September 2, 2008 (Sawf News) - Kate Middleton works a regular 9 to 5 job, five days a week, compiling and editing catalogs for her parents’ mail order party accessory business, contrary to recent reports that she spends her time shopping and partying.
Kate's parents run the business from their family home in Bucklebury, Berkshire, according to a report in Hello magazine.
Kate's critics had started referring to her as 'Waity Katie' because she appeared to be doing little else other than waiting for the Prince to propose to her.
Recent reports, quoting senior Buckingham Palace aides, had suggested that the Queen was concerned about Kate's image and had privately suggested that she involve herself with charity work.
According to Hello magazine Kate told her friends that the reports are "utter nonsense."
'She is actually working full-time, is on the payroll and plans to continue doing the job,' a friend told the magazine.
Currently, she is also working with Richard Branson's daughter Holly, to organize a charity roller disco in aid of sick children and youngsters in deprived areas.
Kate's own interests lie in photography and fashion, fields she has not been able to pursue because of her high profile lifestyle. Businesses are reluctant to employ her because they don't want paparazzi camping outside their premises all the time.
