Prince William And Kate Middleton

In June 2007, Middleton and Prince William insisted they were "just good friends" following reports of a reconciliation. Middleton and her family attended the Concert for Diana at Wembley Stadium; however, she and William sat two rows apart. The couple were subsequently seen together in public on a number of occasions, and several news sources, including the BBC and the Daily Mail, stated that they had "rekindled their relationship." Middleton also joined William and Charles on a deerstalking expedition at Balmoral and attended the wedding of William's cousin, Peter Phillips, even though William, due to a prior commitment, did not. In April 2008, Middleton accompanied Prince William when he was awarded his RAF wings at the Royal Air Force College Cranwell. On 16 June 2008, Middleton attended William's investiture into the Order of the Garter along with the Royal Family.
Engagement
On 16 November 2010, Clarence House announced that the two are to marry in 2011. The couple became engaged in October 2010 in Kenya, East Africa, during a 10-day trip to the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy to celebrate William's passing his RAF helicopter search and rescue course. The wedding is scheduled for spring or summer of 2011. It is customary for royal men to receive a dukedom when they marry – the suggested dukedoms are the Dukedom of Clarence, Dukedom of Cambridge, Dukedom of Connaught or Dukedom of Sussex; Kendal, Avondale, and Strathearn have all also been mooted. As the wife of a royal duke and prince, Middleton would assume the courtesy title of duchess as well as the style of Her Royal Highness.
