“I loved my time in Anglesey,” the Duchess wrote, about her and
William’s time on the Island while the Prince worked as a
search-and-rescue pilot.
“But I can’t pretend I didn’t feel anxious when William was flying
in challenging conditions, but he loved it and I felt incredibly
proud of him.”
It is believed after being approached about doing something for the
book, Kate decided “she would like to do a foreword,” according to
a royal source.
The book, which aims to reveal what life is really like for an RAF
wife will include “witty and touching” tales spanning from the
1950s to the present day.
It will be the first book the Duchess of Cambridge has written for,
although her sister Pippa Middleton has released her own book,
Celebrate. which was released in 2012.
Louise Campbell, a rep for Book Guild Publishing which will release
the book, explained the three editors, who are all wives of RAF
personnel believed Kate was the perfect choice for the
foreword.
“I think that they just felt that obviously it would lend the book
some amazing credibility to have a forward by somebody that’s
obviously in the public eye, but is also an RAF wife herself,” she
told E! News.
The foreword is not the first time Kate has expressed her concerns
for William when he is on duty.
In July 2011, during a visit to Canada, the Duchess told a service
wife: “I always worry when William goes off on a mission.
“You always fear for them, not knowing if something is going to
happen, it can be very hard.”
The book will be released in May and the profits will be split
between the Royal Air Forces Association and the RAF Benevolent
Fund.
