Prince William’s ‘Cruel Jibes at Kate Middleton’ Revealed: How Royal ‘Shockingly Joked She Looked As If She Had Fallen Through a Charity Shop Before She Got Formal Etiquette Training’
Prince William once called out his wife Kate Middleton’s lack of fashion before she received formal training on style, a new royals book as claimed.
While Middleton is now seen at the top of the pack when it comes to fashion, it appears that wasn’t always the case as William is said to have made a brutal joke at her expense, RadarOnline.com can reveal.
Royal expert and journalist Tom Quinn’s new book, Yes Ma’am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants, includes one excerpt which highlights the moment William was apparently not too fond of how Middleton was dressing.
According to Quinn, one of William’s advisers said: “Before Kate realized that as a senior royal you have to dress carefully, having taken advice, she once bought an outfit that William considered inappropriate.
“He told Kate she looked as if in order to dress she’d just run through a charity shop covered in superglue. Everyone thought this was very funny, including, to her credit, Kate.”
However, Quinn suggested Middleton has no problem giving it back to her husband, also calling him out from time to time.
“She enjoys ribbing him about his family,” Quinn writes in his book.
He added: “She insists that, as he gets older, William increasingly looks like his great-great-great grandfather Edward VII’ – whose waist measured 48 inches shortly before his coronation.”
Edward was the second child and eldest son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. During his life, Edward is said to have been a heavy smoker and enjoyed eating quite a bit, leading to an overweight figure as well as balding.
