Darlings, Lady Jane here, diving right into the bubbling teapot that is Catherine, the Princess of Wales, and her whirlwind of a summer. Oh, if you blinked, you might have missed it—Kate has simply leapt from royal engagements right into the sparkling world of art curation! Yes, Kensington Palace just confirmed that Catherine has officially donned the curator's cap for the V&A East Storehouse in East London. And how fitting—after all, our darling Kate did study Art History at the University of St. Andrews before Prince William swept her off her feet. It’s a romantic return to her first passion, and honestly, who among us doesn’t secretly carry a torch for an old flame? In Kate’s case, that flame is art, darling.

She’s lent her expert eye to a display titled Makers and Creators—a delectable little curation of treasures spanning ballet costumes, a Beatrix Potter watercolor (is there anything more quintessentially British?), and even a hand-quilted bedcover from 1830s Wales. J.H. Dearle’s Morris & Co screen also made the cut. Kate herself penned the text for the display, noting how these objects stitch together stories from our past while inspiring tomorrow’s creativity. She’s positively glowing in recent Instagram clips from the V&A, and for good reason—this is no mere ribbon cutting, this is Princess Catherine immersing herself in something she loves, and the public is invited to enjoy her handpicked favorites through early 2026.

But, oh, the plot thickens outside the gallery walls! Whispers from Greek media tell of a secret yacht escape, with Kate and William spotted relaxing on the £40 million Almax, a superyacht powered by futuristic fuel cells—how very royal, and how very hush-hush! They were the guests of Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, no less. Of course, William and darling Princess Charlotte had to make a brief dash to Switzerland (the Lionesses, you know), but otherwise, the family kept this summer holiday marvelously low-key—at least by Windsor standards.

And the rumor mill is on fire with talk of a major family announcement curving round the royal corner—apparently both Kate and William’s families are already in the loop, setting the stage for a potential new chapter.

Whatever comes next, one thing is clear: Catherine is back in the spotlight, from museum halls to sunlit decks—and all of us royal watchers, Lady Jane included, wouldn’t dare look away. Stay tuned, darlings, because with Kate Middleton, the story simply refuses to stand still!
