Prince William: ‘I really should have done more work when I was younger’

Maybe I missed some storyline, but I think Prince William and Kate’s day in Birmingham on Thursday went well. They got some decent-sized crowds, people seemed happy to see them and there weren’t any huge gaffes from the lazy duo. It was their first public event in a month which didn’t involve walking to church. Which isn’t to say that the Birmingham trip was full of newsworthy events or anything – William and Kate are now and have always been lightweights, and their tours and events reflect that. They really just went around Birmingham, chatting to artists and playing darts and doing photo-ops at an Indian restaurant. And that’s it. William even went on the record about how he wishes he had learned how to breakdance, and he revealed what he’s watching on Netflix.

William and Kate met designers, artists, playwrights, filmmakers and tech experts to hear more about how the creative sector is growing and their experiences of opening and running their businesses in the city.

Among them was a dance teacher who teaches in the West Midlands city. Hearing how it offers ballet and modern dance, he told her: ‘I still wish I’d learned to breakdance. It’s one of my greatest regrets, not learning to breakdance when I was young.’

The father-of-three also met Kelvin Osondu, 30, a budding writer and head of the Bootcamp Media marketing agency, who told William how his passion was writing books. ‘How old were you when you wrote your first book?’ William asked. Hearing how Osondu wrote his first fantasy fiction book aged 16, William, who got an A in geography, a B in art and a C in biology at A Level, laughed and said: ‘Kelvin, I need to bottle some of your discipline. ‘There was a moment when I really should have done more work when I was younger – read more books, watched less TV. I’m watching The Recruit on Netflix at the moment.’

[From The Daily Mail]

“There was a moment when I really should have done more work when I was younger” – or literally any work at all, surely. I mean, it’s a universal thing – almost all of us wish we had studied harder, learned that second or third language, read more when we were younger. Hearing that from William though, it drives home the point that he did f–k all and he’s still doing f–k all with his time.

Kensington Palace is also back to making fan-cams of William & Kate’s events. This is so cheesy and it perfectly encapsulates their style-over-substance attitude towards everything. Also: KP isn’t paying for a blue check!

    Oh William! Perhaps not learning Welsh when you were young should be one of your regrets?

    • Peachy says:

      There is that. He’s such a slug.

    • Giddy says:

      He could start learning at any time. How about now, William?

      • Betsy says:

        It’s not like he doesn’t have access to the very best of Welsh intelligentsia and language experts.

        Failing that he could always start on Duolingo. Welsh is right on there.

      • BothSidesNow says:

        @ Giddy, yes. Now is as good as time as any! Yet WanK doesn’t want to work or do anything of substance except watch Netflix and sit around screaming at staff, StinK and anyone else that should cross his path, including his father.

        (StinK is my new word for Kate as she fits the definition of stink quite accurately.)

  2. Melissa says:

    Every now and again with narcissists and abusers the mask slips and you see who they really are. “Maybe I should have worked more” is one of these moments.

    • Chloe says:

      If you really sit and think about it it’s actually quite a privileged statement coming from him. Some of us would like to read more books, learn another language or take an extra class but can’t because we have to work and support ourselves, while in university.

      This man really never had to lift a finger

      • Becks1 says:

        I was thinking a similar thing Chloe. My regrets about what I didn’t do are largely focused on things I couldn’t do because we weren’t rich – so they’re not really regrets so much as “oh well, would have been nice.” I couldn’t take an unpaid internship bc I had part time jobs (and I was lucky and my parents paid for my tuition, room and board.) I couldnt take the summer off to travel bc I had to earn money for the next school year. And so on.

        sometimes I almost feel sorry for William, that he wasted his advantages so much.

      • B says:

        His statement is faux insight.
        If he had the insight and wisdom to really regret being so lazy when he was younger, he would have the wisdom and insight to realize there was no cut off for that window.

      • C says:

        I don’t think he regrets anything.

        I agree that this remark is of little substance but I have to say in this case I find it rather benign. Just small talk which we’ve all had to do daily. It’s definitely better than some of his small talk in the past, lol.

