Thank you for replying. The responses were very nice and I appreciate that. I guess that you are right about Princess Angela being quiet. I know that she isn't involved in any scandals which is quite refreshing. However, I can't help but to feel the way I do. Princess Angela is a woman with class and it is great to see a woman of African ancestry in a reigning European dynasty. It is unfortunate that interracial marriages have been almost non-existent in the royal families...especially among the well-known. When I first seen a photo of Princess Angela in a copy of Jet Magazine leaving the church with her new husband on her wedding day in 2000; I was completely ''blown away'' because I have never seen that before. Now I know that love was DEFINITELY in the equation for this couple. I am not discounting that. But to see that picture and know that a black woman can marry a prince; brought tears...yes tears to my eyes. I see it as hope for young little black girls that it may someday happen for them. Anyway, it was wonderful to see.

What was even more touching was the obvious acceptance from the Prince's parents and family of this woman. I am sorry, but I can't help but to be amazed.
