TODAY IN HISTORY: On this day in 2010, the engagement of Prince William and Catherine Middleton was announced to the world. They were married at Westminster Abbey the following spring.

"Waity Katie" must wait no more. A mere eight years since the couple met, Britain's Prince William is officially engaged to Kate Middleton, royal officials said today.

The happy couple appeared for the first time after the announcement today arm-in-arm before a barrage of camera flashes, Middleton wearing the famous engagement ring worn by William's mother, the late Princess Diana. The two met nearly a decade ago while students at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. The relationship garnered some controversy because Middleton does not come from royalty and royals are generally expected to wed other aristocrats.

"Well as you may recognize now, it's my mother's engagement ring and it's very special to me, as Kate is very special to me now as well. It was only right the two were put together," William said."It was my way of making sure mother didn't miss out on today and the excitement and the fact that we're going to spend the rest of our lives together."

William said he didn't know where to start when asked why the couple was apparently so loving, but said she makes him laugh. For her part, Kate said William was very supportive of her.Like the queen, Middletons' parents, Michael and Carole Middleton, said they too were"absolutely delighted" by the announcement.

The announcement came to the elation of Britons, many of whom viewed the engagement as a seemingly inevitable, yet unreachable moment. Within just 25 minutes of the announcement's post on the royal Facebook page, more than 1,400 people"liked" the news.The wedding will take place in the spring or summer next year in London, the statement said."He was obviously extremely excited about the news and thrilled about what lies in store," Cameron told reporters.

EpsteinCoverup Now report about Andrew and why the story got canned. EnemyOfThePeople

You know what we actually care about... THE JEFFERY EPSTEIN SCANDAL... ABC covered up.

Epstein story or GTFO

Am I the only one who is thinking ABC is tone deaf as hell? It's not even a month after the EpsteinCoverup was leaked, and they're back at it with this Royal Family shit, and from the comments it's a big snooze fest. You sold out children being molested to get photos of this?

What important relevant news was put on the back burner for this

I can’t even get through this garbage video. Where’s Amy Robach’s Epstein Story?

slow news day?

WTF? On this day in 2008, my dog was born and was announced to all and sundry. We were joined at the hip some 8 weeks later. We are still together.

then a couple years later baldy goes and cheats on Kate. we cannot stan

And to think ABC covered up a story about Epstein so they could interview the Royals years later.

It's all matter of sun set and sun rise

Today in history, 3 years ago you dropped the Epstein story and are complicit in all of his rapes (and his leftist friends) since then.

What's the difference between a King and a Dictator? Nothing.

Why is this news? We live in the U.S. after all. Why are you not able to better read the pulse of news consumers?

You buried the Epstein story so you could run puff pieces like this. LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

Thank goodness you still have access to the royals by burying the Epstein story.

No one cares.

'WHOOPI...'

This made me cry!👏👏👏❤️
