August 24, 2008 (Sawf News) - Concerned that Prince William's girlfriend Kate Middleton has been without a job for some time and is perceived to be doing nothing other than socializing and waiting for the Prince to propose, the Queen has suggested that Kate involve herself with charity work.
Kate last worked as accessories buyer for the High Street fashion chain Jigsaw from November 2006 to November 2007.
According to senior Buckingham Palace aides, the Queen is concerned about public misgivings on Kate's current lifestyle and has privately suggested that she take on some work before her engagement is announced, possibly before or just after Christmas. A wedding could take place as early as May or June next year.
According to the Daily Mail, Kate has been advised to work with an animal or children's charity, a 'safe' role that would not invoke comparisons with the late Princess of Wales.
Several charities have already approached her but she has yet to accept their offers.
Friends say Kate is aware of the current buzz surrounding her lack of work. Her own interests lie in photography and fashion, fields she has not been able to pursue because of her high profile lifestyle.
