Kate Middleton is pretty much the epitome of composure. It's almost impossible to rattle her-but a group of pranking coworkers at one of Kate's pre-royal jobs managed to do just that when they humiliated her in front of guests on the boat they all worked on.
Here's the backstory: The summer before Kate started college, she took a job as a deckhand at the Ocean Village Marina in Southhampton, working on yachts. Kate's duties included washing the decks, loading massively heavy catering boxes, packing away the sails at the end of the day, and, sometimes greeting guests and giving safety demonstrations.
It was during one of these demonstrations that Kate's ~hilarious~ [insert eye roll here] coworkers decided to prank her. They rigged the life vest that Kate was using in the demo with condoms so that they would shower Kate mid-presentation, in front of the yacht's paying guests. She was understandably not pleased.
Speaking to royal expert and biographer Katie Nicholl for her book Kate: The Future Queen, Cal Tomlinson, one of the skippers on the boats Kate worked on that summer, share the story: "When she pulled the toggle, the thing inflated and a load of condoms fell out. She was mortified and very embarrassed. She took it more seriously than the others might have, but she wasn't thrown off her stride. She was angry at first, but she settled down, and I don't remember her ever getting them back.
