I’m not so sure it’s “luck” to marry into that life.Sure, you get to be rich and famous…you get to travel…wear beautiful clothes.Your kids will be royal, go to great schools…and one will be the future monarch…Wait…. I was aiming for the down side…oh, yeah…you’re busy, overbooked and over-scheduled, for most of the rest of your life…always in the public eye, every move photographed.Every word you say, every bite of food, every shoe, every slight bulge…analysed, debated, criticised…You don’t feel well and want to sleep late, but you have to get up at dawn..put on a wool suit and heels, and full makeup…and be driven 75 miles to speak at the opening of the new frozen pea factory in some little town you’ve never been to….
And if that’s not enough to make you run…there are the hats!
I must agree with some here, the British system and those in charge, beats ours by a landslide! Only the Donald holds any interest at all for me at the moment!

Every time I hear something about British royalty, I thank God we won the Revolutionary War.

I would rather hear about Princess Catherine than Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump. Seriously, hasn’t the election been done yet?

I’d rather be hearing about British Royalty than any one of our politicians and the one who ought to fire himself, especially.

Wow, all these people “sick of hearing about” the current candidates for president, can’t stop talking about them. There’s irony.

Catherine, although a de facto princess does not wear the title as yet. The reigning monarch or Queen in this case must bestow it.

For a really good tutorial on how “royals” got their gigs, watch “Game Of Thrones”……….Augment it with"The Borgias" and “The Tudors”.
