Prince William's on-hold romance

Britain's Prince William has reportedly told girlfriend Kate Middleton he wants to put their relationship on hold while he concentrates on his career.

The future king wants to put all his energy into his military training so has told his lover they will have very little contact over the next 12 months.

A source said: "Kate has been playing second fiddle since the start of the year spending very little time with William. It's almost a case of, 'Don't call me, I'll call you'.

"At the moment the only chance she gets to see him is at weekends when he returns from RAF training.

"William has told her in no uncertain terms he wants to prioritise his duties and throw himself into the role."

Sources claim once William has completed his training he will finally propose to Kate.

However, sources claim she is slightly worried he may be trying to cool the relationship down.

A friend added to Britain's News of the World newspaper: "Kate is prepared to wait for William - there is no question of that. But she's concerned he's trying to loosen the relationship.

"She knows it's a risk but feels she can only accept his 'pact'. Kate loves him and hopes he will finally realise she's the one.

"He wants to excel at his military career but she doesn't want it to be at the expense of their relationship. After all she has put five years hard work into it and taking the pressure that comes with being his girlfriend."

In June, William joins the Royal Navy on a stint which may take him abroad for up to several weeks.

From 2009 he begins intensive training on his royal duties including a stint at the Foreign Office.

Our source said: "William has told Kate if they can survive this long stint apart then he'll propose to her. The pressure will then be on to get married from next year."

Last April, the couple split after four years together but had soon rekindled their romance after realising they couldn't be apart.

I wish the bloody media would leave the two alone. Jees, how would they like it being reported if they so much as fart?

The media are all losers. Take what they say with a grain of salt, or even better, stop buying those smut and tell all mags.

Many women and now men have had to taken second seat to a career in the military and Kate is no different. If the relationship can withstand this brief seperation it can withstand the test of time...Good for you William in stating this. If she (Kate) can't understand that you (William) are trying to make your military career a successful one then she is not the one for you.

No doubt Kate will wait for the rest of her life, even if William picks another woman as his wife, Kate will maintain herself as the other woman.
Kate is absolute new-born Camilla. It's the price for love that comes with lifetime fortunes.

William has proven himself to serve the country and his fellows. Don't worry Will, Kate will wait for you no matter how long, and how you enjoy the other relationships, because you are not only giving her your love, but the lifetime throne and the fortunes.

She's a gold digger.

Make no mistake. She (along with lots of other women) fully understand how 'amazing' Prince William is. I'm surprised he would settle for a posh WAG like her.

Kate, do you dare to give Will ultimatum again, now?

Kate Middleton puts too much pressure on Prince William to marry her. I wonder how she gets away with that! Poor Prince William. It's as if he is tethered to this woman. (I have a feeling too that no matter what -- she would have no problem being his mistress. She seems to have no morals whatsoever!)

Kate is oh soooo very, very spoiled! Must be a nice life. She does NOT have to work, Prince William is her boyfriend, she goes on lots of vacations and lives in a million plus flat in downtown London. I’ll throw up if she becomes a princess.

IT WOULD SEEM SO MUCH TO SPECTULATE ,BUT MY OPINION IS SHE ISN'T THE ONE NOR SHOULD SHE HOPE TO BE MISTRESS. I GET THE FEEL THAT MISS RIGHT FOR WILLIAM WOULD NOT MISS KATE MIDDLETON OUT OF THE BALL PARK AND PLACE THE ROYAL FAMILY BACK ON IT'S FUTURE PATH. MARL THIS DAY DOWN AS I HAVE SAID IN COMMET APRIL 27 ,2008 .
