(Newser) – Prince William “has to” marry longtime girlfriend Kate Middleton, a court-watching source tells the New York Post. “Been seeing her too long not to. It would be another embarrassment for the Palace,” the source says, adding that “the wedding will probably be next year after he finishes military service. Face it, London is very depressed. The Crown could use a royal wedding at this point.”

“Understand, he's not all that easy and affable as he comes off. He's a bit of an arrogant young man who expects people to bow and scrape,” the source adds of the prince—but his sweetie has her own downside: “Not smart. Hasn't picked up a book in her life. But very calculating. Her mother's been planning this her whole life.”

Observer: God help you. What do you men 'who cares if she can't read'. My god isn't that what women in this world is fighting for? I don't care if she is a commoner but a smart and educated one. Don't say those things so young girls can think it's ok, I try to educate my young daughter to know that she needs to be educated, smart and intelligent enough to hold any office a man can. Can't you see the world is changing to people like Michelle Obama who is a First Lady but a very well educated one. Please, please don't say those things in public, it is sending the wrong message to women!
