Of the multiple reasons a woman should never chase after a man, Royal followers believe Kate Middleton is one of them. Catherine, Princess of Wales, has made headlines recently with her blonde transformation, but with her appearance now so intensely in the public eye, many are starting to notice that “she looks awful.” And their criticisms aren’t about her alleged wig or the shade of blonde she’s chosen. It’s about how lifeless and gaunt she’s become compared to before her married life with Prince William.
“[Prince] William, at best, is indifferent to her, and at worst is actively destroying her,” one commenter says, accusing the Prince of Wales of stealing the spark and happiness from his wife. They continue, saying that “the saddest thing about all of this is that no one can really help her. She’s trapped in a system that chews women up and spits them right out.” One person points out how William has proved his love for her was weak years ago, when he broke up with her many times. “And to this day, his behavior is screaming, ‘I just married her cause she was convenient, but I don’t love her like that,‘” the user remarks.
Multiple people accuse Kate Middleton’s parents of being the reason she still chose to pursue a future with William, even though things hadn’t been working out. “Her parents pushed her back into William’s arms, every time they broke up,” explains a commenter. “They are greedy and used Catherine to climb the social ladder.” As a result, Kate’s parents went from being well-off to becoming wealthy, and her social status is why her sister eventually could marry a billionaire. Of course, whether or not Catherine’s decision was worth it is for her to say. However, many oppose her choice with William, now that it has brought her to become the “very sad” Kate Middleton of the present day.

“They say when you marry for money that you will spend the rest of your life paying for it,” comments a Reddit user. Another suspects that Prince William controls her financially, meaning that, even with all the money in the world, the wealth she earned from this marriage is not hers to have. There is the huge advantage of becoming Queen, but some fans doubt she’ll even make it at the rate she’s declining.
Ultimately, there’s very little Kate Middleton can do about her situation, as she’s been locked into place as the future King Prince William’s Queen in every aspect of her life. Whether she is satisfied with how things are going is her own business. However, how she’s turned out now has become a message to all women: that “We should never chase a man or love a man to the point of losing ourselves, and losing our health and life.”
