Kiss Me, Kate

‘FOR some, however, even pictures of a couple on holiday together in a romantic Swiss ski resort is not convincing proof of their sexual entanglement.

‘Is that a polo stick you’ve got in your pocket, Wills…?’

Hello!, for instance, insists that Prince William and Kate Middleton are just good friends, despite all evidence to the contrary.

‘Yes, he does share a house with Kate,’ it says, ‘but not a bedroom.

‘It’s also true that, as well as visiting Highgrove and Balmoral, she has joined house parties William has organised at Sandringham, but then so have plenty of other girls.

‘They have a lot in common – both are sporty and love outdoor pursuits like skiing and riding – and in the past have been snapped strolling together down the main street of St Andrews on their way to and from lectures or out shopping in a local supermarket.

‘They were even spotted having supper at the town’s Dolls House restaurant, which is owned by the husband of TV presenter Carol Smillie. So what, their friends say.’

And so what, we say. What indeed does it matter that the restaurant is owned by the husband of TV presenter Carol Smillie?

Friends also point out that, although Kate was among a select group of friends invited to William’s 21st birthday party last summer, it was Jecca Craig who sat beside the Prince.

All well and good, but how do you explain the pictures of the couple on the same ‘T-bar chair lift’, eh?’
