Kate Middleton Hosts Charity Event

Last night, Prince William was on hand to support long-time girlfriend Kate Middleton as she hosted a children’s charity auction. Kate Middleton

The event was to raise money for the Starlight Children’s Foundation – something Ms. Middleton got involved in last year. It grants wishes for terminally ill children.

Dressed to the nines, Kate looked stunning in her gray halter dress. Her entire family also came out for their supprt. Her mother, Carole, has been proud of the work Kate has been doing for Starlight.

“Kate has been the inspiration behind our involvement with Starlight Children’s Foundation, a UK charity that helps brighten the lives of seriously and terminally ill children by granting their wishes and providing hospital entertainment,” she said in a statement last year.

By using her family’s mail order party paraphenalia, Kate reportedly sent toys and other gifts to children in the hospital last Christmas.

Last night, as Kate raised money for Starlight, her love Prince William mingled with the guests. Those guests included children who use Starlight for their own dreams to become a reality. One of them, 11 year-old Sophie Roberts, who’s dream is to be a singer, got a chance to sing for everyone.

Kate was inspired to get involved in Starlight after meeting a young girl who was using the charity during a boxing charity event last year.

Wedding of the Count & Countess of Paris

The religious ceremony for Henri, Count of Paris and his second wife, Micaela d’Orleans was held in Arcangues, France on Saturday evening. The couple originally married in a civil ceremony back in 1984. But years of the Count waiting for an annulment from his first marriage to Maria Teresa of Wurttemberg, Duchess of Montpensier, led to the large gap between the two weddings. French Royal Wedding

The bride wore a rather loud purple dress while the groom wore a morning suit. The marriage was officiated at Church of Saint Jean Baptiste by Father Dominique Dye and by Abbé Jean-Marie Mouhica.

Not too many people showed up for this wedding. None of the Count’s five children were in attendance and there were only a scant number of French and European royals – all from non-reigning houses.

76 year-old Henri is the claimant to the French throne. He became head of the family in 1999 after the passing of his father. His own son, Prince Jean, married this past May.
