I have had the abdominal surgery, told everything was ok, only to get the call that the Drs. wanted to meet with me! After testing further, cancer cells were found, so preventive chemo was recommended! I had to fully recover from my surgery, which was about eight weeks, then the chemo started! I thought it would be easy since it was just preventative! I was wrong! It was one of the strongest they give, they want to make sure that they get any stray cells they might have missed! I was hospitalized twice after my chemo it was so bad! My treatment was a nine month course! You take a treatment, feel bad, get to feeling better, then its time for another!! That was almost seven years ago! I go every six months for scans, but I fee l great and am back to my old self! Princess Catherine is indeed a very brave and wonderful woman, and people need to know it takes time for your body, your mind, and your spiritual being being to get back what you've had to fight so hard to keep!
Thank you for sharing your brave course to recovery. I am a two time cancer survivor. Continued healing wishes to you and prayers for full health. Blessings!
The truth is, his many classes with the late Queen and Prince Philip show. He is a quality man who knows a quality woman when he meets one. They are the best role model for marriage for their children. Catherine, James & Pippa come from just that kind of strength, compassion and protectiveness. Likewise Harry met his own emotional, immature twin in Rachel, they deserve one another.
@@dtulip1 I think the reason she can see herself as support is because she is so secure and grounded in who she is as person. Megs never had that, nor never will.
Princess Catherine listened to all who were there to help. She especially watched and listened to QEII. In addition, she is a genuinely personable and compassionate lady!
She just seems..............real. I don't have another word to use, I guess, lol . She just seems like you want to be friends with her, and radiates such kindness and joy. She truly is a "unique".
Princess Catherine understands the organizations because she assembles experts to help her and she LISTENS to them. She does not pretend to know everything. She and Prince William are making a real impact to their society. I admire them so much!
Catherine is a true princess and it has nothing to do with titles. This was a beautiful tribute to her and clearly states why she is so loved and valued.
Thank-you each and every one of you for the well wishes! I don't know what the Princess of Wales has or her treatment, but I feel it probably isn't far off from what is going on with me.I know her Highness is getting the best care and will be back when shes ready marvelling us with her grace, style and humanity. I am going through chemo right now myself for ovarian cancer. That she even showed for Trooping the Colour was a minor miracle, please let this woman rest so she can come back stronger than ever.
Been there, and am sending you all good wishes. You'll already know it is a horrible slog on the bad days, but keep going, there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Exactly. The Princess of Wales does not have to TELL us she's a role model, unlike the insufferable yacht girl constantly babbling about herself and doing nothing except mischief.
Never seeking attention or expects it by her actions words or deeds. Never takes anyone or anything for granted. Well grounded. Entered the RF humble and taking time to grow with their support whilst respecting other members knowledge and experience. How can anyone not love Catherine, The a Princess of Wales 😊
For me, one of the biggest things about the way Catherine approached joining the royal family was intelligence. From day one, she understood she was entering a situation unlike any other and fully appreciated that other women such as Sophie had trodden the path before her, so she listened and took advice. The late Queen was apparently also a great mentor to Catherine and her influence is plainly visible. Catherine doesn't slavishly copy the Queen, but it's obvious she absorbed all the knowledge which was being offered to her. (For some character insight, let me recommend the podcast "The Good, The Bad & The Rugby". Hosted by Mike Tindall, this episode features Catherine, William and the Princess Royal. Even for people who don't like rugby, it's a hoot! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zG3i9UX14Bk.html )
You nailed it, Beebs. We saw Prince William fall for her, and then we fell in love with many of the same qualities. The head-back, full throated laugh and silly faces, the enthusiasm, the way she gets down at eye level with children and makes them comfortable. She is a beautiful woman who has never skated by on her looks but brings so much more to the table. She is a confident co-parent with her husband and clearly gives that family top priority in her life. We have missed her presence enormously over the last six months. I hope that she is aware of that and that it gives her strength to continue healing. ❤
@RenataKleinRK They were in a relationship for many years, yes. That does not mean he was stringing her along or that it was even his choice, let alone only his choice. They were both very aware of exactly what would be expected of her in joining the royal family and they took the time to be sure she was able to withstand it and ready to take that step. She's a naturally private person; it must have been very difficult to knowingly step into a fishbowl.
