Prince William was reportedly left deeply unhappy after an alleged suggestion that Kate Middleton change the spelling of her first name before becoming a senior member of the Royal Family, according to a royal biography that has resurfaced online.

The claim appears in Kate! The Courage, Grace, and Power of the Woman Who Will Be Queen by royal author Christopher Andersen, who writes that the proposal was made during the early years of Kate's relationship with William, when King Charles III and Queen Camilla were still the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall.
