Kate Middleton and William Wales (Duke of Cambridge) were both students at St. Andrews. They were enrolled in art classes and worked on class projects together. William eventually changed his major to geology. Kate changed hers to gold-digging.
The filmmakers made it clear that Kate Middleton of Bucklebury, a commoner, had her sights set on William from the outset. In numerous scenes, Kate is seen kissing her boyfriend Trevor in front of William. It is obvious that she is not doing the slurpy kissing to demonstrate that she is in a committed relationship. Rather, the ostentatious displays are to incite the ardor of young "Wills."
Kate breaks up with Trevor with the explanation that she is unwilling to transfer to Oxford University to study art there while he pursues his degree. Of course, she would rather remain at St. Andrews where she can perfect the art of gold-digging. With the break-up, Kate does not spend a lengthy period of bereavement for Trevor.
Kate and Wills eventually become part of group of students sharing a flat. Kate brings Wills home to meet her family, including the two doting parents, sister Pippa, and brother James. Wills is given the guest room. It is important to keep up appearances. No shenanigans in the Middleton household.
When Kate and Wills go public with their relationship, Kate gets a sampling of life under the pressure-packed scrutiny of the paparazzi. A helpful servant at Windsor gives Kate instructions on how to curtsy, how to walk three paces behind Wills, and how to exit a motor vehicle discretely.
When Wills undertakes his military training at Sandhurst, his relationship with Kate becomes strained. Wills goes to London to "blow off steam," yet fails to contact Kate. The tabloids coin the expression "Waitie Katie" for the forlorn Kate. Eventually, Wills comes to his senses when he reads about Katie doing some partying, dancing with other men, working at Jigsaw clothing, and behaving like an independent woman.
By this point, Wills no longer feels that he needs his "space" and finally proposes to Kate. The close of the film includes edited scenes from the "fairy tale" wedding with footage of the real Wills and Kate.
The filmmakers did such a good job with the casting that the characters were entirely credible. At the same time, the actors seemed to be more interesting, more dynamic, and even more life-like than their cookie-cutter real counterparts. Would Wills really give his father a lecture on not "protecting" his mother, Princess Diana? Clearly, the goal was to present a beautiful love story of the Prince and the Commoner. Perhaps their relationship was a beautiful bonding of soul-mates. But the final effect seemed closer to the Golddigger and her object of prey.