The only thing Prince William has ever said was “ I put my arms around my brother all our lives, I just cannot do it anymore “ Prince William….the prince of Wales…
Catherine has earned her popularity by her devotion to her monarch and her country. She was hounded by the media because she and William took their time before getting engaged. She was rewarded by being dubbed waity Katie. Yet she didn't whine about it. She carried herself with dignity. She still does. She understands the huge responsibility she has in raising a future king, while supporting her husband's future as king. Prayers coming her way for a full recovery.
I love that Princess Catherine is soft spoken🌹you can just tell that she’s a wonderful woman.👸 It is a blessing that she married Prince William, they are the perfect couple.❤️❤️
@@JK-sh8rc he took his time and chose well. His idiot brother partied and raged until it was getting a bit late to find someone, then he desperately wanted a Catherine too (what William has, Harry wants!) And along came the spider, with her Web, and Harry rushed into the biggest disaster he's ever made!!!
@RenataKleinRK For me, it shows self-confidence; she knows she doesn't have to raise her voice or make demands to be heard by the people that matter. It shows self-control; she doesn't scream and shout to get her way and it's willing to listen and cooperate. It shows class, for the same reasons. It's also not as grating to the ears.
In terms of authenticity, Catherine absolutely started as she meant to go on. About a month after their wedding, imagine my surprise at passing Catherine in the aisle of a local supermarket. I was visiting my mother in my home county of Anglesey at the time, where William was based during his RAF career.
She was well schooled by the Queen but I am sure Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip saw the true goodness of Catherine. It comes from within being raised in a happy stable family but also because she is her honest self. She is not playing a part on stage. She understands duty and enjoys celebrating people who are working so hard to make our world a better place. There are many stable and lovely women in this world but the noisy ones tend to get spotlighted.
Never been this early before. The Princess of Wales is very hands on. I love her competition with William in a sporting way. She married into the family definitely as a freshman. Through her voyage to graduation she has grown confidence. Catherine has learned from The late Queen and the late Prince Philip. From the late Queen she learned about how to be a Queen. Prince Philip showed Catherine how to be loyal and supportive. Unlike she who must not be named, she knows that William is number one in importance. Catherine does not care that she is number two. They are a partnership. They support each other equally. God Bless Catherine. ❤
Prince Wm never procedes as if she is Number Two though; he's happy to let Princess Catherine shine at night time events & she stays side by with him on Royal Duties - she's just very aware of protocol & it has become second nature (& who with a husband doesn't almost imperceptibly let him shake hands with the man of the couple you meet or whatever. It isn't subservience it's just standard in couples - Royal Protocol is similar to that. The person that shall not be named just elbows everybody including H out of the way - & in Fiji & Morocco it was just awful awful - it's embarrassing watching her smash into everybody bc she Must be the First Person no matter what! Nobody does that!🙏🏻🇬🇧
Beebs, princess Catherine smiles is from within. Just beautiful! Beautiful young woman, excellent wife, mother, daughter, sister, overall a decent human being. She's a true sophisticated lady!
Great analysis,Beebs!! Catherine is a philanthropist who is deeply invested in her projects. Her Hold Still project during Covid pandemic, the Christmas eve concert, and Early years programs all show that she is not just a beautiful woman who shows up for photo shoots. William chose a brilliant life partner and future Queen in Catherine. Praying for her full recovery and return to public duties when she’s ready ❤❤
We all love Catherine because she doesn't shout about how great she is and why we must like her, she's discreet and follows the less is more maxim whilst at the same time working really hard on the projects she involves herself in. Great upload Beebs.
Beebs, this video is thoughtful, well organized, and beautifully written with awesomely sourced images of our CATHERINE PRINCESS OF WALES. Thank you for sharing this with all of us!!!
