Kate Middleton performs first royal duty with Prince William
Kate Middleton spent Thursday pouring Champagne with Prince William -- the bubbles were to christen a new lifeboat, but the real special occasion was the probable duchess-to-be's first act of royal duty.
The couple attended a dedication ceremony for a new vessel in the Royal Lifeboat Institution fleet in Anglesey, North Wales, where William is stationed as a military pilot and where the two will live after the wedding.
Middleton pleased crowds in a smart brown coat and festive headpiece, while Wills simply beamed.
"The majority of people don't bat an eyelid," a local woman told People magazine of Kate's residence in the town. "She was shopping in Tesco's the other day, and she's been in Waitrose [market], and people don't bother her."
She even got high marks for singing the Welsh national anthem, which translates to "Land of My Fathers."
Are you dazzled by Kate's duty? Tell us in comments.

CONSORT TO BE katherine middleton prepare for her short term royal experience of her future husband birth lifestyle for which will no longer be his ......for duchess and princess titles will not be alloted for her and camilla ..both will only be consort with removal of any royal title terms and benefits....At all time they are acknowleged for being workingclass birth and not monarchy birth , with benefits of no titles and wealth to insure wardrobe and income for being a monarchy birth mate...their mates of royal birth are to be immediately remove before any PR for the family begin with them being the mate of a royal birth monarchy....Katherine middleton will not have rights of royal crown (tiara and royal tiara)she and camilla are never allowed around the family's royal business and will not be provided with rights of royal previlages to seat by the monarchy side.

Katherine an camilla are born of workingclass ,although camilla pr tried to dedefine the truth with lies to insure marriage with charles.IT IS FORBIDDEN TO DO SO .AS WELL TO ELUDE ROYAL CONNECTION TO THE FAMILY ,THAT IS UNTRUTH OF DIRECT BLOODLINE TO THE CROWN.....camilla has none despite her untrues, her decedents never became blood and never gave birth to a monarchy heir for camilla to be related. her uncle by way of a second marriage to camilla grandmother or aunt, makes it never possible for to be crown monarchy because both relatives never gave birth to camilla with the monarchy for her to be related to the crown......

katherine middleton has non to be related to ensure marriage with william .SHE WILL NEVER BEAR A CROWN FOR THE MEDIA AND PBLIC TO CALL HER LADY OR COUNTESS....WHAT WILL BE A AUNT BY MARRIGE EWARD'S CURRENT WIFE WILL NOT ALLOW THEIR CHILDREN MONARCHY TITLES TO KEEP HIS ROYAL LINE...THEY ARE WORKINGCLASS CHILDREN VERY MUCH LIKE MONACO LORD ALBERT OF MONACO......PAST MOANRCHY WHO HAVE MARRIED WORKINGCLASS WILL NOT GIVE THEIR MATES ROYAL TITLES AND PREVILAIGES UPON THEIR CIVIL UNION....THEY BECOME WORKINGCLASS WITH MONARCHY BIRTH BLOOD ...AUTOMATELY LOSING THEIR CROWNS AND ROYAL TITLES....UPON THEIR UNION.......FRANCES ROYAL HEIR WILL BE RETITLED AND PLACE IN RIGHT OF THE MONARCHY.. THE ONLY ROYAL HEIR THAT MARRIED MONARCHY IS CAROLINE OF BELGIUM WHO INSURE WITH THE ROYAL BLOOD BIRTH OF MONARCHY FOR HER CHILDREN WITH HER THIRD HUSBAND AND MONARCHY BEFORE THE QUEEN(ENGLAND) TO CONTROL TO PUT THE CROWN BACK IN ALINEMENT .....CAROLINE MARRIED THIRD HUSBAND PRINCE BELGUIM AND GAVE TWO CHILDREN THAT ENOUGH BLOOD THE MAINTAIN 62% ROYALITY TO HOLD IN BUT NOT SO AFTER HER.......CAROLINE CHILDREN BY SECOND MARRIAGE WOULD NEED TO BE ROYAL FATHER CONCIEVED IN OREDER FOR THEM TO MAINTAIN...NO BASTARDS WILL VERY BE MONARCHY.....

UPON THEIR PREPARING OF A WEDDING THE ROYAL CROWN WILL NOT FINANCE THE WEDDING.. IT WILL COME FROM THE ONCE MONARCHY FOR WHICH THEY ALWAYS HAVE CIVIL CEREMONY WHEN MARRYING WORKINGCLASS.....QUEEN OF ENGLAND FROM HER OWN PRIVATE INCOME HELPS WITH SECURITY NOT THE ENTERNAL WEDDING CEREMONY FINANCIALLY....LIKE WITH CHARLES SECOND MARRIAGE TEA SANDWICH FOR A CIVIL CEREMONY WITH CAMILLA MEANS HIS BASICALLY LOST HIS TITLES FOR HIS WICKED WIFE BY STANDARD OF THE CHURCH AND CROWN....AND THAT HE PAID FOR THE CARRIAGE RIDE AND THE PR ISSUES..THE CHURCH AND WEDDING CLOTHES FOR HIS WORKINGCLASS MATE .HE PAID FOR THE GEUST TO FLY AND THEIR STAY AT A HOTEL......
