Kate Middleton may have been enjoying a week off from being the center of yet another controversy, but she should get ready to dive back in. A new report reveals that while Prince William was partying in Switzerland with his model friends, Kate Middleton was actually celebrating Pippa Middleton’s hen do (or Bachelorette party in America) with her in Meribel, France.
A source tells the Sun, “Pippa loves skiing so it was her first choice for a hen weekend. They stayed in a really exclusive catered chalet with maids and chef, who ensured that they were totally spoilt.” And spoilt, they were. The source adds, “The owners also wanted to impress their royal guests so the girls were showered with gifts. They were given Swatch watches, Ugg slippers, leather-bound notebooks and bespoke fragrances. It was a very small, private party and they had an amazing time.”
And lest you get any ideas, the private jet that took them there was reportedly paid for by the Middletons, because Pippa IS getting married to wealthy ‘tycoon’ James Matthews. However, the criticism doesn’t necessarily die there, given that we all assumed that Kate was staying at home and taking care of the children while her significant other was creating a worldwide scandal. But alas, we should have known better. Kate Middleton may not have missed the Commonwealth Day celebrations like her husband, but the idea that she was at home and doing actual work? Please.
She may not have been causing her marriage to fracture with inappropriate partying, dancing, and flirting, but she most certainly wasn’t doing any work. After all, why would she? She has an army of people at home to take care of the children, and both she and her husband have proved their extreme reticence to doing any work.
Instead – and much as she’s done in the past – she took the opportunity to jet off to France and have a fun party with her sister, because why work when you don’t have to?
What do you guys think of Kate Middleton’s hen do celebrations in France? Given that she didn’t miss the celebrations, is it right that Prince William is facing the bulk of the criticism for his endless ‘work shy’ ways, or should Kate Middleton now share the blame?