For those that don't know, our lovely Catherine was hounded by the press for almost a decade when she and William were dating. By hounded I mean 15-20 paps encamped outside her London home. Uk tv even showed footage of her begging to be left alone. Not once did she give an interview, not once did she complain. She was hospitalised during her pregnancies, again she never complained and never went to the press. She is the epitome of integrity and discretion.
Canadian here. I remember the press being jerks with headlines calling her "Waity Katie." I remember thinking, "if they're meant to be, and they do love each other for marriage and partnership, OF COURSE she's going to put the time in to be sure about this life path! It's a HUGE change and responsibility. There was never a need to rush things.
And she doesn't say Me, or, I ,me, myself, I, mememe, ect. And she is intelligent. Honest, strong. Likes to have a good laugh! Not pushy, or rude, or condescending, Snotty .
No feud between the brothers. Its a one sided bashing of William by Harry. Catherine has become a role model by just being her authentic self. Her positive core values are all good. Good analysis Beebs.❤
Good video. I think it must be incredibly hard for a modern woman - not born into royalty, or even aristocracy - to marry into the royal family, with its patriarchal traditions and restrictions. Women like Catherine are very rare, and we’re so lucky to have her. I hope it won’t be long before she has a clean bill of health.
hi, were you born in 1952 … me too and there was always a portrait of our late Queen in every classroom and the anthem was played at the picture theatre , and we all stood .. we have been so lucky “knowing “ Queen Elizabeth for all our lives.
The Princess of Wales is amazingly beautiful. Who ever her stylist is, they deserve an Oscar. She looks incredibly smart regardless of the occasion, casual, smart or high Royal event.
I really think Meghan Markle’s biggest downfall was trying to vilify Catherine. Catherine is so easygoing and genuine that Meghan’s account of her being a stuck up racist behind the scenes was completely unbelievable. It only highlighted Meghan’s agenda and showed her up as the true villain.
It is amazing to me that they went from a wonderful life to a life that has to exist parallel to horrible Megan and Harry. What a shame. No one should have to be subjected to her jealousy and narcissism. So sad.
Another aspect of why she is so likeable is that she doesn't seek the spotlight. She's there for the charity not the camera clicks, not just to have her picture in the media. Like Queen Elizabeth II, KIng George VI, King George V, and Queen Victoria, Prince William chose well with Catherine as spouse, support, and future Queen.
Princess Catherine's a wonderful example to all the people in her country and around the world. She is a huge asset to her country and her family. It seems her family loves and is very proud of her.
I heard Catherine's voice a while back, giving a speech and thought, "I've never heard her talk before." I figured I was just not paying attention. Then I heard she has literally never given an interview, rarely gives a speech. That's discretion.
What I find most fascinating about Catherine is she doesn't seem to have any skeletons in her closet. Nobody's come out to say they were bullied by her, no ex-boyfriends or friends have revealed secrets about her for their fifteen minutes of fame. She had no idea she was one day going to be Queen Catherine, yet she still had the good sense to surround herself with good honest people. This also means she's never had to lie or be sneaky about anything which bolsters the people's trust in her. When the Who Made Who Cry drama came out before the wedding, I had no doubt in my mind that Meghan was the one lying because Catherine isn't the type of person who just goes around making people cry for no reason so Meghan must've done something really egregious or it was the other way around (which turned out to be the case.) Meghan hadn't laid the groundwork to be believed like Catherine has over the many years we've known her.
The only thing I've ever heard about Catherine's past, was that SHE was actually bullied at school. No further details, but none are needed. She likely had the measure of Meghan immediately.
When the who made who cry thing happened I thought it's probably a stressful situation for everyone they probably both cried but I quickly stopped thinking that the one who shouldn't be named made princess catherine cry
@@flyonthewall8122 the fact that she was bullied makes her more relatable and endearing. She's much more sympathetic and I think it adds to her mental health causes that she has a little bit of experience in that regard.
The public needs to allow her to heal. Dear gussy. Can you imagine anyone else (not in the public eye) who's expected to perform like the Princess of Wales? Sending love.
Thank goodness she is in the RF and can take time "off" to heal. I think of those less fortunate who need to work for $ income and feel so badly for them, wonder how they can do it. Blessings and love to all.
