Will Kate Middleton be queen?

As a Marlborough College student in 2000, she could hardly have foreseen the effects of her university choice. Kate probably had no idea, as she read the readings for her class, that a run-in with one specific classmate would bring intense scrutiny to every decision she made, from her choice of clothing to the name of a new puppy.

Kate entered the sphere of William Arthur Philip Louis Windsor, the future King when she enrolled in St. Andrews for a degree in the history of art. Kate and the Prince fell in love while living together in a cottage in the Scottish town, starting a relationship that sparked international media interest.

A gentleman’s agreement between newspaper editors and the royal household shielded the pair from tabloid scrutiny while they were attending St Andrews. The slim brunette would have known full well that the bubble of privacy would burst as soon as they graduated, having performed well on both her school and university exams.
After graduating from college, the Prince and his love moved to London where they encountered new difficulties. Kate chose to make her home in the city and accepted a job with High Street clothing retailer Jigsaw as a junior buyer. While she was away, her royal beau immersed himself in the demands of military training.

Will Kate Middleton be queen?

Princess Charlotte is the next member of the royal family who could theoretically succeed to the throne of England. This is so because a monarch must be a member of the family in order to rule as King or Queen. And for this reason, neither Kate Middleton nor Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, will ever be Queen Regnant.
