But what about the prince? One source maintains that Princess Diana’s mother, Frances Shand Kydd, was Jewish (born Frances Ruth Burke Roche—a Rothschild). If that's the case then Princess Diana and both her sons would be Jews.
The London Daily Mail quotes sources that Diana was conceived during her mother’s affair with the Jewish banker tycoon Sir James Goldsmith (originally Goldschmidt). The report says that Frances was estranged from her husband, Earl Spencer (Viscount Althorp), and had an affair with Sir James Goldsmith just at the time that Diana was conceived. Strengthening the case, a report points to striking resemblances between Princess Diana and Sir James Goldsmith’s other three children, Zak, Ben, and Jemima Goldsmith.
If that's true then Diana would be Jewish with a Jewish mother (Frances Ruth Burke Roche—AKA Rothschild) AND a Jewish father (Sir James Goldsmith). In turn William, the future King of England, would be a Jew.
Chabad of Buckingham Palace, anyone??

Kate is not Jewish.
All these rumours stem from the fact that Sir James Goldsmith was Jewish, but he married out several times.
Kate's mother is from the Goldsmith family.
The royal couple apparently wanted a ketubah:

Anyway to investigate the claims for veracity?
Perhaps a Jew, but then Di would be a mamzeras, and all her kids mamzers... Just like we think of the English..
The case described would not make her a mamzeret at all. She was married to a non-Jew, which is not valid kiddushin, and therefore there is no issur of eshet ish. Mamzerut occurs only when a child is conceived through relations which are issur karet.
When the Royal Wedding uniting Kate Middleton and Prince William was announced, genealogy sleuths got to work. At first, the buzz indicated that Kate’s mother, Carole Goldsmith (maiden name), had Jewish ancestry. If Carole Goldsmith were Jewish then, according to Jewish law, her daughter Kate Middleton would be considered Jewish — and could become the first Jewish Queen (Consort) of England. But alas, investigators still believing that there was a Jewish heritage in Kate’s lineage found that the last five generations of her family were married in churches. Of course, that doesn’t rule out that some may have been secret Jews, which was true for many Jews during the Inquisition. Other sources still suspect Jewish lineage for Kate. And according to an Orthodox Sephardic Rabbi in Israel, both parents of Kate’s mother were Jewish. So the question of Jew or not a Jew for Kate is still open.
But wait, the plot thickens. Could Princess Diana, William’s mother, have been Jewish? One source maintains that Princess Diana’s mother, Frances Shand Kydd, was Jewish — born Frances Ruth Burke Roche, a Rothschild.
If factual, that would be sufficient for Princess Diana to be certified Jewish, as well as her son, William, the future King of England. Another investigation of ancestry details a strong Davidic connection for Frances and her descendents
Other intriguing bits of “evidence” and speculation have been cited in the London Daily Mail, which quotes sources that claim that Diana was conceived during her mother’s affair with the Jewish banker tycoon Sir James Goldsmith (originally Goldschmidt and no apparent relationship to Carole Goldsmith). The report says that Frances was estranged from her husband, Earl Spencer (Viscount Althorp), and had an affair with Sir James Goldsmith just at the time that Diana was conceived. Strengthening the case, a report points to striking resemblances between Princess Diana and Sir James Goldsmith’s other three children, Zak, Ben and Jemima Goldsmith.
If these tidings are true then Diana would be thoroughly Jewish with a Jewish mother (Frances Ruth Burke Roche aka Rothschild) and a Jewish father (Sir James Goldsmith). In turn William, the future King of England, would have deep Jewish roots.
What a myseh (story). Sholem Aleichem and Isaac Bashevis Singer couldn’t have told it better.
