Kate Middleton

At some point, Kate Middleton and Prince William will likely get married.

Here's to hoping the ceremony takes place in a town hall civil ceremony!

That would show these annoying supermarket tabloids, who continue to cash in on the mere presumptions of what this royal wedding will look like.

In the latest example of anonymous sources citing unspecified facts regarding the couple's plans, OK! Weekly reports that William and Kate will attempt to duplicate the nuptials of the former's late mother, Princess Diana.

"Princess Diana talked about what she wanted her sons’ weddings to be like even when she was pregnant with them," said a source.

Ironically, Princess Diana was also killed because the paparazzi were chasing her limo. So it's nice to see celebrity gossip reporters have learned from their mistakes and are giving William and Kate room to breathe.

Sigh.

Prince William has not officially proposed yet to Kate Middleton.

Still, reports indicate that we may need to prepare ourself for the Wedding of the Century, a title that might be a lot more dramatic if this century weren't just a decade old.

Author Nicholas Davies, who penned William: King for the 21st Century, told Star Magazine this week:

“William has always said he will be ready for marriage after his 28th birthday - that’s next month. The timing is perfect for a wedding this year.”

What might such a ceremony include? Expensive gowns, lavish bouquets and more jewelry than you'd find in the closet of Joan Rivers. It would be highlighted by the 18-karat sapphire and diamond engagement ring William inherited from his late mother, Diana.

Insiders estimate that three billion people would tune in the the wedding. That's almost as many as have purchased the Kendra Wilkinson sex tape.

Their relationship has been as up-and-down as that of Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian.

But Prince William and Kate Middleton got back together last year, and a new report suggests they won't be breaking up ever again.

According to TheDailyBeast.com, the prince will likely propose to his girlfriend this summer.

"A high-placed source in royal circles tells me that two days in June have been mysteriously blocked out on the palace diaries — June 3 and 4," said Tina Brown, who runs The Beast and has written a biography Princess Diana.

Brown adds that a wedding would follow in November, the timing of which makes sense because:

"Philip will be 90 in June 2011, and the Queen celebrates her diamond jubilee — 60 years on the throne — in February 2012. Their closeness to their grandson, especially Philip, makes them eager, I am told, to see William settled in matrimony."

Last summer, other sources echoed this sentiment, stating that William and Kate would be headed down the aisle some time in the next two years. Might that time be near?

If so, expect a wedding that would make Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom's look like a small affair.

Rumors of a royal wedding are intensifying as CBS says it's no longer a question of "if," but "when" Prince William and Kate Middleton will walk down the aisle.

They're both 27, and have been together, "more or less," for eight years.

The latest rumor is that William and Kate have come to an "understanding," if not an engagement. They are headed down the path to marriage - just not now.

That's stating the obvious, according to one source, who says, "Everyone believes Prince William and Kate Middleton will be together, eventually married."

The latest report claims is likely based on plans for the couple to wed before William's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, marks 60 years on the throne in 2012.

That means Prince William and Kate Middleton have just three years to tie the knot - and the clock is ticking: "She has to learn to speak in public," says a royal family observer. "We've never heard Kate Middleton speak, and she's a shy girl."

"She will be having media training."

Another celebrity gossip report in Britain says William will be spending some time with his father, Prince Charles this month, and teasingly asks, "Will they discuss a wedding announcement? Wait and see!" We're totally convinced.

Prince William and Kate Middleton have done their best to keep their relationship quiet.

But that's a challenge when you're British royalty and all.

Therefore, it was major news across the Atlantic over the weekend when witnesses spotted rare moment of public affection between the two as they walked from a post-polo match party near Windsor, England.

"William spent about 40 minutes at the party after his match, and then picked up Kate and they wandered back to the car," a source told People. "He put his left arm around her back and there was plenty of smiling between them."

There was plenty of bodily fluids exchanged between them later, too, we're sure... if you know what we mean!

Kate Middleton? She's Prince William's main squeeze.

Evidently, we're not alone.

A man has been arrested in Great Britain after stolen pictures of Prince William and girlfriend Middleton were offered for sale to a newspaper.

According to Great Britan's The Sun, an individual reported that a camera had been stolen in London late last week. Within an hour, two men using false names contacted the newspaper offering to sell photos of the prince. Geniuses, these were not.

The images in question reportedly included numerous shots of Prince William and Kate Middleton on their recent vacation in the Caribbean last month. The publication – which described a few as "sexy snaps" – delivered the photos and a dossier of information to London's Metropolitan Police.

"A 25-year-old man was arrested ... on suspicion of theft from a motor vehicle and handling stolen goods," a police rep confirmed to People Magazine.

Prince William received his "wings" at England's Royal Air Force graduation ceremony on Friday. And guess who was cheering him on every step of the way?

The Prince's lovely, on-again, off-again, definitely-now-on-again girlfriend Kate Middleton. She's dreamy.

Prince William, who trained for three months, became the fourth successive generation of the monarchy to be an RAF pilot.

"William was very good," his commander told the Associated Press. "I was very impressed by his flying skills. He had a natural handling ability and he was very quick to learn."

Big Will's brother, Prince Harry, who recently returned from military service in Afghanistan, was not at the ceremony; he's still on holiday with girlfriend Chelsy Davy.

Prince William and girlfriend Kate Middleton made it clear last night: they are back together!

The famous British couple got down up on the dance floor at a raucous (and risqué!) charity event in London.

According to People, Middleton kissed her longtime boyfriend as the pair showed off their dance moves as though they were Karina Smirnoff and Mario. The price twirled his gal around as they boogied to Little Richard's "Tutti Frutti" and the Guns N' Roses classic "Welcome to the Jungle."

"They looked happy and so in love," a witness said. "Kate was smiling so widely and they looked like there was no one else in the world when they were dancing."

The pair â€" plus Prince Harry, who's just back from his African holiday with Chelsy Davy â€" were attending an event for The Henry van Straubenzee Memorial Fund. (Henry, a school pal of Harry's, died in a car crash in 2002.)

With all the attention Carla Bruni is receiving these days for possibly becoming the First Lady of France, the likely future Queen of England has gone relatively unnoticed.

But here's a shot of Kate Middleton and her younger sister Pippa.

The pair partie dat the Kitts Club in London last night to celebrate Kate's 26th birthday. Where, we can't help but wonder, is Prince William?

Kate Middleton celebrates her birthday... without Prince William. Is this on-again-off-again couple off again?
