Six-year-old Diamond Marshall shatters protocol and rushes into the royal arms
A dream come true
It was a dream come true for a little girl who has always wanted to meet a real princess.
When Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, touched down at Calgary Airport yesterday, 6-year-old Diamond Marshall, her little head bald from her battle with cancer, ran up and threw herself right into into her royal idol's arms.

I would like to get a hug from Kate. ;^)
I agree. I like the new couple too. Di was great, very sas when she passed away.
Exactly right.
I thought they were 12th and 13 cousins from a common ancestor. That doesn’t count, I guess.
"Dignities and high sounding names have different effects on different beholders. The lustre of the Star and the title of My Lord, over-awe the superstitious vulgar, and forbid them to inquire into the character of the possessor: Nay more, they are, as it were, bewitched to admire in "the great," the vices they would honestly condemn in themselves. This sacrifice of common sense is the certain badge which distinguishes slavery from freedom; for when men yield up the privilege of thinking, the last shadow of liberty quits the horizon.

She’s a beautiful young lady who married a handsome young prince. For fairy tales and the little girls who read them, that’s close enough.
Long ago people thought royalty had a healing touch—in this case I hope the myth is true.
We must think everyone is cheering for that little girl.
Kate’s more of a princess than Charles is a prince. And Kate wears heels while Charles IS a heel.
LMAO......I agree.
You’ve nailed it.
Diana had the title “princess” as the wife of Charles, the Prince of Wales. Her title was The Princess of Wales. It had nothing to do with her bliid, only with her marriage. She was.NEVER “Princess Diana”, even though the media dubbed her Princess Di.
Thanks
Kate looks wonderful in her beautiful gown for the formal event in America this evening.
Our celebrities looked like over dressed street walkers.
