According to 2011’s “The Making of a Royal Romance” by Katie Nicholl, an insider from William, Prince of Wales, and Catherine, Princess of Wales’, friend group said Carly Massy-Birch was friends and neighbors with William following their break-up. It “grated on Kate” that Massy-Birch would knit near the window and wave at William. However, the real tension rose during a game of “Never Have I Ever” at a 2002 dinner party, when Massy-Birch asked an awkward question.
To participate, players list things they haven’t done before. Other players who have done that thing drink before the next player says what they haven’t done. The insider who attended that party said, “When it was Carly’s turn to play she announced, ‘I’ve never dated two people in this room,’ knowing full well that William was the only one who had because Kate was sitting next to him,” the source said. William apparently glared at Massy-Birch and muttered, “I can’t believe you just said that.” Kate didn’t talk to her much after that.
The insider said Massy-Birch’s statement was surprising and added, “We knew they were together but it was the first time William confirmed his and Kate’s relationship in public.” But, this story of tension between Kate and Massy-Birch has been challenged by an account from none other than Massy-Birch’s mother.
