    General News for the Cambridge Family 2: January 2015-March 2017

    In other news, this is an interesting tidbit about how Prince William has gotten his mini Aston Martin up and running so that Prince George will be able to enjoy it. Apparently James Viscount Severn (Sophia and Edward's son) has already been able to enjoy it. Prince George to inherit his...

    Diana and James Hewitt

    Diana's former body guard Ken Wharfe was in a sticky position in that his role was solely to protect the princess, and not step in when it came to the affair. If Diana wanted to spend the weekend with Hewitt, then it was his job to execute a security plan for it, not to say "really?" He also...

    Diana's Legacy: What is left or what will be left?

    Wow - I hadn't thought of it that way before. Incredible that Kate is just a year younger now than Diana was when she passed away. That really puts into perspective how young Diana was. Amazing that she was engaged to the Prince of Wales at 19 and it didn't seem to ruffle any feathers.

    Personal Royal Experiences

    When Prince William was in Vancouver with Prince Harry in the spring of 1998, I went downtown to their hotel in hopes of seeing them arrive or leave. I was in luck - I ended up having a short exchange with Tiggy Legge-Bourke who was very warm and William shook my hand. This was right after they...

    General News for the Cambridge Family 2: January 2015-March 2017

    I recently saw Princess Madeleine being interviewed with her husband on and they revealed that they are now living in London. Their youngest child, Prince Nicolas, is about the same age as Princess Charlotte. I have to say that I hope that she and Kate reach out to each other if they haven't...

    Questions about British Styles and Titles 1: Ending 2022

    No, Camilla is absolutely technically Princess of Wales as the wife of the Prince of Wales, she is just not using the title officially out of respect for Diana. This is all part of a plan to win people over to camilla...calling her Princess of Wales right out of the gate would have caused an...

    Christening of Prince George of Cambridge: October 23, 2013

    True. I think the fact that the chapel is close to Prince Charles and Camilla's residence was probably a deciding factor, since it makes sense to have the post tea there. It's also somewhat "different" in that the last royal baby christened there was 25 years ago. We know William likes to be...

    The Duchess of Cambridge's Eveningwear Part 3: February 2012 - August 2012

    I agree - I'm guessing that she bought the dress and thought that the slightly african inspired beading details would be a nice nod to the movie. She looks nicely dressed to show respect. That dress that Guy Ritchie's girlfriend wore was NOT - so much side cleavage! I think that the belt was...

    2012 Olympic Games in London

    I agree. There's no way the queen would be in a movie herself. She follows her mum's approach- need to keep some mystique! Happy April fools...

    Duke and Duchess of Cambridge Current Events Thread 2: December 2011-April 2012

    I think zara and mike have a good reason in that they aren't full time working royals and can't necessarily take a Friday off their regular work schedules for a family event. It's nice that Kate and willam not spending time with he family, I just think Kate needs to step up a bit more in the...

    "The Queen Mother: Untold story of Elizabeth Bowes Lyon" by Lady Colin Campbell (2012

    This will probably just be a flash n the pan, but this is the sort of thing that happened and truth is stranger than fiction. Very unlikely but it would be rather hilarious if it were true. Maybe this explains lady Elizabeth's numerous refusals when prince Albert proposed. She was worriedly...

    It's a Girl for Autumn and Peter: Isla Elizabeth Phillips - March 29, 2012

    Elizabeth is a nice nod to the queen mum, too! Congratulations to them. Such a pretty name. Looking forward of the christening pictures already...
