James Middleton Discusses Kate & William

James Middleton realized early on that Prince William was an ideal partner for his sister Kate.

In his book, Meet Ella: The Dog Who Saved My Life, James reminisces about how Kate "blossomed" after getting engaged to William. He shares that their family got the news a bit before it became public. James, along with Pippa and Kate, was at a pub near Bucklebury when they heard the announcement.

James remembers them sitting quietly in a corner while Kate whispered the news, hinting it was about to go public soon. Although excited, Pippa and he had to hide their emotions so no one would catch on. They promised each other they’d always have each other’s backs, no matter what crazy things happened next.

William and Kate dated for almost a decade before their engagement, during which time William grew close to James’s family. For James, William felt like an older brother who fit perfectly with his sister. They seemed made for each other.

We often hope to find love just as strong as what we see in others.

James thought about how lucky William was to marry someone as capable and grounded as his sister. He felt comforted knowing they were truly in love.
