Kate Middleton Works Hard for the Money

It appears that Kate Middleton is tired of people thinking she's a lady of leisure. In Hello magazine, Middleton's friends say that she works hard 9 to 5 from home editing the catalogs for her parents' children's party business. Could this all be a response to rumors that the Queen didn't like the image of Kate as a spoiled rich girl doing little more than socializing?
