Kate Middleton Entitled: Sophie Wessex Tours Wildfire Damage At Fort McMurray While Duchess Glams It Up At EACH Gala

While Sophie Wessex toured the destruction caused by the wildfires at Fort McMurray in Canada, Kate Middleton was glamming it up at an EACH Gala. Can you imagine Kate Middleton getting her hands dirty touring an area ravaged by fire or flood?

Princess Sophie and Prince Edward were met by Governor General David Johnston and Wood Buffalo Mayor Melissa Blake upon their arrival. The Royal couple then boarded a bus and toured the Beacon Hill neighborhood that was destroyed by the wildfires last month.

In truly humble fashion Sophie got off the bus and talked to people about support systems that have been put into place to help those who lost everything due to the devastating fires. Sophie Wessex was also given a tour of the Fort McMurray 468 First Nation where evacuees were able to obtain food, water and gas as they fled the fire.

And what was Kate Middleton doing just a couple of days before Sophie Wessex got a firsthand look at the area in Alberta Canada that was nearly wiped out by the wildfires? The Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William attended a gala for the East Anglia’s Children’s Hospital Hospices of which Kate is a patron.

The EACH gala reception included a Taste of Norfolk reception. But, you must give Kate credit – she recycled a glittery beige-colored Jenny Peckham gown circa 2011 for the evening out with the Prince William. Kate accented her recycled gown with a pair of diamond chandelier earrings that are on loan from Queen Elizabeth.

It sounds as if the Duchess of Cambridge had to be cajoled into attending the East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices event and didn’t have time to get a new dress. In one of the photos from the event Prince William looks as if he cannot wait to leave the reception.

The future King looks completely bored by the entire evening.

Kate isn’t willing to do take on the difficult tasks like visiting Fort McMurray, but Sophie Wessex doesn’t seem to mind rolling up her sleeves and jumping in to meet people truly affected by a devastating event. Princess Sophie is one of the hardest working Royals and that’s probably why Queen Elizabeth prefers Sophie’s company to Kate Middleton’s.
