Yes that's right, it's been a year since Wills and Kate tied the knot.
On this day in 2011, millions of viewers flocked to the streets of London and world wide to their TV's, to watch His Royal Highness Prince William marry Catherine Middleton. The wedding was held in Westminister Abbey, with a guest list well over one and a half thousand people. It is estimated that nearly 24.5 million people watched the wedding live in the United Kingdom, whilst roughly 300 million to two billion people watched world wide.
Whilst there are various websites and fan clubs that support Wills and Kate (sites that continue to obsess over their wedding with pictures and memorabilia) it would appear that the press would rather focus on the little things that have almost nothing to do with the marriage of William and Kate.
First off there were the hats and the obsessions with the hats, namely those of Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. They looked rather odd and would quite obviously only be bought by people with particular tastes but still the press felt the need to obsess over the hats. The hats had nothing to do with the wedding! They were just hats!! It's not like the Princesses would feel any more famous or any less famous if the press did not obsess over their hats. (The amount of times I said hats then, the word has lost all meaning to me).
In comparison, it was the obsession of the press and of males everywhere that succeeded in gaining Pippa Middleton fame. I'm not even going to talk about her dress or her body or the effect that it had on her lifestyle because I feel that she doesn't need to be talked up any more. She's already fabulously famous living the scandalous life.
And besides, all I can think about is hats.
