Catherine Elizabeth ("Kate") Middleton,
The marriage of Catherine Middleton and William, Prince of wales
reinforced the links with the Douglas family.
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge (Catherine Elizabeth; née Middleton;
born 9 January 1982), popularly known as "Kate", is the wife of
Prince William, Duke of Cambridge. William is second in line to the
thrones of the sixteen Commonwealth realms, and if he becomes king,
she will become queen consort. Catherine grew up in Chapel Row at
Bucklebury, a village near Newbury, Berkshire, England. She studied
in Scotland at the University of St Andrews, where she met William
in 2001.
Catherine's full title and style is Her Royal
Highness Princess William Arthur Philip Louis, Duchess of Cambridge,
Countess of Strathearn, Baroness Carrickfergus.
She is the eldest of three children born to Carole Elizabeth
Middleton (née Goldsmith), a former flight attendant and now
part-owner of Party Pieces, a private company with an estimated
worth of £30 million, and Michael Francis Middleton, who also worked
as a flight attendant prior to becoming a flight dispatcher for
British Airways, currently also an owner of Party Pieces. Her
parents married on 21 June 1980, at the Parish Church of Dorney,
Buckinghamshire. Catherine has a sister, Philippa Charlotte, known
as "Pippa" (born 1983), and a brother, James Middleton (born 1987).