      • SophieJara says:

        Yah same Chloe. I really wish I’d worked less.

      • Tacky says:

        In the context of the conversation, William is saying he wished he’d worked hard in his youth. Read more books, studied harder, learned more in school.

      • Becks1 says:

        @Tacky, yes, we understand what he’s saying, and the point still stands. I wish I had read more books in college but I didn’t have the time he had. He’s also saying it in response to someone saying they wrote a book at 16 – well, there was nothing stopping William from doing that.

    • ecsmom says:

      I would like to add to the narcissists theme is he asked a question where the person gave an answer that would make him better than Willy, he then brings the conversation back to himself basically saying he could have been awesome too if only…
      When I picture Harry or Meghan asking the same question I hear them following up with, what inspired you, how did you come up with your ideas, were you supported by family and teachers, etc. You know keeping the conversation and accomplishments on them.

  3. girl_ninja says:

    I still wish I’d learned to breakdance. It’s one of my greatest regrets, not learning to breakdance when I was young.’

    Really Willy? Not attacking your brother after he wouldn’t do what you wanted? Not working with the tabloids to terrorize your black sister in law?

    Breakdancing? Okay loser.

    • TigerMcQueen says:

      It’s such an odd comment, speaking to a dance teacher who’s from a studio offering ballet and modern dance and his mind going to breakdancing. Twenty bucks says he’s too dim to know that modern dance is distinct from street dance, or that he connected the two because the dance teacher is Black.

    • Brassy Rebel says:

      I know, right? That’s a super weird greatest regret, especially for someone who has reached the age of 40 and still can’t control his temper.

      • Lucy says:

        I thought that was bizarre also. I’ma year older than him, I’ve never heard anyone in my wide social circle even mention break dancing. I guess it’s the only thing he can think of for relating to dancing?

    • Eurydice says:

      Maybe he thinks breakdancing is about breaking things.

    • RoyalBlue says:

      it comes across as disingenuous. i don’t believe anything he says,

  4. Peachy says:

    Someone in KP *please* tell him to button that shirt or is he in his middle aged sex symbol era? All he needs is a clunky gold chain, a red sports car and a new trophy wife…. oh, wait…

    • TarteAuCitron says:

      I’m getting “divorced dad trying out Tinder” vibes! :))

      Kitty looks like a battery-controlled waving doll as per usual.

      • Peachy says:

        Lmao! The Wave-a-tron 2000™!

      • SarahCS says:

        Oh @Peachy I just lol’d mid mouthful at that. Outstanding.

        There’s a lot of talk about AI/computers taking over people’s jobs at the moment, I think we just found a major cost saving for the royals.

      • Christine says:

        LMAO!!! You all are on fire in this thread!

    • Diffraction says:

      I have seen accounts on Twitter absolutely THIRST over him (I do not understand it!), so that’s probably who the unbuttoning is for. He would need an entire personality overhaul if he wanted to become an attractive person, but we already know he doesn’t want to put in the work.

      • Cairidh says:

        He’s been unbuttoning his shirt since he was young and it’s always looked horribly unprofessional. He looks very unwell at the moment.

  5. Pinkosaurus says:

    I’d love to snark but I have this conversation with my teen sons daily. Sigh. Hopefully they have a better work ethic than Wills as adults. Credit to KP for not paying for a Twitter check mark though!

    • equality says:

      I like the check mark snub for EM, but I”m sure that KP’s reason is that they see themselves above having to do what the commone people do in being verified.

    • SarahLee says:

      I agree. I’m as snarky as they come, but I think most of us would say something like this. Another positive comment – Kate looks amazing in that plum color.

  6. ThatsNotOkay says:

    He really should do more work now that he’s older as well. Mental health work, physical work, work work….

  7. Harla A Brazen Hussy says:

    After watching the little video, I know nothing more about Birmingham than I did before but I know that Will likes to shot darts and Kate likes to pose for photos. So, exactly who was this trip supposed to highlight?

