Kate Finally Meets The Queen At A Wedding
It was at the wedding of Peter and Autumn Phillips that Kate finally had the chance to meet the Queen. Peter Philipps is the eldest son of Princess Anne, the Queen’s daughter. Every member of the Royal Family was obviously invited, and an invitation was even sent over to Kate.
She moved to Wales in 2010 to be closer to William while he was training as a pilot in the Royal Air Force. It was soon after this that the couple officially announced their engagement. However, it did take Prince William quite a while before he asked the question.
William Asks Kate To Be His Wife
It was clear that the two were genuinely in love. During a safari trip in Kenya, William asked Kate to marry him with a beautiful ring. It was a memento from Princess Diana. The ring was made of sapphire and diamond. On top of that, it was to be given to the next Queen Consort.
Kate and William were both 28 years old and it was high time for the two of them to get serious about their future together. There was nothing stopping Prince William from asking Kate to marry him.
