The choice to be 'celebrities', or indeed royal, is not one the couple can make.
By birth, and by marriage, the couple are royal, and the 'celebrity' part of their profile is created and controlled by the media and they can do nothing about it.
So I don;t think they are 'playing' anything - simply doing what they do, and accepting the nonsense of celebrity as an unfortunate byproduct of being in the Royal Family at this point in history.
