Anglais : Kate and William : A lovely royal wedding !

THE ENGAGEMENT}

Kate and William first met a few years ago while they were both students in the same college : the university of Saint Andrews.
They got engaged in October 2010 during a trip to Kenya and the official announcement of their engagement was made on 16th November 2010.
William offered Kate his mother’s ring as an engagement ring (his mother was Lady Diana, she died in a car accident in Paris in 1997).
