Meghan gave out lots of hugs, this to Sophie who told Meghan she wants to be an actress too. This looks like the most awkward hug ever. That kid is not into it. Ehh I feel like a lot of kids are not great at hugs. My kids would also just stand there. But the smile and the fact that kids at these events have always been waiting forever to be there says to me that the girl is probably happy and excited.

Princess Madeleine (Sweden) has given birth to her third child, a girl. I can’t wait to find out the name.

Yes, we repeat "we hug bellys, not necks" in my house often.

I think if he said it to honor Diana then he should keep his promise. I think he never intended to keep it and now that it is sounds like the queen is slowing down he wants people to forget it ever happened.

I just can’t believe Harry got played. He, and all royals, have to have been on the lookout for fakes. He has to know what to look for, and he’s older now, so it’s not like he’s a 20 year old that got duped. She also doesn’t seem that good at the game. I don’t know. It’s weird.

I feel like Charles would only do this if William and Harry were on board. Or maybe he figures he will end up only being King for a short period of time so he just gives no fucks and will do whatever he wants.

This is one probably unpopular but I guess I don’t see the problem of Camilla being Queen. She’s married to Charles, Diana was never Queen it’s kind of meh to me. Camilla going By Princess of Wales would have been pretty yikes. I know people don’t like her because of the affair but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And I agree that he’s thinks his time will be short so who cares. But I also think it’s a bonehead move PR-wise.

I think it’s probable that they’re both getting what they want out of the relationship. He’s getting a hot girlfriend/wife and she’s getting more publicity and more money than she will ever need. I don’t know if you can really say he’s being duped.

I mean Meghan's supposedly not nice to nail staff. I don't know that that says anything about her relationship with Harry. Honestly I think most celebrities including royalty are not particularly nice to people they don't know. (Excluding a few exceptional exceptions like Tom Hanks).
So far she's been doing a great job with their engagements and I think they seem to love each other and enjoy each other's company.
I mean let's be real no one accidentally starts a relationship with a prince.

Because who is going to recognize Danish royalty? And why the fuck are they in Wisconsin? <----- not too much offense to Wisonconsonians

I'd put First Daughter movies on the same level. Just terrible but not bad background noise.

Not the usual royals we discuss but here is King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands flipping pancakes: And Queen Maxima making sandwiches: During a country wide volunteer day, they spent their day at an old age center.

Maxima is from Buenes Aires and her father was an important member of the government of Argentina who while not directly involved knew about and was present for the disappearance of 30,000 people opposed to the government of the time. It was a big deal in the Netherlands when they got married.

Lots of rumors that Meghan will be walking down the aisle in a custom Ralph and Russo wedding dress. If she does this I will be so excited. R&R make some of the most beautiful gowns and wedding dresses. Meghan is already a fan of the designers, she wore one of their dresses for the official engagement photos.
