Bookmakers William Hill have called 'No More Bets' and closed their betting on Prince William getting engaged to his long term girlfriend Kate Middleton after a recent flood of interest.William Hill were already odds on at 4/5 that Prince William would pop the question but even at these prohibitive odds punters were looking to place hundreds of pounds.William Hill are still prepared to offer odds on which year the royal wedding will take place and make 2008 their 5/4 favourite and 10/1 that the wedding takes place this year."The Royal engagement seems to be a question of when, not if, and we were giving away money by continuing to accept bets. When they do get engaged it will cost us a princely sum", said William Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.