    • SarahCS says:

      WanK.

      Like every trip they do.

    • Gruey says:

      I’m surprised more people aren’t commenting on that video. It’s…deeply shocking? Lol.

      It’s so low rent it’s giving “random travel videos they play at the nail salon” it’s giving “weird pop up when I click on a yahoo article.” That music is soooo public domain from 20 years ago. I can’t.

  8. Seraphina says:

    I’m sure there were other more posh things to do so working and bettering himself was the least thing on his mind – especially when ones knows they will be set for life. If anything, this statement makes me dislike him even more. A pampered, spoiled and over indulged man child. He has the world at his fingertips, get over yourself Wills.
    As for Kate, she needs an intervention. Her last photo – her gaunt figure and posture make me question what is going on behind the scenes (and we have all discussed this before) but it is becoming more so apparent.

    • Carrie says:

      Agree. Quite scary.

      • First comment says:

        Yeah, it’s terrifying!! She definitely lost more weight during the month of their absence… her neck and torso are extremely thin.. I hope she gets some help!

      • SURE says:

        Maybe she’s become stricter with her dieting in order to look her best (as she perceives it) in all her conAnation outfits.

      • Lady D says:

        She is swimming in that dress.

      • Christine says:

        Yeah, she’s lost weight since this dress fitting. She is disappearing.

    • BeanieBean says:

      Yeah, I noticed that too. I thought maybe she was cold? Everyone around is wearing a jacket, but she’s not. And when you’re super thin/have an ED you’re always cold.

    • Nic919 says:

      She is going to be as thin as she can for the coronation. It’s a part of her usual dysfunction but she is likely stricter than usual, which is already pretty bad.

  9. Linda says:

    Im sorry. Breakdance?? Can you imagine!!

    • Peachy says:

      No. Please, no.

    • AmB says:

      Well, now we know THAT’s not the reason for his bald spot – he didn’t do irreparable follicular damage spinning around on his head.

      (Although come to think of it, at this point that could be an asset if he did want to grease it up and go for a spin – though I wouldn’t want to watch [cringe], a breakdancing hobby could keep him out of worse trouble for a bit. He doesn’t seem to be doing much else.)

    • Mary Pester says:

      Thank you God, thank you for not letting him talk to Kylie, the mind (and universe) shudders at the thought of William in buck house, stripped down to a pair of gold boxer shorts singing “spinning around” my eyes, oh god my eyes “, or the thought of him and botox doing a Travolta Saturday night fever dance, then he would have been breakdancing with her twiglet arms. Talking about botox barbie, I’m sorry, but from now on, she is going to be called Wednesday, because with those legs, it’s a case of When’s they going to break!!. William has confirmed what we all know for sure, he is and always will be a lazy bsd

  10. Becks1 says:

    Well, yeah, I can look back and wish I had done more of this or more of that but it certainly hits different when william says it, doesn’t it? He didn’t do anything when he was younger and he does nothing as an almost 41 year old.

    I’m surprised he admitted to watching Netflix, lol.

    Also, I didn’t realize it in the pictures yesterday, but in the first pic here – Kate’s extensions are really not looking good. At all. It’s like all her hair money came from Charles and William won’t let her spend the money on it.

    • Gabby says:

      Interesting point. It’s possible Waity had an easier time getting funds from Chuckles before the PPoW transition than she does now getting it from W. Suck it up bitch.

    • TIFFANY says:

      I think it’s because Cannot has lost so much weight and muscle that it is affecting her hair and no amount of extensions can repair the damage.

  11. equality says:

    So why does learning and reading more have to be confined to when you are young? How did any of this benefit anyone? It seems to me that there would be more benefit to a young writer to meet someone who has been published and who could offer advice.

    • Rapunzel says:

      Excellent point. I’m 43 and learning French and going back to school to get my PhD. All while maintaining my job.

      Learning should be a lifelong pursuit. So should working.

