Starting her life in the spotlight as a preppy student, her look quickly evolved as her status soared and the ‘Kate effect’ became quickly apparent; who could forget the royal blue Issa dress she wore to announce her engagement, that subsequently sold out within hours, or the flurry of Reiss dresses that kept sparking sales surges?

Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge (Catherine Elizabeth “Kate”; née Middleton) born 9 January 1982 and she is the most brilliant future Queen of England.

The Duchess grew up in Chapel Row, a village near Newbury, Berkshire, England. She studied art history in Scotland at the University of St Andrews, where she met William in 2001. Their engagement was announced on 16 November 2010 before they married on 29 April 2011 at Westminster Abbey.

Catherine Elizabeth Middleton was born at Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading on 9 January 1982 to an upper-middle-class family. She was christened at St Andrew’s Bradfield, Berkshire, on 20 June 1982.

She is the eldest of three children born to Michael Middleton and his wife, Carole (née Goldsmith), a former flight dispatcher and flight attendant, respectively, who in 1987 founded Party Pieces, a mail order private company that sells party supplies and decorations with an estimated worth of £30 million.

The family of her father Michael has ties to British aristocracy and benefitted financially from trust funds which they had established over 100 years ago.

Her Middleton relatives were reported as having played host to British royalty “as long ago as 1926”.  She has a younger sister, Philippa “Pippa”, and a younger brother, James.

She loves Alexander McQueen… and this Champagne lace dress is one of Her Best…!

Michael Middleton worked for British Airways (BA), in Amman, Jordan, from May 1984 to September 1986. In Jordan, Catherine Middleton went to an English-language nursery school before returning to their home in Berkshire.

Following her return from Amman in 1986, Middleton was enrolled at the age of four at St Andrew’s School, a private school near the village of Pangbourne in Berkshire. She boarded part-weekly at St Andrew’s in her later years.  She then studied briefly at Downe House .

She was a boarder at Marlborough College, a co-educational independent boarding school in Wiltshire,  and graduated in 2005 from the University of St Andrews in Fife, Scotland, with an undergraduate MA (2:1 Hons) in the history of art.

In November 2006, Middleton accepted a position as an accessory buyer with the clothing chain Jigsaw,  where she worked part-time until November 2007.

She also worked until January 2011 at Party Pieces; her role within the family business included catalogue design and production, marketing and photography.

The couple began dating in 2003, although their relationship remained unconfirmed. On 17 October 2005, Middleton complained through her lawyer about harassment from the media, stating that she had done nothing significant to warrant publicity.

In April 2007, Prince William and Middleton split up. The couple decided to break up during a holiday in the Swiss resort of Zermatt. Newspapers speculated about the reasons for the split, although these reports relied on anonymous sources.

Prince William and Catherine Middleton became engaged in October 2010, in Kenya, during a 10-day trip to the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy to celebrate Prince William’s passing his RAF helicopter search and rescue course.

Clarence House announced the engagement on 16 November 2010.  Prince William gave Middleton the engagement ring that had belonged to his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.

The couple married in Westminster Abbey on 29 April 2011 (St. Catherine’s Day), with the day declared a bank holiday in the United Kingdom. Estimates of the global audience for the wedding ranged around 300 million or more, whilst 26 million watched the event live in Britain alone.

On 3 December 2012, St James’s Palace announced that the Duchess was pregnant with her first child.

The Duchess was admitted to St Mary’s Hospital in London in the early stages of labour on the morning of 22 July 2013 and gave birth to a son later that day. On 24 July 2013, Kensington Palace announced the baby’s name as George Alexander Louis.

The Duchess’s second pregnancy was announced on 8 September 2014. On 2 May 2015, the Duchess gave birth to a daughter. The baby’s name was announced on 4 May 2015 as Charlotte Elizabeth Diana.

In March 2011, the Duke and Duchess set up a gift fund held by The Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry to allow well-wishers who want to give them a wedding gift to donate money to charities they care about instead.

The gift fund supported 26 charities of the couple’s choice, incorporating the armed forces, children, the elderly, art, sport and conservation. These causes are close to their hearts and reflect the experiences, passions and values of their lives so far.

The Duchess has a number of patronages: The Art Room, National Portrait Gallery, East Anglia’s Children’s Hospice, Action on Addiction, Place2Be, Natural History Museum, Anna Freud Centre, Sportsaid, and The 1851 Trust. The Duchess is joint Patron of 100 Women in Hedge Fund’s Philanthropic Initiatives, along with Prince William and Prince Harry.

Her perceived impact on British and American fashion has been called the “Kate Middleton effect” in the media,  and in 2012 and 2013, She was selected as one of the “100 Most Influential People in the World” by Time magazine.
