Kate Middleton 'wants to work as a photographer'

London, Aug 1 (ANI): Prince William's girlfriend Kate Middleton apparently wants to work as a photographer.

The 28-year-old - often slammed for not having a proper job - is said to be 'exhilarated' after landing the deal for an exhibition of her work.

She has been secretly preparing a portfolio of pictures for months while living with Wills, also 28, in Wales.

Middleton - who studied photography as part of her History of Art degree - is now finalizing details of the London show due to take place later this year.

"This is Kate's passion. She has always wanted to be a photographer since she was a student," News of the World quoted an insider as saying.

"It is a bit ironic that after all her run-ins with photographers she has now become one. I suppose if you can't beat them, join them," the insider added. (ANI)