    • BeanieBean says:

      Good point. I was 44 went I went back to grad school. Finished at darn near 50. It’s never too late Willy Boy!

  12. Maxine Branch says:

    Now if they would just keep themselves on their little island all will be well in the world. This is what they are good for, nothing else. Go around their island as tourist hemming and hawing over the sites there. No danger of faux pas because nothing much is expected of them. Nothing that requires depth.

    • MrsCope says:

      This works for me too Maxine Branch. Let them play tourist and be among the people. It’s a hefty price tag for some lightweight work, but it’s not my money!

    • First comment says:

      In addition to your comments, I suspect that on salty island every visit is stage- managed.. a win for all!!

    • Harper says:

      Exactly. Just bop around Jolly Ole England once a week, playing pranks on the unsuspecting peasants, chugging a few at the local pub, and laughing hysterically at everything they see. Rinse and repeat.

  13. Rapunzel says:

    “‘There was a moment when I really should have done more work”

    It was just a moment, and not this moment.

    “‘when I was younger– read more books, watched less TV. I’m watching The Recruit on Netflix at the moment.’”

    I should’ve watched less TV when I was younger…. let me tell what I’m currently watching.

    • Becks1 says:

      Right? the better line here would have been – “I should have done more work, read more books, watched less TV. I’m currently reading the Lord of the Rings trilogy for the first time and its so amazing to read the books and see Tolkien’s world that way, really just incredible fantasy.’

      Now do I think William has to be reading LOTR because he’s talking to someone who writes fantasy books? No but that was the best example I could think of for what would have been better to have said than “I’m watching Netflix.”

      • SarahCS says:

        And I thought Netflix were the devil for The Crown and paying H&M for stuff. Looks like Willy is betraying the family with his subscription.

    • Sandra says:

      Such a bizarre comment about what he was watching on Netflix..(After slamming the Crown and his brother’s documentary !!!!) what did this have to do with anything they were talking about. He’s just so bad at small talk.

  14. Louise177 says:

    Is that his excuse? It’s never too late to do more work.

  15. MrsCope says:

    It just makes me think about Spare and how much Harry LIVED. That work outside of his royal status made him the empathetic, creative hard worker that he is. That traveling to the North and South poles, the time in the military, Sentebale etc. He had drive and curiosity and his brother had…. None. His brother’s whole life has been checking boxes and attaching his names to things because he ought to as the future King.

    • Etha says:

      They’ve really always had a Harry problem. He’s always been more charming, more hardworking, more empathetic, more travelled, more open to learning about other cultures.

      • Tessa says:

        The interesting family members were treated badly. And left.the boring wails are uninspiring and dull.

    • KaMo says:

      Painful thinking that William is Diana’s son and Harry’s brother. He definitely inherited all of his negative attributes from Charles.

    • Christine says:

      It seems to me like the best thing that could have happened to Harry, since he had to be born into that family, is to be the spare.

      • kirk says:

        You may be right about Harry being lucky being the spare, if you consider the rest of the family’s unconscious egotism and unconscious privilege. But it got plenty hairy when there was no exit strategy.

  16. Barbara says:

    They look like they were going to two different events. As dumb as KC3 is, at least he’s a snazzy dresser. Did he not teach William anything?

    • tamsin says:

      Charles WAS a snazzy dresser. Now he just looks like an escape from a period piece. Pictures of him in some African Commonwealth country- very 19th C colonial look.

    • BeanieBean says:

      I’m wondering if William is color blind. Or his valet is (bet he has one).

  17. Kelsey says:

    Kate sure does love her some dainty gold jewelry all the sudden…

  18. Sue E Generis says:

    Does someone have a bit more hair on top?

  19. Mslove says:

    Shouldn’t Pegs be working on solving homelessness? Why is he binge watching Netflix?

    • Laura D says:

      @Mslove

      It also begs the question as to why he’s giving Netflix free advertising? Surely he should be promoting the BBC? Is hoping to get some kind of contract with them? Has he finally got his head out of his arse and realised Netflix is a global company which could raise the profile of his causes far more than the sewer rats he uses in the UK?

