Mentre cresce l’attesa per il matrimonio del secolo tra William e Kate, cominciano a serpeggiare aneddoti e pettegolezzi. Uno dei più curiosi vorrebbe che la sposa varcasse le soglie dell’altare addirittura senza mutande, in linea con quanto accaduto nel segreto e misterioso addio al celibato. Un divertente aneddoto riguarda invece il macellaio di Kate, che sarebbe stato invitato alle nozze. Colpito e lusingato dalla cosa, avrebbe affermato: “Si, vabeh, ma che mi metto?”
Prendiamo da AFFARITALIANI.IT la lista completa degli invitati, scopri se ci sei. A domani con notizie più serie.
GLI INVITATI – All’indomani della pubblicazione della lista dei 1.900 ‘happy few’ che saranno presenti alle nozze di Kate e William – tra cui alcuni capi di Stato noti per ignorare il rispetto dei diritti umani – e’ polemica sul perche’ siano stati ‘dimenticati’ gli ex premier laburisti Tony Blair e Gordon Brown. I gruppi in difesa dei diritti umani hanno stigmatizzato l’invito rivolto alla famiglia reale del Bahrein – che per non creare imbarazzi ha declinato oggi l’invito – contraddistintasi per il pugno di ferro con cui ha represso la recente rivolta a Manama.
Molte le teste coronate che saranno presenti. E non poteva essere altrimenti, dal momento che si sposa l’erede al trono britannico. Ma molte anche le celebrities, che sono state invitate direttamente dagli sposi. Personaggi noti del mondo dello spettacolo e dello sport, che sono stati inseriti nella lista ufficiale degli invitati direttamente dagli sposi William e Kate.

L’ADDIO AL NUBILATO – Ancora mistero intorno all’addio al nubilato della bellissima Kate Middleton. Voci di corridoio (reale) dicono che l’abbia già fatto in sordina. Ben nascosta da giornalisti e reporter. Ma spunta una foto…
L’ABITO – Il mistero attorno all’abito di Kate Middleton si infittisce: sembrerebbe che ora la futura regina d’Inghilterra abbia scelto tre abiti da sposa in modo da spiazzare stampa, fotografi e curiosi il giorno del fatidico “sì”. Secondo la stampa inglese infatti la Middleton avrebbe commissionato un terzo abito allo stilista inglese Jasper Conran il quale, tramite il suo portavoce, ha fatto sapere di non essere assolutamente a conoscenza della cosa mantenendo quindi, nel caso, l’assoluto riserbo. Il condizionale è infatti d’obbligo perché secondo alcuni tabloid potrebbe benissimo essere stata la famiglia reale stessa a metter in giro questa voce in modo da confondere ulteriormente le acque attorno all’abito.
