@athousandyoung saidOnly Americans would be surprised or care when an inbred does something off the wall.
LOL first Harry now this it’s like Hollywood Blacks have a conspiracy to destroy the royal houses of Europe through the power of sheer sexiness
There are crazier nuggets in Hollywood that these two village idiots could have fallen for.
@jj-adams saidMissing from your OP is the fact that royal families and royal titles are no more relevant today than monocle's, sickles, and wooden plows. If she and her future husband want to research and promote the use of medicinal herbs and other ancient healing arts, then why not?

Do you acknowledge this fact or are you going to keep ignoring it?

@divegeester saidFor well over 1000 years the original purpose of Kings, Queens, and royal families were to be the head of the military, legal system and government of that country or kingdom. They didn't exist to generate tourist revenue by simply dressing up in tight, uncomfortable clothes so people can take photos of them.

@mchill saidCould it be that your both right and roles change, the Beefeaters used to drag traitors off to the tower but now they just pose for photos too. Until someone comes up with a good enough reason for dropping all that pomp and pageantry we’ll probably just keep it and keep focusing on the real powers in the land.