Her dignity and respectful ways make her such a big role model. She doesn't demand walking first, greeting people first or demands to speak first and last. She listens more than she speaks and gives honest eye contact. Like someone else always stubbornly does to nausea.. Princess Catherine, the great!
Catherine has taken her time and learned from The Queen about how to tackle public life and duty. She didn't rush on and try to take over. The Queen gave William and Catherine something she missed out on because she became The Queen at such a young age. She gave them time to nurture and raise their family and be hands-on parents. That is invaluable and is so obvious when you see The Wale's children. They are such happy, well-adjusted children. I agree with everything you said Beebs. Catherine is a class act and such a beautiful woman inside and out.
"She hasn't told us she's a role model, she just is ". Beautifully expressed Beebs. Thank you for another thoughtful and well researched presentation. You're very good at this !
She is a real model for families who in the world is so very little love in the homes and family times! She is genuinely a good wife,mother,daughter,daughter in law,sister and she really cares for people and children ❤❤❤God bless her and give her a total recovery ❤❤❤
Thank you again, dear Beebs, for a lovely summary of Catherine’s caring personality and fine character. She doesn’t have to hire PR consultants to show us who she is. It shines through her every day in her roles of wife, mother, daughter, daughter-in-law, sister and future queen. It shows through her kindness; it shows by her faithfulness and steadfast nature, and it shows by the personal integrity she demonstrates every day.
I couldn't agree more. Catherine, the Princess of Wales, is a wonderful role model. I just love her. The causes she supports, especially the early years project, are things that I have an interest in as well, and she does a great job. It was great seeing her at Trooping the Colour, and I do wish her all the best for her recovery.
Catherine is dignified and regal. She never bolts ahead of William at official engagements or shoves him around like he’s a kid. Yet she shines and still holds one’s attention without trying to.
Actions speak louder than words. Princess Catherine is magnificent as a role model, a mother, a spouse and as the future Queen. She is dignified, graceful and kind.
Hi Beebs ❤I always look forward to hearing from you. Princess Catherine is a such a beautiful role model as a woman, wife, mother, friend and relative to say the least. Princess Catherine’s actions show the love that she has for others. She doesn’t need to tell us, she just does it. I could go on and on. Just like you with your articulate reporting, Princess Catherine did her due diligence to learn what her role would entail. Obviously she loves Prince William so much that she has sacrificed her private life to be by his side. I’m sure the queen absolutely loved her and was so glad that she didn’t have to worry about William. Princess Catherine was willing to love all those that William does, unlike her awful, crass, classless, spiteful, malicious, vindictive etc, etc, nemesis who is finally being exposed. Thank you Beebs ❤
Another thoughtful analysis, I agree Catherine, Princess of Wales, has wisely allowed herself time to grow into the role and this has served her well. She comes over a compassionate, kind, intelligent, talented in sports and the arts. It certain seems her external beauty is a reflection of her internal qualities, I love to see images of her laughing as she genuinely seems to be enjoying herself!
Thank you, Beebs, for a MUCH more accurate definition of 'privacy'. The definition used by the harkles is the absolute opposite. This video was very comforting and encouraging.
Very well spoken, thoughtful and gracious. I’m talking about you, Beebs! You’re all of those things. This was an excellent video highlighting everything we know & love about Catherine, Princess of Wales. She truly is someone we could all learn from and a lovely role model inside & out! 💕 Jessica
She chose, also, to step into this role. She understands the devotion to duty, which is part of being William's wife. She is inspiring, admirable, and worthy of respect for being Catherine.
What a lovely video. Such a beautiful lady who clearly takes her life of service very seriously but with a sense of fun. I do hope her health continues to improve.
Catherine and William have grown up together, from teenagers at university, to the mature adults that we see today. I love seeing photos of them when they were younger, clubbing and having fun, then falling into taxis at the end of a night out, absolutely sozzled.
Beautifully written delivered and the eye candy of seeing so many gorgeous pictures of Princess Catherine Thanks Beebs … you definitely are a positive influencer 🙏❤️✅🇨🇦
