Kate's 30th Birthday, party plans, send Kate a card and childhood photos.

Can you all believe Kate is turning 30 on Monday? I for one cannot. I've been following Kate's style and her relationship with William since the tender age of twelve, when Kate was a student at St. Andrews University. It's incredible to think how far they've come and I anticipate it will be another wonderful year for the Duchess. It's also a good time to look back on Kate's younger years.

Kate looking adorable aged six.




Kate attended St Andrew's prep school in pangbourne aged seven.

Fifteen year old Kate excelled at sport.




Kate studied science and art for her A levels.




Kate studied History of art at St Andrews where she met a very special guy :)




The Daily Mail have several more photographs in their article here.


We are interested to know how Kate will celebrate her birthday. According to Grazia, party planner Pippa and Prince Harry have some interesting ideas including an 80's bash. The party is set to include cocktails and karaoke. 
Royal reporter Richard Palmer heard Kate is planning a very low key celebration which is truthfully what I expected. Possibly a dinner with family and close friends? I would be more inclined to believe that it will be low key. However Kate chooses to celebrate I hope she has a wonderful time.




It's not too late to personally wish Duchess Kate a Happy Birthday, you may address you card too




It's going to be an interesting week, Sunday night William and Kate are attending the premiere of 'War Horse' and I expect Kate will be announcing which charities she wishes to support tomorrow. I will post as soon as news comes in. Hoping for new photos then :)

Kate Middleton plays Prince Charming

At just ten years old, Kate Middleton proved she was ready to be a royal by starring in a school play as 'Prince Charming'. Kate is clearly a natural and shows off her acting skills wonderfully playing a lovesick prince. 'Oh wow, woe, woe is me. I'm in love. I can't eat. I can't sleep, I can't concentrate on everything. My memory is gone'. A friend asked her 'How long has this being going on?' The Duchess of Cambridge displays perfect comic timing replying, 'Has what been going on?' The audience filled with parents of the school children bursts into a fit of laughter. Kate throughly entertained the crowd.

Little did she know in 1992 that she would be marrying 'Prince Charming'. Kate participated as often as she could at St Andrew's prep school in Pangbourne, Berks. She also played 'Eliza Doolittle' and narrated 'Joseph and the  Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat'. Kate's most memorable role as a girl who speaks about marrying a prince. He's all I ever hoped for, rich and handsome, he'll fall in love with me and marry me. Yes, oh yes dear William'. This is quite a massive coincidence and surely very entertaining for the Middleton family and indeed, the royal couple to look back on!
