The Phantom of the Opera Book Report
The future ruler of United Kingdom is about to pop into this world any time soon, and his or her parents, not to mention the whole world, are already excited. Indeed, Kate Middleton and Prince William seem like the eager and loving about-to-be parents that they are that it's almost hard to imagine that they almost didn't end up together. Remember their controversial split in 2007?
Four years after William and Kate started dating, the two had split in March 2007, not giving any reason why. Reports only claimed that their breakup was amicable and mutually agreed upon, but there were speculations that the royal bachelor preferred to act like one rather than be tied to one girl.
So what was the real reason why the two separated and subsequently reunite?
The answer, according to a new book titled "Kate" by Marcia Moody, is because William decided to take a different direction from his father, Prince Charles.
"When his father Charles was wooing Diana and the relationship reached a crossroads, Prince Philip told him that he needed to take action one way or another. And Charles proposed," excerpts of the book obtained by the Daily Mail read.
“When William was faced with a similar dilemma, he went the other way..."
So he celebrated his newly obtained freedom by standing on a table at a club and shouting "I'm free!" while surrounded by a bevy of nearly naked beauties.
And while William got drunk and partied hard, Kate consoled her broken heart by signing up for a charity challenge with an all-female dragon boat racing crew called the Sisterhood. She attended other functions, and even had gone to parties that touted her singlehood, but it was with the Sisterhood that helped distract her from the pain.
"Kate was very down and I think the training became her therapy. Kate had always put William first and she said this was a chance to do something for herself," her fellow rower Emma Sayle said in the book.
William, meanwhile, was having second thoughts.
"Mindful,
