She looks to be around 5’9. And John Moore, some of your estimates for a couple celebs are a bit too low in my opinion.

How lovely to see Kate, Princess of Wales, visiting a β€˜baby bank’, which gives clothes to needy families for their children.

She got on with everyone and said that she’ll return with her children, who will help out! πŸ‘

5ft8.75.

173 at most.
Sandy Cowell said on 22/Sep/22
Good comment, Patty, but that means that I gave Kate 1.75” too much! 🀭 I’ll keep my eyes glued for further evidence, but I can’t see as low as 5ft7. Her great proportions are totally in her favour. One thing’s for sure though: Kate won’t have to think twice whether wearing high heels will lower the perceived height of the tall Prince William!
Sandy Cowell said on 21/Sep/22
Kate’s and William’s two children, George, 9, and Charlotte, 7, were impeccably behaved at the Queen’s sad funeral on Monday.

What a credit they are to the couple! πŸ‘¦πŸ‘§

5ft8.75 for Kate.
Patty Reeves said on 25/Aug/22
She’s only 5’7 the same height as Emma raducanu. There’s a pic of them together side by side in sneakers. Still a decent height plus she’s slim and proportional.

Hi Rob,

I watching Queen's 70 years reign and Kate simply towered over Prince Charles, who in shoes must be 5'11". She looked at least 4 to 5" taller. How could that be possible? She must be wearing really big heels
Editor Rob
Charles is shrinking every time I see him, he was looking barely 5ft 8 now.
Alice84 said on 12/Apr/22
Waity wishes to be Diana's height at 5'10 lol

How tall is queen mathilde of belgium ? Please decode her height as well rob.

I think Mathilde can edge Kate out.
Rich Paul said on 27/Jan/22
In 4 inch heels she’s still 5 inches shorter than 6-4 Prince William who’s 6-3. I believe she’s 5-8. No more, no less. Still tall. But she’s listed all over as being 5-10 which isn’t true. Being thin makes her look taller.
Arch Stanton said on 30/Dec/21
She doesn't need to James, she's lovely as she is! I've always liked her, William got very lucky meeting her when he did. Just under 5'9 is good!

Emma Raducanu will be worth adding in the summer I think, she'll be a big name in tennis!
Beau Dare said on 23/Nov/21
I first met Kate Middleton in Starbuck's on Kings Road, in Chelsea London, when I was working there as an actor/ screenwriter, early one July morning, in 2008, as she stepped up behind me as I was getting my coffee at the counter. She was very sweet and friendly, and stood 5'9" tall with elegant posture and bearing. Kate then smiled brightly and said good morning, as she patiently waited for her coffee, as several photographers gathered outside the front window of the shop. She handled it all with a charming, polite smile.. Very classy lady.

Arch Stanton said on 21/Dec/20
Geenrally about 5 ft 9, though keeping in mind William isn't a solid 6'3, just under I'd say. Her and William's kids look like the grand/greatparents when they were younger, George and Louis are like her dad and Charlotte like the Queen! Rare for a girl that young to look like a Queen and so grown up so young, to me she looks like a future Queen!!
Aly said on 23/Oct/20
@ Nic
In those pictures she's standing next to well know short women (Hello, the Queen is tiny) and Kate is wearing 3 3/4" rupert sanderson malone heels.
Unless she's in flats or the very occasional kitten heel, her heel is always at least 3.5". Kate has shorter legs and a long, tiny waist, slim hips so her most flattering look is always an A-line or flared dress at or above the knee, trim waist + big heels to balance
recapa said on 19/Oct/20

174 cm fits her well
Rojina said on 6/Jun/20
I wouldn't put her above 5"7 to be honest. Her legs though perfectly proportioned seem a bit too twiggy and short for 5"8. She is shockingly skinny but not emaciated as she would have been if she was nearer Diana's height

she is tall around 5ft9 maybe more
Lleya said on 10/Jul/19
She’s 5ft7” at best. I am 172cm and having met her while she was wearing flats I can say she is definitely shorter than me, but not by much. No idea where the 5ft9” came from. Also look at the recent photos of her with Maxima and Letizia at the Garter 2019, she is clearly shorter than Max (who is 5ft9”) and only taller than Letizia (who is 170cm) because her heels are higher.

Kate is much taller than Meg but she's listed as around 5-foot-8. If that's her actual height, then Meg is much shorter than that within the very low 5-foot range.

Not tall as 177.5cm Princess Diana. Kate can be 174.6cm.

Somewhhere between 174-176. I don't see her as 5'10, she looks petite for a tall woman.

Maybe she’s even 5’9 and a half or close to 5’10 considering how much taller than Meghan is.
Ninasss said on 27/Dec/18
She’s definitely 5’9
Matt93 said on 16/Dec/18
If Meghan Markle (or her PR team) claim(s) to be 5ft6 then Kate Middleton should be upgraded to 5ft10 or 5ft11 as she's got a strong 4-5 inch advantage over her. If we're going to pump or inflate the height of one person, we might as well do it for everyone.
Honestly Turkish comment said on 2/Nov/18
All models dont need little or medium eyes.Big eyed people can be model too like Kate Middleton. 174 cm (5feet8 and a half) for her.
khaled taban said on 23/Oct/18
Rob, I am 5'9" on the dot , Do you think she will edge me out if I stand next to her ?
Editor Rob
I don't think she would. She is fond of heels...but when in a sneaker, doesn't seem to be a strong 5ft 9er.
khaled taban said on 22/Oct/18
She is tall but she is nowhere near 5'10" , I'd say 5'9" at most .
Rojina said on 30/Sep/18
This is QUITE the upgrade,Rob! I swear you had her listed as 5"7-which is ALWAYS what I have her down as. Her twiggy figure gives the impression of someone closer to 5ft 7 and no more
Editor Rob
I don't believe she was ever that low :) Although I can see an argument for 5ft 8 to 8.5 range, not 5ft 7 though.
Evergreen said on 9/Sep/18
I used to guess 5'8 (there's no way she's the 5'10 many articles claim...not when you see her next to people like Michelle Obama) and think the 5'7 estimates were too short, but I bought a couple of dresses off eBay that KM has worn, and they hit my leg at almost the same place as Kate. I'm a strong 5'5/weak 5'6. I do have long legs and a short torso, but I'm not sure how much a difference that would make for the length of a dress. So I'm going to go with 5'7!
Siobh?n said on 10/Jun/18
Having watched a few scenes from the Queen's birthday yesterday, Kate Middleton is 5ft8 or 5ft9 and the rest (Camilla, Meghan) are quite a few inches shorter than their online 5ft8 height claims. The Queen is tiny because she's almost a century old and lost significant height.
Buzz said on 9/Jun/18
She was standing much taller than meghan at trooping the colour. If meghan is 5ft5 then kate looks close to 5ft10. Although I suspect meghan to be shorter than 5 ft 5 and Catherine would be more 5ft9
Natalie_M said on 2/Jun/18
Kate Middleton is undeniably a tall and elegant lady. 5ft9 is believable for her but if Meghan Markle could claim that she's 5ft7, then it would be fair to list Kate Middleton as 6ft1 or 6ft2.
Renegade said on 31/May/18
Kate surely is within the 5ft8-5ft9 height range. Tall and beautiful.
Alistair_21 said on 27/May/18
5ft 8 or 5ft 9 would be convincing.

Kate isn't the problem, it's Megan she is definitely way shorter than 5ft 6in.

She nearly disappeared when in the car beside Harry, she was wearing high heels on their engagement announcement and he could have rested his head on top of hers!
Tunman said on 19/Dec/17

173-4 isn't impossible but it's definitely the minimum arguable.5'7 range is impossible.She looks 4"smaller but 6" without the heels so she's like a weak 5'9 next to William.I could buy a fraction less if William doesn't have the best posture like 5'8.25".She's generally too comfortably over his eyelevel in heels to be anything under 5'8 range
AnotherAnon said on 29/Oct/17
Please look at Kate with Queen Mathilde who is 5'9". There is absolutely no way she is this height. There is noticeably more than an inch between them. I wouldn't be surprised if Kate was 5'7"-5'7.5"!
Genevieve O'Hara said on 24/Oct/17
Lovely Kate. Gorgeous, swan like elegant.
I have seen both her & Princess Beatrice on separate occasions. My huaband took a photo of me shaking Kate's hand. Definitely no more than 5ft7 barefoot. I imagine a lot of PR people are lying to give illusion Kate is tall like Princess Diana. She's not; but way more beautiful & poised.
I'm 5ft4 & was wearing 4" platforms. She had court pumps on about 2". Almost same height in photo.
As for Princess Beatrice.. I towered over her....

I don't know their footwear but with Tara Palmer she seemed taller.

Congratulations to Kate and Wills on the announcement of their third baby! Having them so close together in age is going to be such fun for all the kids and for the proud parents, but an awful lot of hard, though rewarding work for the latter!
At this happy time, I'd like to cast my first ever vote for Kate, and that is 5ft8 and three quarters!

Once again, many congratulations Kate and Wills!

This 5'9" stuff is nonsense . Kate is 5'8" . Her college friends have said it to the press many times. It would be interesting to see her brothers girlfriend 5'9" Donna Air stand beside her . I think Donna might edge her out.
Serena Moon said on 31/Aug/17
She would definitely look taller (real 5'9" / 1.75) should she have a better posture and use dresses which enhanced the inferior part of her body (from the wrist down).
Rose said on 28/Aug/17
I wanted to add something to the discussion. I am a legit 5'10". I measured myself in 4 inch heels and I am 6'1" on the nose. In three inch heels I am exactly 6'. I hope this helps in the future to determine height better. A woman who is 5'10" with a 6'3" husband would still be 2 inches shorter than him even with 4 inch heels (which are about the highest heel most women wear).

To me Kate looks to be about 3 inches shorter than her husband in 4 inch heels, so I think the height given here is accurate. I would say she is 5'9" at the tallest and 5'8.5" at the shortest.
Nik said on 21/Aug/17
This is about right!
Whitney Childress said on 20/Jul/17
Kate's limbs aren't the length of a 5'10" woman. And, her nude platform heels are the equivalent of a stripper's clear, plastic heels - meant to create an illusion.
I used to work in fashion & noticed the discrepancy immediately.

Are you sure she's almost 5'9? I mean in this photo (Click Here) they're on flat surface and side by side. You can see she's smaller for someone near 5'9 in heels. You can see her heels in here: (Click Here) and they're 4-5 inches. I used to think at most she's 5'8 but now it seem like she's at most 5'7 1/2, and no more than that. I've lessen my range to 5'6 1/2 to 5'7 1/2. Weird I feel like she's shrinking every time. It would be nice if Kensington Palace tell us her height and save us from all speculation.
gtr said on 25/Feb/17
Legitimate 5'7 ''. She wants to be seen as tall, as her mother-in-law who has 5'10.5 ". It's obvious that Kate lies, she's far from 5'10 ''. She's a normal woman, not 5'9 "tall. She is at most 5'7 ''.
Jack said on 19/Feb/17
@Curious
It's called rounding. 5'8.75" is exactly 174.625cm which rounds up to 1.75m where as 5'9" equals 175.26cm which rounds down to 1.75m.
Curious said on 6/Feb/17
I wonder what the reasoning is here" The Duchess is listed as being 1.75m tall or 5'8.75" yet her father-in-law is listed as 1.75m but 5'9".

I thought she'd be skinny towards athletic build rather than skinny towards skeleton like by looking at those bikini pics. I'm not to judge just fond of expressing my opinion which of course is expected to be irrelevant to the eyes of a % of people.

Arch Stanton said on 13/Oct/16
Though the Middleton family are not that tall on average, more tallish overall. But William has very tall genes from the Spencers, and Prince Philip was a decent height peak, so yes, George could end up 6'3-6'5 quite easily. You'd guess his final height more likely that range than under 6 ft anyway! Almost certainly he'll end up over 6ft!

Finally nice to see her height finally corrected to reasonable stat. The media reported her as 5'10" for ages when she, even in 4" L.K. Bennett sledge heels, was notably shorter by 4" than Will, who is reported to be 1.91/6'3" . were she 5'10, she would have been an inch shy of being just as tall as him in heels.

She is standing beside Michelle Obama who is 5' 9" perhaps 5' 8.5 with heels Michelle reaches 5'11 max. Now Kate is a very tall girl herself. She is wearing a much higher heel and she appears 5 inches shorter doing my calculations she would be 7 inches shorter than Michelle who is 5' 9". MY conclusion is Kate is 5' 2" in height (Without shoes of course) with heels on she looks 5' 5"
Allie said on 13/Jan/16

Agree with you, Lora. I've seen her at St Andrews (did my postgrad studies there) and she's small (less than 1,70m). My gf is 1.74m and she's significantly taller than her. I'm 1.92m and I was surprised to see Kate's husband shorter than me as well. I think they've been exaggerating a bit on the height thing. I used to be self-conscious about my height but not anymore. Everyone wants to be taller these days..
lora said on 6/Aug/15
In the polo match this june, she appears to be an inch taller than Zara who is 5'6. Also, Kate could not top Sir Ben Ainslie (6'0) even in 4-6inch high heels. In the boat event in july, she wore flats and looks way too short for a 5'10 or even a near 5'9. You can see that William is looks so big compared to her and the same can be said with Ben Ainslie.

Here are some pics:
Click Here Click Here

William is not even standing straight most of the time. He's always hunched over and he's very tall compared to her. I'd say she's probably near 5'7 or somewhere around 5'7 but no more than 5'8. Not a bad height but her height is often hyped up!
mm said on 26/Jul/15
If you look at photos of Kate and Zara Phillips, you don't see too much of a height difference. Since Zara is an athlete, her height is officially reported to be 5'6". When standing next to Kate as in this photo Click Here Kate only appears to be an inch or so taller, so probably about 5'7" or 5'7.5"

Rob do you have a photo to add? How tall do you reckon George will end up? William at 6'3" and Kate at 5'9" are borderline very tall but they're the tallest in their families relatively speaking. Kate's family are pretty average in height. Still, he has a chance of being 6'5" or something doesn't he?
BGee said on 27/Nov/14
She's definitely not over 5'9 or even 5'10 as some claim (which is only to draw out unfair Diana comparisons). She's at a great height at about 5'7 - 5'8 (not too short but not too tall and gangly like some models are) and is thin hence making her seem taller.
Arch Stanton said on 14/Nov/14
If she's 5 ft 10 Prince William is a strong 6 ft 4. The rest of her family are average to tallish range so proportionally she's the tallest member I think at a weak 5'9" which is solid tall range for a woman.
Arch Stanton said on 24/Oct/14
Oh c'mon she doesn't look 50 but she could pass for 40.

Kate looks about 2" shorter than the 6'0" Michelle Obama wth both wearing similar heels, so that would make Kate 5'10". Mowever MO at close to 180lbs is much bigger than the 130lbs Kate.

I agree with Zimzoe. There's no way that Kate is 5'10". If she were 5'10", she would be almost as tall as William when she is in heels (and she's always in very high heels, even when she's casually dressed). To me, she looks like she's 5'7"-5'8" and probably 5'10" in heels. She's still tall, but not 5'10". Just look at pictures of her with women like Michelle Obama and Nicole Kidman. She's consistently shorter than they are, even though she always wears huge heels.
Natasha1 said on 1/Jan/14
5'7.5"-5'8"
Zimzoe said on 28/Nov/13
Wow, so much discussion about Kate's height. The only reason I am commenting is that I get irritated with the reports that she is 5ft 10". I am 5ft 10 and married to a man who is 6ft 3. With high heels on I am almost as tall as he is! She is much more likely to be between 5ft 7 and 5 ft 8 which is a great height for a woman so she is very fortunate!
pitiful said on 10/Nov/13
@Jon46 No need to insult people who give their opinion! When you look at her opicture she is 6ft without the hat. So 6ft without the heels means that she is not 5'10 it make her around 5'8.
Jon46 said on 9/Nov/13
I think Kate is a genuine 5'10 or very close.
Never mind comparing if she is taller than Mrs X or Mr X, who's heights can vary alot. Compare her with known constant values like cars or vehicles. Look here

You can tell that Kate isn't 5'10" when you look at photos of her with Pippa, who is apparently 5'5". Kate is taller than Pippa, but I'd say only by 2-3 inches. She's not 5 inches taller than Pippa.

We don't know what kind of heels you wear, but a woman who is truly 5'10" should have no problem looking at least 6' in the kind of heels that Kate wears (4"-5" heels). Of course, 4" heels don't necessarily make you look 4" taller, but they DO add a few inches, or else women wouldn't wear such high heels. Even when Kate is wearing huge heels, she consistently looks about 5 inches shorter than William, which would mean her height in high heels is around 5'10". She can't be 5'10" (as the media claims she is) if she looks 5'10" only in such high heels. 5'7"-5'8" maybe, but not 5'10".

Well if in heels you are not his height you are either shorter than 5'10 or your husband is taller than 6'2 because it is just not possible not to be his height if you wear heels andf if you are only 3 inches shorter than him.

