Princess Kate unnerves William's friend with witty response to 'dating' comments

Kate Middleton once left a friend of Prince William surprised by her brilliant response to his comments about the date with the king.

Kate and William began their romantic journey at the University of St Andrews where the future king was considered one of the most eligible bachelors in the world.

The charming Kate first captured William's heartbreak at a charity fashion show with her stunning appearance in a shocking outfit, which fueled the desire in William's heart to spend the rest of his life with her.

Kate reportedly caught William's eye at that event. The future Queen's tan on the college ramp in this stunning number sealed her fate.

And after the event, their romance grew and they started going out by putting the whole world aside.

According to Claudia Joseph, author of "Kate Middleton: Princess in Waiting", when a friend mentioned how lucky Kate was to date William, she smiled and said: "He's lucky to have me."

Kate's response caught the future queen off guard. Kate and William, who married in 2011, still share a strong bond as a couple and enjoy a happy life together with their three children.

In a rare revelation last year, Kate opened up about her love for William. In response to a student's question about whether she intended to be "royal", the princess said it was an unexpected development, but she eventually "fell in love" with it.
