My Dear Royal Fans

I was at the mall yesterday shopping at my favorite book store. I was looking at magazine  and People this week had our lovely Duchess of Cambridge on the cover. But for some reason the American Press( I am American) call her Princess. She received the title of Duchess of Cambridge when she married Prince William. Prince William was giving the title of Duke of Cambridge from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II( His Grandmother). So therefore he and his wife are know as: Their Royal Highness Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. Catherine one day will be a Princess when her husband becomes the next Prince of Wales. When his father becomes King Charles. But that is not happen anytime soon in near future. So correct people say no Catherine is Duchess of Cambridge.

Here is the order from Her Majesty:
THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT IS ISSUED BY THE PRESS SECRETARY TO THE QUEEN
The Queen has today been pleased to confer a Dukedom on Prince William of Wales. His titles will be Duke of Cambridge, Earl of Strathearn and Baron Carrickfergus.
Prince William thus becomes His Royal Highness The Duke of  Cambridge and Miss Catherine Middleton on marriage will become Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge.

As I like to say her Majesty has spoken!!!

The Beautiful Duchesss!

Duchess delights: Catherine cracks up as Harry the Royal joker quips his way through Trooping the Colour

He is becoming as renowned as his grandfather the Duke of Edinburgh for livening up formal Royal events with wisecracks.
At Trooping the Colour, Prince Harry took the opportunity to entertain the Royal Family with his quips and had his new sister-in-law Catherine in stitches on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
But the Duchess of Cambridge, who was wearing a form-fitting, double-breasted fitted ivory jacket and dress, with a dramatic black hat, seemed to give as good as she got and at one point, had Harry covering his face with his hands.

Formal: Prince Harry looks unusually serious as he stands behind his new sister-in-law Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, on the balcony of Buckingham Palace

Royal Joker: Harry hides his face as Catherine bursts out laughing at the Trooping the Colour to mark the Queen's 85th birthday

As the Queen’s official birthday parade and fly-past took place, Catherine looked as ease among her new Royal relatives and particularly Harry, with whom she and William are currently sharing an apartment at Clarence House.

It was the first time that the newly-weds have had such a prominent role in a Royal Family event. They appeared relaxed as Prince William also made Catherine giggle with his jokes.
Yesterday’s ceremony marked the first time he had taken part in the parade on horseback.
As The Mail on Sunday revealed he would do weeks ago, William escorted the Queen on a grey horse called Wellesley.

Last night friends of the 28-year-old Royal said he had been more nervous ahead of the ceremony than his new wife, who seemed quite at home as she rode in a horse-drawn barouche.
William, in a bearskin which at one point threatened to slip down his face, wore the scarlet Irish Guards uniform he was married in.
The parade marks the Queen’s official birthday on June 11 and takes place on Horse Guards Parade, which was lined with wellwishers.
The Queen, who is marking her 85th birthday, arrived with Prince Philip, who celebrated his 90th birthday on Friday.

Haven't we seen that somewhere before Kate? Newest Royal learns to recycle her style to celebrate Duke's 90th birthday

Her choice of clothes is already one of the most scrutinised in the world.
But the Duchess of Cambridge is also following a fine Royal tradition: to reuse favourite items as much as possible.
Yesterday at a church service to mark the 90th birthday of the Duke of Edinburgh, Kate wore the same periwinkle blue Jacquard coat dress that she sported to the 2009 wedding of her husband’s close friend, Nicholas van Cutsem.

Happy couple: The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were in good spirits as they spoke to the Dean of Windsor, Reverend David Conner, after a service to mark Prince Philip's 90th birthday at Windsor Castle

Pristine: Catherine, pictured with Prince Harry looking on as she greets the clergy, wore a blue Jacquard coat with colour-matching hat and dress

On her feet were the nude £175 LK Bennett heels that both she and her sister, Pippa, have been seen wearing on several occasions recently – most notably on Derby Day.
By dusting down the old, she echoes the policy of the Queen and the Princess Royal - both of whom take great delight in getting the most out of their wardrobes.

Kate, Zara Phillips, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie all tottered into St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle, braving whipping winds and driving rain, for a church service to mark the landmark occasion.

Re-run: The Duchess wore the same coat when she and attended the wedding of Nicholas Van Cutsem and Alice Haddon Patton before she was married, right, but teamed it with a different dress and hat

Zara arrived with her mother, Princess Anne but without fiancé Mike Tindall who is currently on his stag weekend in Miami.
Zara’s brother, Peter Phillips, did, however, fly back from the Tindall holiday for yesterday’s service, which he attended with his wife, Autumn Kelly.
His wife-to-be was wearing a pair of black stilettos with a hidden platform sole so high that she was barely able to make the short walk from her official car to the church.

Dazzling accessories: Catherine wore diamond and sapphire earrings which coordinated with her engagement ring, which first belonged to Prince William's mother Princess Diana

Room for one more: Prince Harry arrived and quickly ducked under the umbrella Prince William held aloft for his wife, who was wearing her family favourite LK Bennett heels

The group had been due to walk down to the chapel from the castle but the bad weather meant cars were called instead.
Beatrice and Eugenie looked pretty but frozen in chiffon summer dresses. Beatrice, 22, was forced to take refuge behind a police protection officer as she struggled to smooth down her dress which was whipped up by the wind.

Family affair: Princess Anne, left,  arrived at the service with her Zara, while her son Peter attended with his wife Autumn who wore a blue suit with black high heels

Lord Freddie Windsor’s wife, the actress Sophie Winkleman, looked stunning in an oversized cream straw hat and nipped-in jacket.
Sophie, 30, whose husband wasn’t present, was accompanied by her in-laws, Prince and Princess Michael of Kent.
She flashed a dazzling smile at the cameras rather than studiously ignoring them like the rest of the Royal pack.
The man of the hour, Prince Philip, arrived last with the Queen, who was dressed in sky blue and aquamarines, and looked remarkably cheerful given that he had insisted he didn’t want a fuss.

Stylish: Lady Frederick Windsor, the actress Sophie Winkleman, pictured left with her father-in-law, Prince Michael of Kent, didn't let the wet weather stop her wearing a summery cream dress

Smart: The Duchess of Cornwall, pictured with her husband Prince Charles, also opted for cream

In accordance with his wishes, the 50 minute service only saw the briefest of references to his birthday, which was actually on Friday.
The Dean of Windsor sparked laughs among the 750-strong congregation when he told them during his sermon that although the ‘modest and self-depreciating’ Duke had made clear he didn’t want to make a big deal of the event, it was important to pay tribute to his years of service to both his wife and the country.

My husband and I: The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh looked happy and relaxed at the service

Rain, rain, go away: Meanwhile, Sophie, The Countess of Wessex, looked glum as she braved the conditions

Afterwards the entire gathering, which included family, friends, foreign royalty, estate and household staff, charity representatives and members of the polo, carriage driving and shooting fraternities, headed back up to Windsor Castle for a champagne reception.
After the 45 minute event, 100 close family members – including the Prince’s Mountbatten relatives – enjoyed a lavish private lunch.

All smiles: Lord Linley and Lady Sarah Chatto arrive
