and upset about all the attention that Harry and Meghan are getting, but I just don’t think that is the case. 

Meghan is great for Will and Kate. They look mature, serious, discreet, and functional in comparison. 

Kate’s outfits came across as a bit too girly and unprofessional before, but they are uber appropriate compared to Meghan’s un-ironed blouses, dirty shoes, and oversize bathrobe coats. Will looks more regal than Harry. Kate’s clothing bills appear frugal in comparison to Meghan’s. The Cambridge’s appearances, which used to seem too superficial, are better planned and a lot more substantive than Meghan and Harry’s.

Even Meghan’s crap family works in the Cambridge’s favor. Uncle Gary is no longer an issue. Carole is actually described as “staying behind the scenes” now. Pippa’s wedding was amazing (and discreet!) compared to Meghan’s. In addition, the Cambridges are now growing closer to the other royals.

I am not sure why the sugar gang is trying to spin the Cambridges as jealous or insecure. Meghan is the Fergie that Kate didn’t know she wanted.

Okay don’t call me dumb but — why is it so important that Kate’s order is different?

harry-sussex:

I would never, love! It’s not dumb at all!

So the traditional royal family order – the one worn by Camilla, Sophie, Diana – is made of ivory. William is an outspoken and active opponent of the illegal ivory trade, and has spent much of his royal life promoting conservation and combatting poachers, the illegal trade, that sort of thing. It was a theory that Catherine hadn’t yet gotten the order from HM because it’s made of ivory, and that would have been a slap in the face to William. Kate’s order is made of glass, which means HM consciously made a few decisions – first, to grant her granddaughter in law this very big honor, and second, to do it in a way that honors her grandson and eventual heir’s wishes. It’s a huge success for William and Catherine. Convincing HM to change anything isn’t easy, but at least one of them convinced HM to do this. It’s a really, really big deal.

I’m not big on comparing Meghan and Kate; they’re each who they are and as much as we may disagree with that sometimes, we must also respect it. But in saying that, never has the divide between the two been more glaringly obvious than after last night’s event. The difference between how Kate conducted herself at the Norwegian state dinner while pregnant with Louis, and how Meghan was yesterday (bump cradling and whatnot), is so stark that it’s hard to think they’re representing the same thing.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

It’s not a completion any more. I think you have it completely right when you say “it’s hard to think they’re representing the same thing.” They are NOT representing the same thing. Will and Kate are representing the monarchy and Meghan and Harry are off doing some weird taxpayer-funded celeb thing.

Can we talk about the difference between the two state events? Its the difference between wannabe fame and real monarchy. Queen Maxima is the intelligent, outgoing, “empowered” (see that Meghan), titled partner that the current Duchess of Sussex is never going to be. BTW i really want to be a fly on the wall when the post-tour debrief happens. Has Samantha “the panther” Cohen started pulling her hair out yet? :)

anonymoushouseplantfan:

I don’t know, but Emily Andrews is low-key dissing Max and Kate. I think Kate’s dress can be criticized, but calling Max’s outfit “net curtains” is bizarre.

Maxima looks amazing. I LOVE her tiara. The ombre dress looks great. She has fab style. Kate’s dress looks good on her. I hate ruching, but she is thin enough to carry it off and that ruching is sewn down and strategically placed. The jewels looks great with the dress, and I am glad she got the order. There is definitely a team RF alliance showing and Harry isn’t a part of it. Are the senior Brits tiny, bc the Dutch royals dwarf them. (part 1)

anonymoushouseplantfan:

part 2) Kate is losing weight again. I assume she is just hard core exercise and dieting to loose the Louis weight and maybe is overdoing it. I hope it is not feeling threatened by Meg, bc there is NO competition there. When Kate got skinny before 2016?, I wondered if she and Will were having issues, and she was coping by dieting and exercising too much. I hope that is not the case now. He and the UK are lucky to have her.

Yep.

Amidst a sea of sparkle at tonight’s Diplomatic Reception, the most spectacular news was that the Duchess of Cambridge received the Royal Family Order from Her Majesty! Traditionally the order was made of ivory, however, Catherine’s was created with glass instead – likely in honor of her husband, William. Catherine is only the second granddaughter in law of a living sovereign to have a family order.

The more I see Kate’s dress the more I like it. It reminds me of the 1920’s-30’s which I’m a big fan. Totally classy. People who dislike her will find everything wrong with her, especially fashion sense.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

I think it’s the mermaid skirt that gets on people’s nerves. Also the first pics were pretty bad. This picture is fantastic, though.

I like that she looks very comfortable with the jewelry. She’s not overwhelmed by it at all and the gown is a nice backdrop to all the bling. The clutch is really nice too.

It is thought that the royal couple welcomed teenagers – Lily Rice, Junior Frood and Siena Castellon – into their home to praise them for their inspirational work after being crowned Teen Heroes of 2018. Speaking to HELLO! after the meet-and-greet, 16-year-old Siena – who has supported other students with autism and learning difficulties – revealed: “It was such an honour and privilege to meet the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at Kensington Palace. They were both genuinely interested in my website, www.QLMentoring.com, which I created to support and mentor autistic students and students with learning disabilities.”

Of meeting the royals, she added: “The Duchess was especially interested in addressing autism stereotypes and was saddened to hear about the severity of the disability-related bullying I have experienced. She congratulated me for being a Diana Award holder and for currently serving on the National Youth Board, a role that has given me a national platform through which to share my disability-based bullying experience. They were both incredibly warm, supportive and encouraging. Meeting them was an awesome experience! They have inspired me continue to make a positive difference in my community.”

I did a graph of Harry’s engagements for mental health since the launch of Heads Together after receiving a message asking if his work in the area had tailed off. @avidroyalfan– one of the few people in the fandom who loves graphs and data as much as me- asked if I could do one including Kate and William so voila. I’ve gone hella gender normative so Kate’s pink, William’s blue and Harry’s black because it looked better next to the other colours. This graph shows the number of mental health focused engagements completed each month since the launch in May 2016:

NB. Some things to consider: Their spike in engagements in March/April 2017 came about due to the London Marathon. Kate was off work with Hyperesmesis Gravidarum in September 2017 and on maternity leave from late March until early October 2018. Harry married in May 2018 and had a reduced programme that month. 

royal-confessions:

“After battling PPD of my own I spoke to other mothers about their experiences. Since I got the courage to speak about it, I found that others where relieved to find out it’s likewise for a lot of mothers. The Duchess’ initiative (‘Heads together’) made me aware of the ‘communication is key’-part and I felt al lot more normal and not so guilty. I wonder if Kate feels/felt the same with any birth and so she started all this.“ – Submitted by Anonymous

I actually feel a bit of sympathy for her cause she is such a fail at this. I would have thought at least some of the actress stuff would have benefitted her but no. It isn’t just the clothes either she is just clueless and has no confidence at these events. She really does need Harry to direct her. Is she that stoned or just that helpless? Saw a video of Kate at her first event a Portrait Gallery visit – she exuded confidence. Looked like a pro already.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

This video? I do think she looks very confident, but, to be fair, Kate was an art history major so this was kind of her thing. I’m sure she was very excited about the exhibition.

I like Kate’s blue headpiece from the wedding do Has she wore that blue outfit before?

duchessofostergotlands:

I really like the headpiece itself. I think with the dress and the bag it’s a bit matchy matchy. Even for Kate, who loves matchy matchy. It’s just very blue. But I like the piece and I’m all for this new experimentation she’s doing with her headpieces. I would love that to continue. Anyway, she has indeed worn that outfit before, without the hat thing. She wore it when they arrived in Berlin:
