Kate Middleton has a cousin who's as pretty as she is -- and she's on the cover of Playboy. Katrina Darling wears black lingerie on the cover of the September issue, as you can see in this sexy shot:

Middleton and Darling are second cousins, once removed: Kate's great-grandfather and Katrina’s grandmother were brother and sister, "Extra" reports. But don't get too excited about the royal ties: Kate and Katrina have never met.

Darling, 22, will earn six figures for the cover and eight-page photo shoot, according to The Daily Mail. The banker-turned-burlesque dancer also raised some royal eyebrows when she performed her "God Save the Queen” act a London nightclub in honor of the Queen’s Jubilee, "Extra" reports. Do you think she's an embarrassment to the royal family? Or kinda ... hot?

The Royal Family are pretty much an embarrassment themselves.

Playboy is an embarrassment for any family. Nudity for public exposure is obscene, immoral, indecent, filthy, and rude no matter how much money you are paid. There are other ways to make money of course honest money requires work. Her show of God Save the Queen, is disrespectful to God and the Queen. I would not want this for my daughter; there are other life choices that are a blessing to ones life. Stripping is not one of them!

Concur means oppose right? Cuz I don't agree with the top post we're all replying to.

Uhhhh.. there is nothing wrong with nudity for any reason as long as it's completely consensual.

I don't think anyone should be shamed for doing what they want and what makes them happy, and I certainly don't think anyone should be shamed for sexuality either.

I have a close friend who does sex work and she's honestly one of the most positive influences right now. It's what makes her happy, and it's made her an awesome, confident, kind, considerate and successful woman. Now granted, Playboy is more light erotica more than anything... but again, that's really nothing to be ashamed of. Hell, I've done a little and it's rather empowering and fun.

Why would she be an embarrassment. She's the Duchess of Cambridge's cousin she has nothing to do with the Royal Family besides she's not bad looking.
Granted its Playboy so they probably airbrushed(or photoshopped) the pictures to death.

Hard to think of anyone being more of an embarrassment to the royal family than Prince Charles.

reply
Bunk11 to Ekankar 2012/08/16 20:03:09

Oh, I agree. She was an embarrasment too, and would really have been one had she not died in that car accident, but she isn't an embarrasment now because she's been dead for a long time.

"but she isn't an embarrasment now because she's been dead for a long time."

If Princess Diana posed for a publication dedicated to female nudity, she would STILL be an embarrassment to this very day - dead or alive.

reply
MissJo to Joe Blow 2012/08/17 00:18:13

Except Princess Diana was WAY closer to the thrown than Katrina, so that analogy really doesn't matter.

reply
Joe Blow to MissJo 2012/08/17 00:41:17 (edited)

Being that she's not directly related, the whole subject of Katrina posing for Playboy would be moot as well, except for the fact that anyone even remotely related to Royalty inadvertently becomes a high profile figure - even more-so when they "bare it all" in a well known nude publication.

reply
Bunk11 to Joe Blow 2012/08/17 19:10:31

I still think that's a lot less embarrassing than Charles's (and Diana's) behavior and Charles's constant demonstration of his basic stupidity.

reply
Joe Blow to Bunk11 2012/08/17 19:29:26

Well, maybe. Given the puritan values in American society, exposing one's genitalia for public viewing is considered a more severe transgression (or at least more disgraceful) than even adultery - especially if the person exposing their private parts is a women. I mean, how many people do you personally know who "play the field?" Probably quite a few. How many pose in nude magazines?!? That's my point.

Bunk11 to Joe Blow 2012/08/21 16:55:34

I suppose, but which is more embarrassing in the UK? The US doesn't really count in this case.

It's none of the royal families damn business.
Besides, the royal family has been an embarrassment to the modern world for over a hundred years now, still living in the stone age as they do, and what good are they, they don't really do anything but snoot at lower class people, Lol!!!!
The royal family wishes they were Katrina Darling, that's for sure!!!!
