Fans In Tears: Private William, Catherine NOTABLE Moment Finally Revealed After Tense Event
It may be hard to believe, but Princess Katherine’s life was not always a whirlwind of tiaras. Before stepping into the royal spotlight and attending the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, where she met her future husband, just like millions of others, the beloved Princess of Wales once had a normal job. The love story between her and William is like a real-life fairy tale. After their coincidental meeting as teenagers, the romance began to bloom, resulting in one of the most adored royal love stories of all time.
This year, their relationship has faced an unprecedented amount of change amid the princess’s cancer diagnosis, with a royal admitting she’s doing well but is not out of the woods yet. Relying on her lifelong partner for love and support, as well as positive messages from the public, Katherine said in her last public statement, “It really has made the world of difference to William and me and has helped us both through some of the harder times.”
Looking back on their enduring love, royal fans have taken to social media to relive some of the couple’s most precious moments together, including the day they announced their engagement to the world. One clip in particular has sparked interest among royal fans. As the couple attended a service at St. Paul’s Cathedral as part of the late Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June 2022, since their feud became public, royal events attended by both royal brothers have been rare. However, the warring brothers managed to put their differences aside to honor their late grandmother in what was their and their wives’ first public appearance at a royal event since quitting the monarchy.
Despite coming together at the event, the pair were seated far apart and were not seen chatting or even standing next to each other, but it still made for a tense service, which was also attended by William’s wife, Catherine. After the service, the couple was seen chatting on the steps of the cathedral as they waited for their car to take them to Guildhall for a lunch reception. An expert lip reader has revealed what he believes was said during this exchange, which included a clear instruction for Catherine from William. As they emerged onto the steps, the princess remarked on the service, saying, “It went very well, very well,” with William replying, “Yes, perfect.” Afterwards, William could be seen waving to the crowd, saying hello, and then turning to the princess and saying, “Wait for that to move, then we can go.”
Another memorable moment occurred during their engagement interview. The now mother of three was asked how she felt about becoming a working member of the royal family. At the same time, William patted his wife’s thigh and gently squeezed her knee. Fans were quick to notice the princess’s nerves and William’s reassuring leg pat, rushing to the comments of the now-viral post.
One other moment left many royal watchers at their historic wedding scratching their heads. It may seem strange that a groom wouldn’t watch his new wife walk down the aisle, but it’s not so uncommon in the United Kingdom. In the U.S., the groom faces the bride and watches as she walks down the aisle, but in the U.K., it’s customary for the groom to face away from the bride and turn around only when she reaches the altar. Catherine’s procession down the aisle took 4 minutes, accompanied by her father, Michael Middleton. William didn’t turn around at all as she walked the length of the long aisle; however, Prince Harry did sneak a peek at his future sister-in-law. He reportedly whispered to his brother, “Wait until you see her.”
One of the most striking non-traditional elements at the Wales’s wedding was that Katherine enlisted her sister, Pippa Middleton, as a bridesmaid. Traditionally, children are bridesmaids at royal weddings. Consequently, Prince William had Prince Harry as his best man instead of what is traditionally called a “supporter.” The role of best man typically doesn’t exist in British weddings. Typically, weddings have only one officiant; however, the prince and princess had three clergymen. These included the Dean of Westminster, Reverend Bishop Dr. John Hall, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Rowan Williams, and the Bishop of London, Richard Chartres.
This couple didn’t leave for their honeymoon right away, which is typical of royal couples. Instead, they reportedly waited 10 days before jetting off to a deluxe vacation in the Seychelles. As reports suggest, they opted out of wedding gifts; thus, instead of a multitude of presents, they asked for donations.
