Screen ‘Kate’ who’s marrying her own ‘Wills’
ARISTOCRATIC actress Lady Alice St Clair-Erskine, who was cast as Kate Middleton in the 2011 television drama William & Catherine: A Royal Romance, doesn’t just share the Duchess’s looks.
I hear Lady Alice, daughter of the Earl and Countess of Rosslyn, is to marry her own Norfolk landowner.
While the Duke of Cambridge has Anmer Hall on the Queen’s Sandringham estate, Lady Alice, 33, has become engaged to solicitor Oscar Jamieson, 36, whose father, Andrew, owns Drove Orchards ten miles away in Thorham.
‘Everyone’s joking about their parallel lives,’ a friend tells me.
Lady Alice has now quit acting to concentrate on running the London Original Print Fair. And she has a fascinating sideline as a poet.
Using the alter ego Alan Moon, she publishes poetry read seductively online. One ode’s opening lines say: ‘A woman, a thin-lined drawn-out thought of a woman. Lips that kiss like the French Riviera.’
