Kate, William Ate Fertility-Enhancing Brussels Sprouts on Honeymoon
Already prepping for a royal heir?
Prince William and Kate could have ordered anything and everything (courtesy of a private butler) to eat and drink during their super-luxe honeymoon in the Seychelles -- so why in the world did they order cream cheese and Brussels sprouts in advance of their arrival?!
Royal watcher Katie Nicholl reports in the new Vanity Fair that William, 28, requested that their private villa be stocked with the funny combo; interestingly, brussels sprouts, high in folic acid, are said to aid in fertility.
And Prince William and Princess Catherine (their reported preferred titles, Nicholl writes) watched their wedding after the fact (wearing terrycloth robes!) in between receptions on April 29.

"It was just the two of them, and they were so excited to actually see it on the television," a Palace aide told Nicholl. "Harry joined them afterwards, and they were all in high spirits."
A highlight? When little bridesmaid Grace van Cutsem famously scowled on the palace balcony! "They were laughing when the cameras panned onto little Grace on the balcony, and William was saying, 'Poor Grace, she looks terrified!'"

Nicholl also reveals a touching wedding reception toast from the Princess' dad Michael Middleton. "I knew things were getting serious when I found a helicopter in my garden," he told the revelers. "I thought, Gosh, he must like my daughter. I did wonder then how William was going to top this if they ever got engaged."
Back home in Anglesy, the royal couple are keeping it simple for now. They have turned down Prince Charles' offer of a larger staff, and Kate has delayed appointing her ladies-in-waiting -- but has been invited to join the R.A.F. Wives Club.

And when they travel to Canada and the U.S. in June and July, their entourage will be limited to just 6 to 10 people -- and no valets, despite Kate's numerous daily wardrobe changes.
Tell Us What You Think
10How could those be their "preferred titles"? Catherine can't be called Princess Catherine by British law because she wasn't born a princess. The only people with "Princess" before their names have to be born into royalty, like Princess Anne. If she wasn't called by her title Duchess of Cambridge, she would be Princess William (like Princess Michael of Kent). I'm sure her preferred title is the Duchess of Cambridge. Especially since she is referred to as that by the British government and royal family websites. You "reporters" should check your facts before you write fake things like that to make yourselves look like insiders...
Maybe they both like brussel sprouts and cream cheese, I do! I usually get them for myself, as husband and entire family don't like them! Husband also does not like cream cheese except in cheesecake! This was a time when they could eat anything they liked without worrying about others and there tastes....good for them, and if it also helps with pregnancy, God bless
they need http://ineedfacebookfriends. comma so they can meet some pimply faced people
So Operations Provide A Heir is underway? LOL The Royals are really useless.
I think it is time to leave these 2 alone, I can't believe there are articles of what they ate on their honeymoon. Next, we will read that William ate a steak medium rare and had sour cream on his baked potato, seriously, this is nonsense.
This is the most ridiculous article-This is such a private matter, whether it is true or false and you people need to leave them alone! Remember Diana?
Pathetic US. And by the way, who broke their confidentiality agreement by providing this info. Get real.
ROFL! What is wrong with the media. I fell off of my chair laughing when i read the headline. who the heck cares what brussel sprouts they ate.lol
Maybe they ordered brussels sprouts because they are delicious. Holy crap US, talk about sensationalism.
Seriously??????
