After rumors lasting two weeks regarding Prince William proposing to long time girl friend, Kate Middleton, his proposal was officially announced on Tuesday, November 16. The couple met about 10 years ago at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. When the two started dating there was some disagreement because she is not royalty and it is was expected for William to marry a woman of royalty. However, many announced that they were happy for the couple.
It has been reported that Prince William respectfully asked his own father for permission to marry Kate. He proposed with Princess Diana’s ring, which she received from Prince Charles. After the marriage they plan to move to Wales. Prince William and Kate Middleton are planning the wedding to be in London, in either spring or summer time of next year.
Prince William is second in line for the throne after his father, Prince Charles, and Queen Elizabeth is currently on the throne. After Prince Charles takes the throne Kate Middleton will be the princess. Royalty watchers are anticipating this wedding to be the wedding of the century.
