Unit 2: The Crown at a Crossroads (2nd_gr1)

Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales

The document under study is an extract from an article from the newspaper Tatler, published in January 2025. It is about Prince William (heir to the throne) and his wife, Princess Catherine and their social media usage. Indeed, they share their daily lives and their work on different social media platforms. Moreover, they also share sad news for instance, they shared about Kate’s serious disease. Contrary to the Queen, they prefer to share more about their daily lives to be closer to the people.

The Royal couple is definitely modern/trendy because they use social media and share videos and pictures. They want to look like ordinary people. For Kate and William it may be easier to use social media as they grew up with it as opposed to the late Queen or King Charles who are older and may not really understand the impact of the use of social media on the nation.

Homework: Learn the lesson.
