Britain’s Duchess Catherine has written a foreword for a book about Royal Air Force wives.
The brunette beauty has contributed to ‘Living in the Sliptstream: Life as an RAF Wife’ which is a collection of stories told by women who are married to servicemen, due for release in May.
The Duchess of Cambridge – known as Kate Middleton before she wed Prince William – admits she was "anxious" yet felt "proud" while husband William worked as a Search and Rescue helicopter pilot based at RAF Anglesey for three years.
She wrote: "I loved my time in Anglesey. 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."
Louise Campbell, a representative for Book Guild Publishing, thinks Catherine’s contribution has "amazing credibility".
She told E! News: "The three editors of the collection are all RAF wives themselves, and 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."
Book Guild Publishing added: "These women reveal, in their authentic voices and colorful portraits, what life as an RAF wife is really like.
"When a whole family can be required to up-sticks and move with almost no notice, when rank pulls favour even at home, and when things go comically wrong during a royal visit."
