32 pictures of Kate Middleton before she became a royal - from her university days to her first public appearances

Kate Middleton before she was a royal.

Kate Middleton has been a working Royal since she married Prince William in a fairytale wedding on April 29th, 2011, but her life in the spotlight didn't start there.

The now-Princess of Cambridge met future husband William at St Andrew's University in 2001, and they started dating in 2002 before their long-speculated engagement was announced in 2010. While we now know her as the kind-hearted princess and philanthropist, Kate had various jobs in retail and marketing before becoming engaged to Will, including being a part-time accessory buyer for British clothing brand Jigsaw.