5'10" is very tall for a woman, and if she were truly 5'10", she would easily be over 6' and much closer to William's height in her high heels, but she always looks about 5" shorter than he does. She's probably 5'10" in heels ....

I agree with Barbara that Kate doesn't appear to be any taller than around 5'7". She's definitely above average in height, but there's no way that she's 5'10" because she looks several inches shorter than Michelle Obama, who is a legit 5'10" (and Kate always wears higher heels than Michelle Obama does).

She's probably 5'10" in heels, but definitely not barefoot. If you look at Kate's photos from over the years, you'll notice that she didn't look as tall as she does now when she was dating Wiliiam and her heels got much higher after her engagement. She also lost a lot of weight before her engagement, which makes her look taller. In any event, it's hard not to notice that she always wears at least 4" heels and you rarely see her in flats or even moderate heels. Even when walked out of the hospital with her baby, she was wearing high heels. I think she always looks great, and I love the way she dresses. I just don't think she's 5'10", as the media has claimed.

Editor Rob
nearly 5ft 9 I think is still ok for her
little sue said on 27/Jul/13
She wore 3 inch wedges when she left the hospital, not the usual high heels with a small platform she usually wears. The would have given her just under 2 inches of extra height
Dominika said on 27/Jul/13
It is interesting that Kate's height is the same next to William either she is with or without heels. Check the photos from her first hospital visit and pictures leaving the hospital with the baby.

For your information I am 178 cm tall and I had a boyfriend who was 192 cm. WhenI was in heels I was still shorter, just like Kate is.

In the photos of her leaving hospital after the birth of her baby, she is standing next to William, who is 6'3, and wearing about 3 inch heels she is several inches shorter than him. If she were 5'10, she would be the same height as William in those pictures. It appears she is no more than 5'7. She always wears at least 3 inch heels, usually 4 or 5 inches.

Have a look at the pic's at the Queens 60th Anniversary, when she is getting out of the Range Rover and tell me what you think?
I recon she is incredibly beautiful, and very tall too. This Range Rover Autobiography she is stepping out of, is listed as 1885mm (74.2 inch or 6ft 2). Its safe to say that Kate is level with the car and she is not stood up properly. This makes her 6'3 in my opinion minus some big heels (which she loves) I recon she is a solid 5'10.

Comparing with other people is a bit hit and miss. Comparing with a car is very reliable IMHO taking into account camera angles and such :)
Nervous said on 5/Mar/13
Yes Stephanie, Michelle Obama consistently looks about 3 inches (if not more)taller with about an Inch Less Heel than Kate in the pics I have seen. If Michelle Obama is around 5"11, that would make Kate 5"7. Arch, David Beckham isn't 5'11, so you have a woman in let's say 4-5 inch heels next to him and she would look very tall. I think he is Maybe 5'10. There is a photo here of Shawn's I think, where Prince William towers over him. Every pic due to angles and what not is different, but when she's photographed next to tall women who have no reason to fib about their heights, she continually looks around 5'7. People at my university think I look 5"9, but I'm not. I have seen pics of Kate looking 5-6 inches shorter than William in heels, over and over. Trust Prince William's height, Michelle Obama's height but not the heights of actors and sport stars who need and want to look bigger than life.
Stephanie said on 4/Mar/13
The people who knew her at university said she was 5' 8" or 5' 9". And when she is in flats next to William she looks closer to 5' 8". Next to Nicole Kidman, Kate is visibly shorter. And Michelle Obama towered over Kate.
Arch Stanton said on 27/Feb/13
Not really Nervous, she gets within 3-4 inches of William in heels, she's typically pulling off 5'11.5-6' in heels which typically give about 3 inches.So barefoot she's 5;8.5"-5'9 range. Charlize Theron is a good example of a woman who is 5'9,5"-5'10" legit and she looks taller in comparison to 6'3" Chris Hemsworth and seems to reach 6'0.5"-6'1" in similar heels, she's about an inch taller than Kate.
Nervous said on 26/Feb/13
A woman near 5'9 would look much taller next to a 6'3 man, given she usually has a 2-3 inch heel advantage and would not have looked so much shorter than Michelle Obama. In the photos of her and her husband without shoes, she is clearly closer to 5'7..her eyes are not to his adam's apple.(not including the photo of them walking downstairs, which is misleading). Beautiful woman, but not this tall.

