Kate Middleton: Expert on ‘modification’ to royal upbringing

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were wedded with around 1,900 people attending the Westminster Abbey ceremony. Marcia Moody wrote in her 2013 biography about Kate that William greeted her and her father Michael Middleton on their wedding day, and cracked a joke about the scale of the day.

Michael walked Kate down the Westminster aisle to be wedded, with William having a laugh about the size of the crowd.

He said to the Middleton’s: “Just a quiet family wedding, then.”

Michael cracked back he was not nervous, but told William days after “it felt like a dream”.

Ms Moody also wrote that William said to his bride “you look beautiful” when they looked eyes.

The biographer also wrote that nerves were high on the day of the wedding, despite William’s joke.

William is believed to have said to the Bishop ahead of Kate’s arrival: “Make sure everything’s alright. It’s beautiful the way it is.”

The Duke also was shocked by the size of the crowd, and said: “It’s mad, it’s mad!”

Prince Harry served as William’s best man, with the Cambridge royal telling his brother: “All I have to do is get my lines right.”

William also recalled he barely slept the night before his wedding to Kate because of cheering crowds.

He said: “The crowds were singing and cheering all night long, so the excitement of that, the nervousness of me and everyone singing – I slept for about half an hour.”

He also told the BBC “the whole thing” made him nervous and gave him sleepless nights.

He said: “I was telling everyone when I did the rehearsals the other day and my knees started going, tapping quite nervously.

“So it’s quite a daunting prospect but very exciting, and I’m thoroughly looking forward to it. But there’s still a lot of planning to be done in the last four weeks.”
