I hope Cressida Bonas sticks around for a while. She’s a fun addition to our royal gossip, mostly because I’ve always assumed that Cressida Bonas sides with the York princesses on all things and that means she’s mortal enemies with the Middleton women. What is the cause of all of this alleged consternation? Is it just a simple matter of “old money aristocracy” versus “gauche nouveau riche”? Is it about Kate’s desire to be the alpha dog of the royal brides? Or is it about Kate’s discomfort with anything related to Cressida’s half-sister Isabella?
Ayway, after fueling months of speculation that Harry was looking to marry “the anti-Kate” Cressy, Cressy did quit her dance studies, allegedly because she wants to have a more princess-ready CV. Basically, we’re witnessing the Waityiazation of Cressida. Cressida is going to waity for the ring by working odd jobs that allow her free time to bang Harry. And so, just like that, Waity 1.0 is welcoming Waity 2.0 to the family!
“Kate never took any of Harry’s girlfriends seriously, because he’s been a wild child,” reveals a palace insider. “But she had a change of heart after Harry invited Cressida to Sandringham to spend her first Christmas with the royal family, and he may propose to her soon.”
Kate immediately set up a tea date, giving her potential sister-in-law a crash course in palace behavior: “Kate promised to mentor her on everything from hair, clothes and makeup to how to converse with the Queen. Cressida was always scared of Kate, but now she feels a million times better.”

Hahahaha “Kate promised to mentor her on everything from hair, clothes and makeup…” For the love of God, Cressida, do NOT listen to Kate. She will have you wearing raccoon eyeliner and huge, sausage-curled weaves. She will make you wear flouncy miniskirts that fly up in front of children. Showgirls: Royal Edition. Noooo! Of course, Cressida is the kind of girl who wears (“ironic”) scruchies while on dates with Prince Harry. So maybe Cressida could use some help, although NOT from Kate.
In addition to this story, the UK mag Look has a similar piece about Cressida and Kate burying the proverbial hatchet, but their newfound friendliness is making the palace very uneasy. A source tells Look: “There is a fear that everything is changing so fast. Many of the more senior officials at the palace don’t like the modernisation of the royals, and with Kate and Cressida becoming more influential, there’s obviously a worry that even more changes are afoot.” Well… I think the palace’s Men In Grey should be worried if Cressida and Kate are the future of the monarchy.
