April 15, 2007 Prince William and Kate Middleton Call it Quits.

Though many in the media thought Kate Middleton and Prince William were headed for a storybook wedding, the young couple finally decided to split after a four year relationship. Many UK papers site media pressures and the prince being deployed to fight in Iraq as the reason for the split but others say that Middleton wasn’t royal material. An unnammed UK newspaper said that William, 24 was quoted as saying “that the fun had gone out of their relationship.” If after four years in a relationship, if William is thinking about fun, they’d probably better back off the marriage speculations for another decade or two.
Hopefully William is not being forced through a royal ordeal like his father who was unable to marry the woman that he desired but ended up cheating on his wife Diana, the Princess of Wales for her anyway. . . then ultimately marrying the woman we know as Camilla Parker Bowles. No matter what happens, Middleton probably had a wonderful fairy tale life for a few years and I’m sure that’s a better story than most of us have to tell our grandchildren someday.
