Want to fit in with the future inlaws? Attend a hunting party! That’s what Kate Middleton did while spending time with Prince William’s family at their Balmoral estate over the weekend. While this may endear her to the royal family, PETA and other animal lovers aren’t feeling the love.
“It is shocking and abhorrent that she is engaging in blood sports.
“Kate is obviously trying to endear herself to the Royal Family and her decision will do her no favours whatsoever,” said a spokesman for campaign group People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
I’m kind of guessing that animal rights is probably the last thing on Kate’s mind as she hangs out with Prince William and his friends for the weekend. I mean, she’s hooking up with a hot, eligible royal and there are rumors of an engagement in her future. While this may be a good tactical move for her, the Daily Mail is reporting that Kate, like Diana, isn’t much into “blood sports” and only does it to get on the good side of the royals.
Intriguingly, friends of Kate pointed out yesterday that she has never been a particularly enthusiastic supporter of blood sports.Indeed, despite being pictured alongside William, also 25, during several pheasant shoots at Sandringham over the past few years, she has never once been seen with a gun in her hand.
Sources close to the couple claimed yesterday that Miss Middleton’s decision to join her boyfriend stalking was part of a ‘concerted campaign’ to prove to William that she ‘has what it takes’ to be his wife.
“Kate is determined to do whatever it takes to convince William that she has the right pedigree.
“She is a solidly middle-class girl but has suddenly developed a remarkable interest in the hunting, shooting and fishing lifestyle,” they said.
We do what we have to in order to fit in, no?

Why is PETA jumping all over her and not the rest of the MALE hunting party including Prince William? Did they mention him in their statement?
