It is really a huge pity, that Kate and the team used the sudden media attention and popularity for themselves only. You usually have to read the article to the very end (and who does that?) to find out that it is indeed a charity event for SIDS and a childrens hospice. Too bad that Kate didn't use this to show her new Grandma Queen that she indeed fits into this royal role by bringing the media attention to this charity event instead of an "elite group of female athletes talented in many ways, toned to perfection, with killer looks."which seems to be Kate second and last interest next to hunting down a prince...

Is anyone actually surprised about this? I'm not. As I said in an earlier post, I'll be surprised if the team and their boat make it to France.

The problem for Kate is that she is a celebrity without a portfolio. It is all very well to be posing on boats and tumbling into and out of night clubs, but what is it all for?

I guess they thought they had better chances of gaining the permission for such a stunt, if they had Britains new sweetheart on board and they would probably go in into history having crossed the channel with the Queen of Great-Britain on board (preferable naked in a layer of paint... or maybe the Union Jack drapped strategically around  ) RULE BRITANNIA< BRITANNIA RULE THE WAVES |

Nor would I, if the water is past my waist I panic  if by some chance I had to choose I think I would go with boat no matter how small and try and have it filled with warm blankets and at least one person with more water experience than me.  |

 Well one thing for sure Kate got all the media attention. As far as acting like a Princess -- ridiculous. Kate is actually more manipulative and more narcissistic than CP Mary (and thats saying something)

The german television brought a little note about Kate today (they have a little "boulevard" before the news, which I quite fancy) they said it was the queen who insisted on ending kates boating aspirations. The palace, it was said, resented the media attention. They even mentioned the plans for Kates nude calender girl stint. Hehehe, bet there is a whole list of things that displease the queen and the first thing she truely would love to end is the whole relationship  |

She simply cannot approve of her. However if the palace starts dictating her steps, she is in the company to some extent. Otherwise they would ignore her simply.
So lets hope that the "ordered by the queen' is an adornment that the press put over this topic and nothing that QEII spend even a second on...
