Catherine, Princess of Wales

Kate Middleton’s life story resembles a modern fairy tale. While studying at college, an attractive, intelligent, and ambitious girl from an ordinary family falls in love with a wealthy prince. And today, when the monarchy is going through a transition period, Catherine is destined to become the first “queen from the common people” in British history since Anne Hyde, wife of James II. Catherine Middleton became the Duchess of Cambridge on the day of her wedding, April 29, 2011. The beautiful duchess won the love of her fellow citizens through her warmth, contagious smile, sense of style, and incredible diligence. Her willingness to laugh at herself, unwavering ethical principles, friendliness, and accessibility made the harmonious duo of Kate and William extraordinarily popular. On September 9, 2022, Kate became the tenth Princess of Wales since 1328, when her husband William was made Prince of Wales by his father Charles III immediately after the accession to the throne. This title is traditionally given to the wife of the direct heir to the British (and previously English) throne and means that the holder is destined to become the next queen consort of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
