London, Oct 31 (ANI): Prince William's girlfriend Kate Middleton has given up her job as a photographer, fuelling rumours plans are in place for a royal wedding announcement.

Kate quit the role at her parents' multi-million pound event supplies firm Party Pieces.

Her final assignment was shooting the Christmas catalogue at the firm's warehouse in Berkshire while proud William, 28, looked on.
