I’m in the US and can believe that it’s an entirely different viewpoint, as our populace seems to thrive on trashy reality tv and the circus that is our government. However, I can honestly say I know very few people who care about any of this, let alone have a strong opinion. I’ve yet to hear...

Doesn’t the use of a diplomatic passport require that she is in the US on behalf of her country? Or maybe royals don’t have a second “regular” passport for personal use? I have no idea if royals have a different distinction in their passports, but I find the topic very interesting.

Thank you! I’ve always wondered how these movements work!

How does it work for royals to move to a foreign country such as is the case here? Foreign spouses can apply for an immigrant visa but obviously she’s not in a position to become a citizen of the US, so she is required to have some other sort of visa to live here? Or is there some sort of...

I am partial to the name Arthur, it was my grandfather’s and is my son’s name, but I assumed they wouldn’t use it due to it being the name of Pippa’s son. I know there is no relation, but it’s still a close tie. That being said, I adore the name Archie! The photograph with the Queen and the DoE...

This article about the Duchesses was on the People website. No named sources, so take with a grain of salt. I took from it that there isn’t some big feud, but that they are different, strong women with different roles. Also that the natural evolution of marriage changes family dynamics and each...

I think it’s absolutely lovely Prince Charles will be escorting her. Ms. Markle did not create any of this drama and has not deserved the upheaval of the past few weeks. I think this is a nice way for the BRF to acknowledge that and send a clear message of support.

Thank you!

With the Dutch tradition of two different ceremonies, how did they handle the guest list? Was everyone invited to both ceremonies? Or was one ceremony family/close friends and the other open to the entire guest list?

Not to get too off topic, but I think the difference here is Argentina does not allow citizens to give up citizenship. US citizenship can be given up at any time.

They are darling! They just seem like such nice young ladies. I do wish they were not always dressed the same, though. I would love to see their "personalities" in fashion.

My deepest condolences to the family. I feel for Princess Mabel and their daughters, but my heart especially goes out to Princess Beatrix. As a mother who has buried a child, I know this is the worst kind of pain. I hope the family can find some peace in their memories down the road.

This might not be strictly on topic, but a question from some of the discussion... I understand the former royal family from Greece is related to the Danish monarchy and carry those royal titles, but also use their Greek titles. Pavlos is still referred to as Crown Prince, which would imply he...
