Despite being newly-engaged, it looks like Kate Middleton and Prince William are starting to act like a true royal couple now.. In their first official public appearance in the Teenager Cancer Trust since the engagement announcement last month, they kept an appropriate amount of distance towards each other by not holding hands despite both in good mood. Notice the pictures where Kate always had both of her hands placed on her purse the whole time? Which left me thinking: is doing something done by civilians not royalty-appropriate? I'm not sure if this is an unspoken rule, but I've seen other royal families do this as though showing affection towards each other is inappropriate in a royal family. That's sad though...I guess Kate is doing her best to fit into the royal family now.