Dear 'someone',
Kate is beautiful. And tall for a girl. You clearly need to get your eyes checked. Or your standards re-adjusted.
someone said on 7/Feb/13
She does not look like a high fashion model...Being thin and above average height does not mean that you look like one. I mean, Kate Moss is average height(5 ft 6), yet she looks very modelesque because of her face. THIS Kate, on the other hand, has a long face and her lips are non-existent. I don't find her beautiful and I know lots of people who don't either (even if the media is trying to brainwash everyone into thinking she does). Anyway, the comments should be about her height...
SK said on 6/Feb/13
samanta, I agree. Princess Diana was 5'10", and she was very tall with or without heels. We didn't see her with 4-5 inch heels because (1) she didn't need them and (2) such high heels were not the style in the '80s. To me, Kate looks like she would be 5'7"-5'8" and 5'10" with high heels on. If she were truly 5'10", she would basically be William's height with her high heels on, but she's not. She consistently looks about 5 inches shorter than him in heels. She's definitely tall, but not 5'10". My sense is that the media exaggerated her height to make her seem more like the "model" type.
samanta said on 4/Feb/13
I agree with SK, she's not 5'10"!!!

SK said on 2/Feb/13
This seems more accurate than her claimed height of 5'10," but regardless of whether she's taller or shorter, she's still pretty, elegant, and above average height. I can't believe that someone wrote below that she has "just a typical British face." I'm sorry, but I don't see many British women who look like her--not even celebrities. Granted, she didn't always as fabulous as she is now. She lost weight for the wedding and her look has evolved and become more refined over time. I never believed that she was truly 5'10" because (1) she always wears 4-5 inch heels; and (2) she looked several inches shorter than Michelle Obama (who is 5'10"-5'11") when they met. Still, she looks great.

When I think of a facially beautiful person I think of Mila Kunis or Cheryl Cole. Kate MIGHT be good-looking for UK standards, but where I live she would be seen as "average". She has very british features, which are usually not seen as attractive on a woman (such as very thin lips). I am entitled to my own opinion, no?

Ive just watched BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2012 and she was stood next to David Beckham. She looked about 1.5 - 2 inches taller than him.

when she was standing with ennis (who says 5ft 5) she didn't look 5 inches taller though, although they both quite big heels so she may indeed be near 5ft 9.

I think if she was like 5'10 with those LK Bennet(11 cm) shoes she would have been much closer to William who is listed here at 6'3 .She looks like she is 185-186 with those shoes so 5ft.8.5 seems just the right height
Shaun said on 27/Sep/12
That picture shows you just how light of frame Beckham is. He looks very small boned next to William I read he was 150 pounds at one point. I think though nowadays 155-160 pounds would be more accurate as I think he seems a little fuller than he was a few years back. William I'd say is in my weight range, 14 stone and change maybe. I'm exactly 200 pounds at the moment, I got my weight down to 190 earlier in the year after heavy exercising and dieting but I've been around 14st for a while now, I was too bulky at over 15 st a few years back.

If beckham is at least 181cm than william is 190cm easy. Kate just looks taller than 174cm. If michelle obama said she was 182cm and kate is about 6-7cm shortee. She is about 5 foot 9.

I agree with Lee, Kate's height is exaggerated. Princess Diana was 5'10" but never wore more than 2" shoes.

I am 5'8" tall (by measurement at the doctor) and when I recently wore 5" platform Louboutins to a wedding I was well over 6 feet; taller than the vast majority of people there. If I was a legit 5'10", I would easily be the same height as William. So, I think Kate's height is exaggerated; she's probably more my height, give or take a half inch. Plus compared to Michele Obama she's easily 2-3 inches shorter.

Yeah, knock an inch or maybe a smidge more off of any listed heel for how mcuh it will give. That's what I mean Samanta, if she was 5 ft 10 she'd be looking 6'1.5"-6'2" in such heels but in actuality looks more 5'11.5"-6' tops

The Stuart Weitzman wedge is about 5 inch heel, when she wears this wedge there isn't only 1inch difference between kate and will!

I don't think the height difference is 8 inches but it could be about 6. I think she's just below his eyeline level and he definitely has a longer than average head and upper head. 5 ft 9 would be a good estimate but nothing more.

I remember she said she was 5 foot 10 like dianna. 174cm seems to short for her. She has long legs and she definitely has to be close to 178cm. William is huge. I use to think he was 6 foot but after seeing him with his brother and kate, he could be close to 6 foot 3. Kate next to her sister pippa who is about 5 foot 4. There is a huge difference.