      Others on here would know better than myself but, didn’t he want Netflix or Amazon to cover “Earthshot?”

      • Becks1 says:

        i don’t know about Earthshot (I assume he did) but he definitely tried to get Netflix and Amazon for his documentar – “Prince William – A Planet for Us All” which is currently on Discovery Plus I think. If its still there. it was not a big success lol.

      • Jensa says:

        So much for him supposedly boycotting Netflix because of their deal with the Sussexes.

      • Mslove says:

        As for the Netflix comments, Pegs has always been fickle to everything & everyone.

    • Sherri says:

      When you don’t actually do ANYTHING you have plenty of time to Netflix.

  20. Ely says:

    Kaiser you continue to knock it out of the park with your selection of photos. Chapeau!

  21. Laura D says:

    Another puff piece for another pointless photo-op. Yes they went to Birmingham, yes the crowds were pleased to see them but, what else? We find out that William had wished he learned to break dance. What a load of baloney! He’s 40 not 80. There’s nothing stopping him learning to dance now. Ok he’ll never be as flexible as he was in his teens and 20s but, he could still learn a few basic moves. I’m sure there are plenty of dance instructors in urban centres who would be more than happy to tutor him. In fact he could spearhead an activity programme for the over 40s encouraging people that it’s never too late to learn. He could also tag it into getting people active! But, no all we get is “poor me, I never learned to dance.” SMH

  22. Renae says:

    “Should have done more work when I was younger”. Agreed, but how about doing more work NOW? What’s the excuse?

  23. M says:

    They look very tan for April in the UK. I guess we know where they went when no one saw them for a month. I wonder if they went together?

    • SarahCS says:

      My guess is she did a week + on the fancy island they love and he maybe went to whichever African country Jecca currently lives in.

    • notasugarhere says:

      April is for their end-of-season ski holidays. The Midds have always spent the weeks around Easter skiing.

  24. Size Does Matter says:

    Well color me surprised he admits to watching anything on Netflix.

    • Christine says:

      He thinks he’s being clever, by admitting to watching Netflix, while swearing up and down he hasn’t read Harry’s book or watched Harry and Meghan. Please. No one believes you, Willnot.

  25. Sophie says:

    Well, coulda, woulda, shoulda, Will! You have sooo much time in your hands and you do nothing with it! FGS, download duolingo and learn a new language!

  26. Michelle says:

    The rumpled shirt that shows his chest is so cheesey. For the love of God, someone tell the future monarch not to dress like he has a hangover in Las Vegas. Such a skeevy vibe.

  27. Tessa says:

    No kidding William. You are stating the obvious. Kate had one part time job that did not last.long. I wonder if she’ll say she regretted not working more but I doubt it.

  28. Amy Bee says:

    William is such an uninteresting and boring person

  29. Tessa says:

    Kate guffaws and makes faces and uses jazz hands

  30. JanetDR says:

    I’ll give them this – they don’t look like they hate each other at this event.

    • Tessa says:

      Too bad Kate could not control herself on that walkabout with the sussexes. The wails look fake when they play happy couple.

    • Harper says:

      Willy does that entire phone prank with Kate right at his side. She was speaking to him, pawing him, guffawing loudly at him during the whole time, but to him, she just wasn’t there. I would have gotten the message and given up long ago if I were Kate.

      • SURE says:

        That prank is quite insulting because we, the audience, are meant to find it hysterical that W is taking a restaurant booking which of course he would never need to do because he’s just become £20+m wealthier. Oh how funny it is to pretend for a minute to be working class. These two always come across as entitled, overpaid teenagers and this prank just reinforces that image.

