Royal Wedding Rumors dismissed, but Bookmakers don’t bet on it

Friday, August 20, 2010

A German aristocrat claims to have inside knowledge that Prince William and his girlfriend Kate Middleton are planning to get married in July 2011, and that the exact date is already set but will remain secret. According to Eduard Prinz von Anhalt, the decision has been influenced by Kate Middleton, who pressured Prince William to marry her in the forseeable future, or she would break up the relationship. The Palace commented that these reports are “nonsense and speculation” and that no preparations are going on. But british and international Bookmakers seem not to believe the official version, and have already stopped to accept bets on a wedding in 2011, since they are almost sure it will happen. more at the Telegraph

Suspicious Wedding Date Bet at Bookmaker near Windsor Castle

Thursday, April 15, 2010

A young man in his late twenties tried to place a huge bet on Prince William’s and Kate Middleton’s wedding date. Since he was very well dressed and well-spoken, and didn’t look like the average punter at all, the bookmaker suspected him of having insider information and turned down the 2000 Pounds bet. It is typical for Bookmakers to become suspicious if someone wants to bet a huge amount on a very particular result, because it might be a sign of insider information or even manipulation. Now everyone is wondering who this man was, and if he is in some way related to the Royals or the Royal staff, and therefore knew something that is not official yet. It seems highly unlikely that someone would bet 2.000 Pounds without reason, so this might be a sign that a wedding date is already fixed. more
