How Princess Kate Stopped Other Women Hitting On William When They Were At University

Before their romance blossomed at the University of St Andrews, Princess Kate devised a clever way to help Prince William out of uncomfortable encounters with other female admirers.

The pair first met during their first year while staying at St Salvators Halls of Residence and later shared a house with friends in their second year.

As a university student, William quickly became the focus of attention, often finding himself on the receiving end of unwanted advances from other girls.

However, his polite nature made it difficult for him to turn them away. Recognising this, Kate stepped in with a simple but effective solution.

Royal expert Katie Nicholls book, 'Kate: The Future Queen', tells an account from their mutual friend, Laura Warshauer, who recalled one such moment.
