Queen Elizabeth was so proud of Prince William. She was absolutely glowing.

[@ariefari1679]

She is the queen, she is not allowed to show too much emotion. Remember, she was raised in a completely different era than we were. I may be wrong, but this may also be her first time, attending a graduation in a public school. Even Charles went to boarding school. So I’m sure her attending an event like this is rare. Any royals attending an event like this is rare.

[@user-tg9nn4nn9h]

She looked as glum an a moon raker!

The Church of England stole all this culture from the Catholic Church and now passing it of theirs after the Catholic genocide, pillage and plunder of Catholic land and property. Also let's not forget William the Conqueror was black and Catholic.

And I love how the Queen was still apart of the ceremony. It show great respect for her and for some reason I didn't think it would happen due to her wanting privacy during this family occasion.

Please appropriately write and call her name as Princess Catherine, not Princess Kate please.. She’s born with “Catherine Elizabeth Middleton” and her title now is The Princess of Wales. Kate was her nickname during university and even Prince William and other active royal family members call her “Catherine” since before she’s married to Prince William.

[@iluop3623]

HRH is not Princess Catherine as she is not a princess in her own right. Call HRH by her title the Princess of Wales.

Me hizo gracia, cómo Carlos y el abuelo miraban el programa, como cualquier plebeyo "¿cuándo le toca a los chicos?"..."ah falta bastante para que salga William". Mientras la Reina y Camila algo aburridas, porque la familia solo quiere ver al niño y con suerte a su novia, el resto da mucha lata siempre. Carlos como siempre, emocionado con disimulo por su hijo graduándose.
