While the world waits to learn if Kate Middleton will indeed be Britain’s future queen, one Daily Mail columnist thinks he’s found the perfect job to keep her both occupied and close to the royal fold.
Ephraim Hardcastle writes, “Buckingham Palace is advertising for a Head of Education for the Royal Collection. Applicants to the £40,000 nine-month posting should be ‘educated to MA standard (or equivalent) in Art History, Fine Art or a related field.’”
He adds, “A perfect berth, surely, for Prince William’s notoriously workshy bride in waiting (and art history graduate) waity Katie Middleton?”
Hardcastle is right that Kate meets the criteria — she has a Scottish master’s degree in art history from the University of St. Andrews — but his “workshy” jab seems off the mark. Kate works for her parents at their mail-order company, Party Pieces, compiling catalogues and photographing products. She was also photographed last summer sorting stock outside the Party Pieces offices in Berkshire (pictured above).
