She is the basis of what photographers call the “Middletonmania” phenomenon, the eerie similarity to how paparazzi hounded the late Princess Diana. That this girl from the nowhere village of Bucklebury in Berkshire could be the center of so much press coverage is due primarily to the fact that she is possibly destined to be the next Queen of England.
Vicky Ward of the Vanity Fair thinks Kate Middleton has the poise and grit to overcome intrigues and controversies and make it to the English throne. This grandchild of a store-clerk and a builder has a fascinating personality belying her commoner status and, perhaps, fit for queen ship. Prince William seems to think so, as he remains by her side from their college days' friendship, to a top-secret relationship, and now to tabloid material. Throughout all this, Ward says Middleton is poised, cool and in control. Despite their 2007 sojourn to splitsville, she was shrewd as to manipulate the situation to be a temporary one, “She knew that by giving him time and space she could probably get him back, and she did so by being very clever, stepping out at his favorite clubs, looking glamorous and fabulous,” a gossip columnist says.