    • one of the marys says:

      Yes I was impressed with their performance. Did they have a restorative vacation? Do they have a new drive to put on a united front ahead of the coronation? Are they working as a team to defend themselves against C&C? Something is going on

      • ML says:

        Potential damage control if the Marca article accusing him of emotional abuse is true.
        In a sort of: the enemy of my enemy is my friend line of thinking, W&K are probably less than pleased that Camzilla’s family is being lifted to prominence during the Chubbly and Camz is dropping the consort title. Maybe something was leaked from BP or a lie was told by BP that they disapprove of? K’s hunched and gripping her hands in some shots, but the two of them definitely look closer than they have been.

    • notasugarhere says:

      They should be given razzies for their OTT attempts to pretend they can stand each other.

  31. WingKingdom says:

    Whenever we hear quotes from what William has said to people, he ALWAYS makes it about himself. No matter what they say, he has to then talk about himself.

  32. Tessa says:

    Will looks awkward when he dances. Imo

  33. AnneL says:

    Is Kate wearing a dress or is that a coat? It’s hanging off of her. She always looks very thin but usually her clothes are tailored to her frame. I don’t like her but I do think she is struggling with an eating disorder and it’s alarming.

    Personally I am glad William never learned to break dance. Spare us that, please.

    • Chrissy says:

      But could you imagine him showing off his break dancing prowess at the Jubilee concert, perhaps opening for Lionel Ritchie? He could then count it as an engagement! I bet he never thought of that!

  34. HamsterJam says:

    In that one picture he is looking at her somewhat fondly, the last time I saw that was during the Caribbean Disaster Tour when they were actually holding hands on the way back to their hotel room for crack babies.

    I would imagine that at least those two would bond over how awful they are at their “work” and how much they dislike it.

    • Tessa says:

      He is acting. He looks so fake when he tries to pose with her and play happy husband. Maybe he was told to do that by advisors. He looks so fake and so does Kate. This is damage control for the stories that they don’t get along.

    • Becks1 says:

      He can fake it a lot better at events where she does not have to talk a lot and there is something to distract them – like when they visit a farm or there is something sports-related etc. Its when they try to do the heavier visits and she tries to say important things (or worse, give a speech) that he can’t contain his disdain.

    • Jais says:

      Maybe they are bonding over a war with Camilla. Let them attack her as opposed to Meghan.

  35. Emma says:

    Just a moment? Since when did ‘a moment’ mean his whole adult life?!!

    It’s the fact he sounds like he thinks he’s working more now. He’s not working enough now. His number of public engagements is woeful. How many days actual work does he do in any given week? How long are their holidays? Value for money to the taxpayer? I don’t think so, makes me mad my hard earned taxes are paying for the pair of them.

  36. Lizzie says:

    I believe the Wails arrived by train, my question is did they arrive to board the train separately?

    • Becks1 says:

      My guess is yes and that’s why they took the train – they probably met at the train station. Remember when they went to Birmingham for the commonwealth games over the summer they arrived separately – Kate by train, William by helicopter – and that got a surprising amount of coverage on social media. they probably wanted to avoid that happening again.

  37. NMB says:

    I’m seeing these pics, and I’m looking at some on the Daily Mail….they look happier and a lot more engaged than they have. It’s fascinating to watch their body language and nonverbals.

  38. Alice says:

    I’m too tired to deal with some posh twit thinking he should have done more with his crazy amount of privilege while also talking about what he’s watching on Netflix.

    But WTAF is up with Button’s blush? She looks embalmed. I haven’t seen people do with that brown-y plum blush since the last time I watched a rerun of the original Dynasty. That’s awful.

  39. Over it says:

    Your welfare spoiled ass is 40. You are plenty young and quite capable of doing work at this very moment, but you won’t . It’s been a month other than going to church for a couple of hours and i bet that’s it from you until next week or the following week. So you see willy. You really don’t give a rats ass about working before , now or never . And why would you when your country still gives you all the perks but don’t demand any of the work .

  40. Jensa says:

    Can’t one of Kate’s handlers gently advise her to ditch the grinning hyena pose and not keep her gob wide open all the time – you can almost see her tonsils on a couple of these.

  41. C says:

    I absolutely hate the color of her dress but that is just a personal thing, LOL (don’t care for berry shades in a lot of clothes). I prefer her in dark green or red.

