I thought Carl Philip and Sophia lost their Royal titles? Am I remembering wrong?

I watched this movie by myself when I was 15 or so without telling my mom and wound up in her room at like 2 am because I was petrified. She was not pleased with me. My mom took me to see it in the theater as a double feature with Sleeping with the Enemy. I was 10. This pretty much sums up my childhood in a nutshell. I have seen neither all the way through.

I thought Carl Philip and Sophia lost their Royal titles? Am I remembering wrong? I thought they kept their title but their kids wouldn't have one. Or it wouldn't mean as much? Just Victoria's kids since she's next in line. Wait... that's the same family right?

I thought Carl Philip and Sophia lost their Royal titles? Am I remembering wrong? I was wondering too. Julian is a prince in the sense he was born to royals, but the kids don't have titles I don't think.

In this image released on the 31st March, one of the most important tiaras to appear to the market in recent years is pictured in Geneva, Switzerland. This natural pearl & diamond tiara has remained in the royal family of Italy for over 150 years, and will be offered in Sotheby's Geneva flagship Jewellery auction on 11th May. It can be virtually 'tried on' with a new filter available on Sotheby's & Sotheby's Jewels Instagram pages. The diamonds look like their floating. It looks magical and I love it. And the egg shaped pearls make it perfect to wear on Easter.

Sounds like a win

Speaking of the Queen. It’s going to be a quiet and weird Easter again.

Ok this kind of twisting of laws for royals is ridiculous and it's what sets people against the royal family. It's very "rules for thee but not for me." I like Kate and I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt that she went to the vigil for Sarah Everard because it genuinely struck a personal chord with her and reminded her of a time when she walked those same streets alone after dark. But if it was legal for her to attend the vigil because she was "working"*, then it should have been legal for the other people who visited too and were later manhandled and arrested. *why should that matter? Also, I thought KP said she did this on her own in an unofficial capacity. I think it's pretty clear to everyone with a brain that they knew she was coming so they purposely waited to shut the vigil down because they didn't want the bad optics of arresting the future queen or even suggesting that she shouldn't have been doing what she was doing. But then simple logic suggests they should have kept the vigil open for others to pay their respects as well with perhaps some police presence just to remind people to social distance and wear masks. *** The Duchess of Cambridge did not break the law by attending the vigil for Sarah Everard because ‘she was working’, Dame Cressida Dick said today, as she slammed politicians including Sadiq Khan who criticized her officers for arresting protesters. The Met Commissioner also revealed that she knew in advance that Kate was heading to Clapham Common to lay flowers – but admitted the officer in charge of policing the event did not. The Commissioner backed the royal’s trip to south-west London on March 13, despite saying she would have personally attended herself ‘if the gathering had been legal’. Asked if the Metropolitan Police knew about Kate’s visit to Clapham Common, Dame Cressida told the Today programme: ‘The Met did know, absolutely, but of course we take all sorts of precautions to make sure that we don’t unwittingly draw attention to visits like that.’ Asked if her visit was legal, the Met’s Commissioner replied: ‘I would imagine that, of course I have not asked her this question, but I think it’s worth looking at … just how strongly people felt, what she said about her attendance there…She’s in the course of her duties, she was working.’ She added: ‘At that point people had a whole series of potential reasonable excuses for being away from home, we didn’t all have them. I’ve picked out one that may apply to her but, let’s be clear, there was a very calm vigil to which she attended where lots and lots of people came." www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9421773/Cressida-Dick-insists-Kate-Middleton-did-not-break-law-going-Sarah-Everard-vigil.html

I guarantee she was "working" in the sense of we can't make this an official thing because it goes against our no politics whatever, but you need to go.
Or she truly went for herself, but I think if that was the case again she would have been more disguised

She went from the heart and just accidentally allowed the palace to confirm she picked the flowers herself at KP and the palace just happened to also leak that she sent the family a private letter of support. I think she probably was saddened but it keeps getting more and more obvious that it was a PR move.
Just like their train tour when people weren’t supposed to be traveling but it was okay because it was work- even though some of the places they traveled to opposed the “work.”

I thought the vigil was shut down because of a curfew, but the article says too many people showed up and they were no longer distancing, etc, like they were earlier in the day
Regardless it was a bad PR move, especially since they can't get their stories straight

The actual vigil had a start time (I think 6pm?)
Kate came and went before the official start time. She didn’t attend the Vigil they were trying to cancel/shut down. She showed up before and left before it started. Officially.

Lots of people congregated all day. The police didn’t like the idea of the vigil and canceled it officially. But people still showed up all day and into the scheduled time and that’s when they started aggressively arresting women who were just peacefully at a vigil.

This is just another clear example of the BRF trying to create a positive spin for Kate and looking to defend any negative press she might be receiving. Why are they so bad at PR? This whole thing was a mess to begin with. Now, they have all but admitted that it wasn't a surprise and was instead a planned visit to and likely they all tipped off the press (since we knew details immediately like where the flowers came from). It leaves me with a bad taste since this is a situation that was horrific and I don't like is being used in this way. Either make a stand or don't, but don't use it for your own gain.

This is my thoughts 100000% and of course Kate will get a pass because she can't turn them down because she knows her place.
