The key to her enduring popularity is, in part, related to what a historic figure she is.
The fact that their romance began at university had some unintended consequences for the couple down the line.
Catherine moved in with the prince in 2010, the year before their wedding.

They lived together at Bodorgan Estate on the Welsh island of Anglesey.
The house was a modest one, by royal standards; there were only four bedrooms.
It seems that the couple enjoyed their time on the island.

They continued living there after their wedding, and it was Prince George’s first home.
When they finally moved away in 2013, Prince William gave a speech praising their home.
However, they reconciled, and in 2010, William proposed to Catherine while on holiday together in Kenya.

They finally married in 2011, a decade after their first encounter.
When Princess Catherine walked down the aisle, she was 29 years old, which made her age history-making.
She was the oldest-ever “spinster” or unmarried woman ever to wed an heir to the throne.

Princess Catherine’s royal record still stands.
As heir to the throne, he would have been expected to wed a member of the British aristocracy.
Instead, he found Catherine, the daughter of a flight attendant and flight dispatcher.

In other words: a commoner.
As a general rule, all royals must ask permission from the reigning royal before marrying.

Her commitment to the sport shows no signs of slowing down.
Later that year, she attended England’s rugby match against Papua New Guinea.
Their historic visit to the coastal area was packed full of activities, according toCornwall Live.

The “Royal Visit is a reflection of the importance the United Kingdom attaches to its relations with Pakistan.

According toVanity Fair, he even called her “Colonel Catherine” during a ceremony passing on the position.