    Not a fan of them but this was an okay visit. At least they didn’t just go to Selfridges at the Bullring in Birmingham or something. And I think he’s getting better at talking to people even if not self-aware.

    William is doing an arts and culture tour, but he couldn’t research what modern dance entails? That break dancing comment totally a non sequitor. This is Willy winging it at his best.

    This event seems to have gone well for the Waleses. It is the sort of thing the royals are expected to do, and if Meghan and Harry were in the UK, they too would be doing these sorts of events. However, Harry also did impactful work with his patronages, and of course he had Invictus but nobody made any comparisons to the difference in Harry’s work and William’s and Kate’s. When Meghan did her pre-wedding events with Harry, it was immediately apparent that she was going to be popular and liked. When she created the cookbook, had a smashingly successful foreign tour, oversaw the creation of a capsule collection for Smart Works, then by comparison, the Waleses looked like they really needed to up their game to keep up. Instead of being inspired to do more, and try to copy Harry and Meghan’s work ethic, they decided that smearing Meghan would be the way forward. Their jealousy and lack of accomplishments ruled the day. So the Waleses are back to doing what was originally expected of them, but trashing Meghan and Harry still makes more money for the press. What a tragic state of affairs.

      Agreed Tamsin. They should just keep doing this. I could care less. Just keep H+M’s names out your mouth, and stay in your lane! Unfortunately, H+M live rent-free in their heads, plus they’re the moneymakers (and style makers).

    Have you seen the tv show The Windsors?
    Prince William is constantly saying “We don’t DO anything but cut ribbons.”
    Kate is a gypsy grifter saving old scrap metal.
    Camilla is scheming to Bring In The Parker-Bowles reign.
    Charles is as dumb as a tree, repeatedly.
    It is hilarious! Starting to seem like a prophesy not a parody.

    • TarteAuCitron says:

      It is a hoot. Evil Pippawwww is fantastic :)))

      I love how the actress who plays Camilla in The Windsors played Lady Susan Hussey in The Crown.

      • MipMip says:

        Yes! I’m so excited for the Windsors coronation special. I’m in the US so I hope it pops up on Netflix quickly. Perhaps Bulliam will watch since he’s a big Netflix fan.

        @tarteaucitron I cackled when I saw “Camilla” on The Crown. Then there was the whole IRL racisming episode and it seemed apropos, in a dark way.

        My favorites on The Windsors are the York sisters and Fergie.

    I want to see a movie where a teen prince is forbidden to dance as if his father is the preacher from ‘Footloose.’ Every time he’s in public, he clenches his fists to try to stifle his innate sense of rhythm, as if every cell in his body isn’t calling out for him to dance. To DANCE! But every night he sneaks out to a break dancing club to express himself, and Twelve Dancing Princesses style his father can’t figure out why every morning his son needs new shoes.

  46. HeyKay says:

    Above link
    Liev Schrieber 31 y/o gf is pregnant. Liev has to be 50 something. Another classic mid life crisis.
    I am so tired of these 50 y/o men who leave their long time partners w/children and start up with a 20 something who looks very much like their previous partner.
    McAvoy
    Russell Crowe
    Liev
    Ron Perlman
    And a bajillion more I can’t think of at the moment.

  47. HeyKay says:

    Done more work when I was younger. LOL
    Do more work NOW FFS.

  48. L4Frimaire says:

    This is definitely their comfort zone type of events. The smile and wave walkabout with polite conversation. I saw some clip of him in a restaurant taking reservations and he wasn’t very good at that but they were amused by it. Kate has her mothers face.

  49. Inge says:

    Why are they always going to pubs and drinking alcohol?

  50. jane says:

    she has realized meghan is not coming to the coronation now shes has no scapegoat anymore!!!

  51. BeanieBean says:

    ‘Done more work’ is the phrasing of someone who’s never actually worked. And his biggest regret is not learning how to breakdance? That’s…something. And Kate, your husband is not that funny, stop guffawing at his every attempt at humor. You’re an enabler.

