What would the Duchess of Cambridge make of that tiara? Kate's cousin Katrina Darling wears a bling crown (and not much else) at party to celebrate Playboy cover

She only discovered last year that she's distantly related to Kate Middleton and has never met her famous cousin. But thanks to Katrina Darling's Royal connection, she's now become a Playboy cover girl.
The burlesque dancer was paid a six figure figure sum to strip off for the adult magazine and celebrated the edition going on sale this week with a special performance in New York.
At the party at Demi Monde Club, the 22-year-old from Sunderland donned a slinky silver dress and glittery tiara in a somewhat gaudy homage to the Statue of Liberty.

Her very bling crown is unlike anything the Duchess of Cambridge is likely to be seen in when she becomes Queen when her husband William takes the throne.

 

After showing off her fire-eating skills, Darling then disrobed to reveal silver lingerie and then stripped off even further till she had nothing but a thong and nipple tassles to cover her modesty.
The former employee of Barclays bank moved her act to New York after discovering she's the Duchess of Cambridge's second cousin once removed (Miss Darling’s grandmother is sister to the duchess’s great grandfather Thomas Harrison).

Darling has previously capitalised on her Royal link by doing a burlesque song and dance routine to God Save the Queen during the monarch's diamond jubilee.
For last night's show, she danced to the rock song American Woman in a further tribute to the country where she performed.
She appears on the cover of September's Playboy magazine where she she billed as a 'Royal beauty' and 'Britain's new burlesque Queen.' Inside the magazine she appears in an eight page spread including a sultry topless pose on a sheepskin rug.
Her performance at Demi Monde was to mark the magazine's release as it hit news stands this week.
While it's not known if the Duchess of Cambridge approves of her cousin's vocation, Prince Harry must be breathing a sign of relief that it's now Darling's naked pictures appearing on the internet instead of his own following his wild holiday in Vegas. 
The prince was condemned for his behaviour but has found sympathy with Darling who said she thought there was nothing wrong with his conduct.
'After seeing the images of Prince Harry naked online I was shocked that the public were surprised that there is a young man having fun, partying and being comfortable with his body,' she told E! News.

'He didn't choose to be a role model, he's human and living a life that most can only dream of,' she added.
Darling's cousin Pippa Middleton is in New York this week for meetings about her new book but is also yet to met her cousin who currently resides in the city.
