Kate Middleton’s Life Up Close: Royal Elegance, Glamor and Public Family Idyll

However, a source close to Kensington Palace claimed that Kate has lost one of the most important things when she became the wife of Britain’s Prince William.

Various speculations about the editing of Kate Middleton’s photos, the romance of Prince William and Marchioness Rose Hanbury have not yet died down. Moreover, these talks were reinforced after Stephen Colbert even coined the new term “Katespiracy” to refer to the unknown whereabouts of the Duchess of Cambridge on his late night show “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert”. And like thunder from a clear sky. Kate Middleton has cancer and is undergoing preventive chemotherapy, the Princess of Wales announced in a personal video message released by Kensington Palace last Friday.

While angry tongues once wag and called Kate Middleton a poor and modern-day Cinderella, because she is not of aristocratic origin and not at all suitable for a prince as a couple, many people probably did not know that Prince William and Kate Middleton are distant relatives who share a common ancestor. This is Sir Thomas Leighton, a diplomat and former Governor of Guernsey for 40 years. He is William’s 12th generation great-grandfather and Kate’s 11th generation, making the two 12th generation cousins, according to the Daily Mail.

Meanwhile, in the article “MA Genealogists: Kate Middleton Has Ties To George Washington” published on the cbsnews.com portal, it is written that the wife of Britain’s Prince William has certain kinship ties with famous Americans, including the first president of the United States.

The New England Historic Genealogical Society in Boston has announced that Kate Middleton is an eighth cousin to George Washington. Their common ancestor, Sir William Gascoigne, died in 1487.
