The other Kate and that wedding

Kate Taylor at Madam Tussauds in London... “Me, Wills and my super-awesome Kate Middletonesque knock-off engagement ring.”

CAMPING out with royal fanatics, cheering with the crowds at THAT kiss and snuggling up to her prince – she might not have made it to Wills and Kate’s ceremony, but radio personality Kate “Knuckles” Taylor says she loved her royal-wedding experience in London from start to finish.

“It was a great atmosphere, everyone was in good spirits – I did wonder if there’d be a sense of over-saturation, but not at all,” she says.

The 104.7 Breakfast show newsreader and co-host with Scotty and Nige flew to London to report on the wedding shenanigans (“Uninvited, Kate’s off to the wedding!”, CN March 31), with high hopes of getting inside Westminster Abbey.

“I didn’t get in, but it wasn’t disappointing to me,” she says. “We camped outside Buckingham Palace for six hours on the morning of the wedding.

“I was practically at the front of the barricades for hours, but then people started walking down The Mall and they filled the road in front of us, which was a little frustrating as we’d been there for so long!

“But we had a great view of the kiss.”
