Prince William puts relationship with Kate Middleton “on hold”

Prince William has reportedly made up his mind about what to do regarding his relationship with Kate Middleton: he’s putting their love on hold while he finishes up his military training.

According to the News of the World, William wants to concentrate on his training before taking up full time royal duties next year - and if their relationship lasts, he’ll marry her then.

A royal source told the newspaper: “Kate has been playing second fiddle since the start of the year spending very little time with William. It’s almost a case of, ‘Don’t call me, I’ll call you’.”

“[But now] William has told her in no uncertain terms he wants to prioritise his duties and throw himself into the role.”

“Kate is prepared to wait for William - there is no question of that. But she’s concerned he’s trying to [dissolve] the relationship.”

“She knows it’s a risk but feels she can only accept his [decision]. Kate loves him and hopes he will finally realise she’s the one.”

“He wants to excel at his military career but she doesn’t want it to be at the expense of their relationship. After all she has put five years hard work into it and taking the pressure that comes with being his girlfriend.”

“William has told Kate if they can survive this long stint apart then he’ll propose to her. The pressure will then be on to get married from next year.”