    • kelleybelle says:

      Way overdone, isn’t it? What can be this uproariously funny?

      • HeyKay says:

        It is way over done.
        IIRC years ago W, K, H went to Wall Street and took phone calls/trades for a charity or something. Huge, huge grins and guffaws, as if the FFK has a magic power to speak on a phone and get his photo taken at the same time.

  52. Lizzie says:

    They both enjoy mugging for the cameras.

  53. NotSoSocialB says:

    I read the title and immediately heard in my mind the collective “ya think?” from we Celebitches.

  54. HennyO says:

    It’s sounds like lazy a*s baldy spends most of his time hanging in front of the TV, binge watching series. In Spare Harry has told us already that he and Kitty watched Suits ‘religiously’. Good luck with your future king, UK.

  55. HennyO says:

    Here me out. I have a theory.
    All the overacting, trying to be touchy with Willy and the uncontrolable grinning that Kitty is doing at engagements with him, is to show his mistress(es) that She is the main woman.
    Her fake performative behavior is not so much an attempt to be Meghan2.0, but rather a desperate fixation to prove to 🌹 c.s. that SHE still matters to Willy.

  56. QuiteContraryi says:

    So Willy had an epiphany and it was that he regrets not learning to breakdance.

    He has no clue how most people work and live. They are both empty vessels.

  57. Typical Virgo says:

    I don’t know if this has already been mentioned but how goofy is that one pic of Kate waving?

    Her wave kind of reminds me of the Miss America wave.

  58. Saschafrom76 says:

    They’re both sporting the Desperate Divorcees Neckline it’s over for them it’s official lol I can totally see William incandescently unbuttoning his shirt when he saw her cexkoine- which she probably wore because he’s always unbuttoning his shirt lol I speak Impending Divorce fluently. People who think KKKhate is going to do poorly in this divorce are going to be really disappointed. Me included. Because Kate is going to Marry UP Avery easily – much as we don’t like her she’s got the mentality and the history that is catnip to some very particular type of rich dudes that are more wealthy in celebrity and or dollars. Wills and his Bucktooth turnip Toff set are literally the only people impressed by themselves, and they’re all gonna look like inbred idiots when she is richer and more famous than all of them together. Tom Cruise ring a bell, anybody? Just an example of the medias interest in her

  59. RoyalBlue says:

    I thought the phone call was terrible and William and Kate came across looking like two fools. Uhh, what street are we on? (kate swivels head and giggles) What is across the street from us (kate looks and grins maniacally). I can’t imagine her Maj and Phillip behaving like that. so immature.

  60. Cassie says:

    Well they put on a big performance of togetherness and happiness in this visit .

    Made be feel nauseous actually .

    • Kit says:

      Cassie, have to say this visit even for them was over the top , just act normal , such dim ejits, what is interesting though is how clingy she was to William, she knows he wants out but God she is so hard to kick out !

  61. Isa says:

    I’m laughing at fact that he’s talking about what he watches on Netflix, I’m sure he definitely scrolled by his brother’s documentary. Where he knew he would be mentioned.

  62. Greatest regret of the future king of England is doing very little work at 40 years old. Wow. He’s really privileged and entitled while everybody is breaking his backbone to be able to put food on the table. The future king is a sloth who soaks himself in idleness and indolence.

  63. sammi says:

    This was a set up crowds for the initial cheers as no forward press release they were going. His biggest regret is not learning to break dance? Says it all about this couple and their lack of awareness and connection to the lives of others and the world. This has major press coverage when the climate rebellions in London drew thousands this weekend and hardly any coverage. Mass exodus of good journalists/presenters from the BBC as it turns more Tory and biased by the day with their Tory elected Chairman still under investigation for his involvement with Boris Johnson’s money loan. Musgs will go to every child born on Coronation day to but no money or good helthcare for them and their family….but the first five years are so improtant. Makes you cry for the lack of future optimism for uk young and old.