Is there any relation between height and shoe size?
Is it possible anybody wear shoe size 39 and 178cm height?!
Shaun said on 16/Sep/12
A legit 5'10 woman in big heels shouldn't look much shorter than a 6'3 guy. Nicole Kidman a legit 5'10.5" barely looked shorter than William in big heels. Its obvious Kate isn't near 5'10, but she doesn't look under 5'9" in those barefoot photos either.
Shaun said on 16/Sep/12
The majority of photos though show her struggling to reach 6 ft in heels which surely give 3-3.5 inches in height. I think that's why Rob has her at 5'8.5", not to mention the fact that Prince William could be 6'2.5" if measured on a stadiometer.

Rosie how can you be definite of a picture where you can't see their feet or ground level. The best photo we have is the one of them stood side by side barefoot at the top of the stairs with the taps and monks at the bottom in the link I provided. Everything about her frame screams 5 ft 9. The odd thing is that she wears huge heels and for some reason the height difference between her and William doesn't look that much more than normal. Is William a lift wearer LOL?

Her height is 174cm, this is her true height. She must be really tall. I like Kate Middleton. ;D

Finally we have a barefoot comparison next to William. Surprisingly she doesn't look under 5 ft 9, in fact she can look near 5 ft 10 in some photos. Looks pretty taller legitimately. Any thoughts Rob. Her headline seems to be above Williams eye level; sure he's got a huge long head but do you get at least a 5 ft 9 impression in these barefoot pics?
Editor Rob
yeah 5ft 9 might be more of an impression there

There is no doubt she is in the tall catergory for females. 5f8.5 female, is equivalent to 6f1.5-6f2. But 5f10 or 5f9 is to high for her. And she is @least 2" shorter then michelle obama(5f10).
Shaun said on 12/Sep/12
Perspective is extremely important in photography. look at the photo of her holding the purple bouquet, she looks like a 6'9" basketball player!! She also looks barely shorter than William in the first pic. But look at the majority of the photographs. She struggles to reach 6' in those big wedges/heels
Shaun said on 12/Sep/12
Jenna, never use beach photographs to judge height, seriously.
Shaun said on 12/Sep/12
She's nowhere near 5'10!

In huge wedges in the lower pictures and still struggling with looking six foot next to 6'3" William. If she was 5'10" trust me in those wedges she'd be barely shorter and Williams being a full 6'3" has even been questioned and could be 6'2.5". Personally I think he looks 6'3". Based on those wedges and her comparison to WIll about 3 inches shorter? she seems to reach a weak 6' in big heels. I'd put her more at 5'8"-5'8.5" range than 5'9"-5'10"

some says she's about 5'10"; which is which? ;)
kat said on 10/Sep/12
She is not more than 5'8". I am 5' 10"and tried on the very same "pop fit" zara jeans she wore to the olympics. They are way too short for me.
rosie said on 7/Sep/12
Here is Kate with 6'1" Aled Davies. She's wearing 5 inch heels.
He's 6'2" with shoes on. 5 inch heels don't give 5 inches in height, maybe 4 at the most. That means she's 5'9" or maybe even 5'10".

If she is 5ft 8 and wearing 4 inch heels she would'nt measure 6ft. 4 inch heels don't give 4 inches in height, maybe 2.5 at the most.

Exactly. If william is stil 4 inches taller than her it means that she's about 5'10". (69 inches + 2,5 inches = 71,5 inches with heels )
SAK said on 27/Aug/12
Selva says on 5/Aug/12 In her school days she stated she was 5'8". I will say she is about that possibly 5'7"... If she truly was a solid 5.8inches with her 4.5- 5.00 inches heel she would be the same as William but she clearly doesn't.
---------------------------------------
How exactly. If she wearing heels; that give 5" of added height (and we assume she is 5f8.5) then she bbecomes 6f1.5, and prince William is 6f3. So even such large would not make them equal in height. And William himself be wearing shoes which give anywhere between 0.5-1" added height.

I personally see her minimum 5f8, maybe 5f8.5./

She doesn't look that tall but it looks to me that she is about 173 cm
samanta said on 11/Aug/12
she is not more than 170-172. If you see her pics with team GB hockey, you can find that she is with 12-14 cm wedge is approximate equal to Ashleigh Ball (181cm) and Sally Walton (180 cm).
