A new book, Gilded Youth: An Intimate History of Growing Up in the Royal Family, by Tom Quinn, has revealed some very private details of the early stages of Prince William’s relationship with his current wife, Princess of Wales Kate Middleton.
The book recounts the details of the test that Kate Middleton underwent by the royal family, before she was allowed to be the wife of Britain’s future king, Prince William.
According to what was stated in one of the chapters of the book, the members of the royal family have always viewed Kate as the ideal bride, and the perfectly appropriate woman to wear the royal crown, but despite this great positive feeling, the royal family wanted to make sure that the new bride fully complied with the smallest details that pertaining to their lives.
One of the most important things the royal family wanted to make sure of was that Kate would preserve the offspring of the Windsor family, so he asked her to undergo a medical examination to ensure her fertility.
“This is always done to ensure that the future queen can bear children,” says the book’s author. Author Tom Quinn adds: “If Kate had not been fertile, there is no doubt that the marriage would have failed.”
This test, which was considered the most difficult and painful that Kate went through, did not constitute any obstacle to completing the marriage, because its results were positive in the laboratory, and in fact, Kate gave the family three other heirs.
The Princess of Wales was not the only one who underwent this examination, which many describe as a tradition dating back to ancient times, and say that today it is discrimination in most sectors of society.
William and Kate’s subsequent wedding took place on April 29, 2011, at Westminster Abbey.
On the other hand, Kate and William’s relationship recently topped a lot of headlines, which started talking regarding an alleged betrayal of the Prince of Wales with an ex-girlfriend of his wife named Rose Hanbury.
In a different context, the British Daily Mail newspaper revealed that the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, is fully prepared to present prizes to the winners of the Wimbledon tennis tournament that will be held this summer, regardless of their nationalities, even if some of the winning players are from Russia, which is waging a fierce war once morest Ukraine.
The newspaper confirmed that Kate will not abandon the tradition of handing over trophies to the winners of individual competitions, as a sponsor of English clubs, and that she will not mind crowning the winner, regardless of his nationality, regardless of his country’s political relations with Britain. It should be noted that the Russian players will participate as neutral players, and their country or nationality will not be mentioned during the tournament.
