Why Prince William, Kate Middleton’s Split Was Not ‘Denied’ By Palace

Prince William and Kate Middleton split twice before settling down legally. But during their latest breakup, the palace refused to deny the report.

Even though details about the split were not publicized, the palace confirmed that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have called it quits. The heartbreaking move must have been done because Prince William was no longer seen in public with Middleton for months.

In 2007, The Sun was one of the first publications to report that Prince William and Middleton have reached an amicable agreement to part ways. The Guardian then said that to the surprise of royal commentators, Clarence House did not deny the claims.

But Evening Standard said that Clarence House refused to talk about the couple’s relationship and said that they don’t comment on Prince William’s private life. Years later, the real reason for the couple’s split has been revealed.

In the book “William and Catherine,” royal author Andrew Morton said that the dad of three thought that he could do much better than Middleton that’s why he broke up with her.

“In April, much to Kate’s distress, William ended their relationship. It was a storm that had been brewing a long time, arising from his unwillingness to commit and the feeling his friends noted that he could do better,” he said.

One of Prince William’s friends told Morton that Prince William indeed thought he could find someone much better than Middleton but he soon realized what he had given up.

“William saw pictures of Kate coming out of Boujis or wherever without a care in the world. Quite frankly, he didn’t like the idea of another guy enjoying a roll in the hay with his girl… They had an up and down relationship at St. Andrews because of his refusal to commit,” Prince William’s friend said.

After their short split, the Duke of Cambridge realized what he really wanted in life and that’s to be with Middleton.
