Kate Middleton beams as she celebrates wedding anniversary on special trip with William

The Prince and Princess of Wales are celebrating their wedding anniversary today by kicking off a two-day visit to the Isle of Mull. The couple arrived on the island this afternoon and waved to the huge crowds that had gathered to catch a glimpse of them. Tonight, the pair will be spending the big day by staying in self-catering cottage on the Scottish island.

It is likely they will enjoy a romantic meal for two during their night on Mull after a day of official engagements. But it remains to be seen who will be doing the cooking at their undisclosed cottage. The Isle of Mull is part of lands once ruled by the Lord of the Isles, one of a number of Scottish titles William inherited from his father when Charles became King and William the heir to the throne.

When in Scotland William and Kate are officially known by their Scottish titles, the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay, and they are beginning their visit today in the town of Tobermory, where the popular BBC children’s TV series Balamory was filmed.

The couple will visit a local hall that serves as a community hub and tour the Tobermory Producers Market, co-ordinated by the hall at Tobermory Harbour, sampling produce and meeting the makers and creators. They will also visit a croft and restaurant on the West Coast, meeting the Hebridean sheep farmed on the 50-acre site and helping select garden produce for the menu.

Tomorrow, William and Kate will meet countryside rangers from the Mull and Iona Ranger Service at the Ardura Community Forest, join a school group as they take part in outdoor learning, and meet Ardura Acorns, an early years outdoor learning playgroup that includes nature trails, den-building and animal tracking. The visit aims to highlight the importance of protecting and championing the natural environment.

William and Kate met at the University of St Andrews in Fife and became friends first before embarking on a romance. Two years after their wedding the couple had their first child, Prince George, then Princess Charlotte in 2015 and Prince Louis in 2018, and it appears their relationship remains strong after Kate’s cancer treatment.

The couple’s anniversary comes after what William described as a ‘ brutal ‘ year last year following Kate’s cancer diagnosis and subsquent chemotherapy treatment. In January, the princess revealed she is now in remission. Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond delved inside their marriage to work out exactly what it is that makes their union a special one. And she revealeds exactly what has allowed them to navigate stormy waters – and now appear to be even stronger than ever.

She explains: “Their first anniversary after Catherine’s official remission has to be that extra bit special. Every milestone takes them that little bit further away from the dreadful day when she was diagnosed with cancer. After his mother died, William said he knew it would make or break him and he refused to let it break him.

They both have a similar mindset to how to handle the harsh year they have just come through, I believe. Their union is even more powerful than it was before, and it is already a smashing success. They seem to get along well. a lot . And that’s completely different from loving one another, which they also do, by the way. a lot .

What causes it to function? I believe their partnership is fairly equal. Williams is a father who teaches children much more than his grandfather or father. And Catherine, in my opinion, won’t let him get away with anything less.

They work together as a team, and they are able to communicate with one another with just a look or a gesture. Sometimes they appear to be nipping at one another or making them smile.

“I do believe that Catherine’s parents and the King must be relieved that their union turned out so well.” The monarchy’s success is important, but knowing that William and Catherine are such a capable force and seem to be able to handle pretty much anything life throws at them is comforting on a human level for the Middletons and the King.

He said in a joking comment on Suddenly Single: “I went and saw her and I said, “I must be quite lonely being here, let’s go and have dinner one night,” and she agreed. So we all went out for a lovely, friendly dinner two nights later.

She said no, let’s go, but I told her, “I can see some paps outside, so we shouldn’t go out right now.” So we left, got in a car, and drove home, and she gave me a cheeky kiss.

“That was it,” he said. Simply put, it was a wonderful evening. Nothing ever happened, aside from the way they had planned, so we all went back to work a few weeks later.

He continued, “My manager called me and said, “Have you seen the papers? ” ‘. Toby will you come over, was a popular ad on American chat shows. No! ‘. The most amazing experience was listening to Priscilla and her discuss Elvis and their lives in Graceland. I had a little out of body experience.

She’s talking about The King, and I’m with Priscilla. She’s a charming, lovely woman, and I consider myself lucky to have met her.

Speaking about her in 2013, Toby admitted he ‘fancied the pants off her’, revealing he thought she was ‘beautiful’. He went on to praise the star, adding she looked ‘exquisite’, ‘spoke with such poise’ and has ‘so much charisma’.

He acknowledged that they had two more parties to “dance the entire night” while she was in London at the time.

She said, “We were out until about 3.30 am, and she was worried about going to a show the following day.” Even so, we continued to make tequila shots after midnight. It was fantastic.

She mentioned to me that she would like to visit Graceland and that she would be illogical to do that.

Republic of Ireland defender Quinn retires

Inpho

Louise Quinn, the player who defends the Republic of Ireland, has made the decision to leave.

The 34-year-old won 121 international caps for her debut against Poland in a friendly in February 2008.

Quinn played every second of her country’s historic opening match against the 2023 Women’s World Cup, scoring 16 senior international goals, including 15 headers.

Her professional career included stints with Notts County, Arsenal, Birmingham City, Notts County, Birmingham City, and Fiorentina in Italy.

The county Wicklow native won the FA Women’s League Cup and the Women’s Super League while playing for Arsenal.

She hasn’t played since suffering a hip injury in October, but she is currently listed on Birmingham’s books.

The World Cup demonstrated that dreams can be fulfilled.

They are the most difficult words to find when writing your retirement statement, Quinn said on Tuesday.

“But I need to hang up my boots,” she said. There are many reasons to question why or why not, but it’s just one of those things, you’d think.

She continued, stating that her desire to play the game was to represent her country.

I’ve always wanted to play this game because of the Ireland team. The green jersey has been a significant part of my life.

“It’s been a part of something very special. Before me, legends of the women’s team laid the foundations, and for a short while I had the opportunity to play alongside some of them.
