College Sweethearts
Their university days were over, but William and Kate knew their relationship wasn't. Taken on June 23, 2005, the day of their graduation ceremony at the University of St. Andrews, this Middleton family snapshot captures the prince in a tender moment, caressing Kate, whom he met four years earlier. During their time at St. Andrews, the couple enjoyed relative privacy from photographers under an agreement brokered between Clarence House (Prince Charles's official residence), Britain's Press Complaints Commission and newspaper editors.
