After their graduation ceremony the couple, joined by their families, attended a celebratory lunch together, and began looking forward to the rest of their lives – but nothing, from here on in, would be the same.
A day before the Wembley concert, held on what would have been his mother's 46th birthday, he was taken aback by a question about whether or not Kate would be attending."I've got lots of friends coming. Everyone's going to be there on the night and it's going to be a very good night," he said – prompting his brother to joke:"Really well avoided William, very diplomatic.
"It speaks volumes about the seriousness of the relationship she has with the royal family," reported a source, who also divulged:"Kate and William had a little time apart last year, but that is very much behind them now. They are very much together."Just over a year after their reported separation, Kate was back by William's side in April 2008, when he received his wings upon completing his RAF training.
While the trip held particularly poignance for the British royal family – as the tour fell on the 225th anniversary of the first royal visit to Canada, by the then Prince William – it was also especially exciting for Kate who had never visited North America.
