Kate Middleton puts on stylish show as she launches new campaign
The Princess of Wales was in Leeds to launch her Shaping Us...
Choosing the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for your loved one can be difficult.
If all else fails, beautiful red roses are always a safe bet for expressing your love.
However, the Princess of Wales is certain she will not receive any from her husband, Prince William, on Valentine’s Day later this month.
Kate visited Leeds, famous for its Child-Friendly Leeds initiative, and toured its Kirkgate Market to meet stall holders and the general public to hear their thoughts on her landmark project, Shaping Us.
When Kate stopped by florist Neil Ashcroft’s shop, she admired his flower display, and with Valentine’s Day only a fortnight away, he asked if she wanted to buy something “Will William be buying you some roses?” he asked, before cheekily offering her a discount on the blooms.
The stall holder said after presenting her with a bouquet of hyacinths he claimed were her favourite flowers: “I suggested William will be buying her roses and she said ‘I don’t think he will do'”.
So, will they not exchange gifts this Valentine’s Day? Is William looking for something other than flowers?
During her tour, Kate was surrounded by shoppers who had no idea the Victorian market would be hosting a royal visit, and one pensioner addressed the future Queen as “love” when they spoke.
Elsewhere during the visit, Shirley Wainwright, 75, from Harrogate said she made Kate laugh when she told her: “I didn’t know love you were coming, it was a complete surprise.
“I’m just coming on the bus from Harrogate when I came across you.”
