It is a question that I have
wondered since 2012 when we witnessed the christening of
Princess Estelle in May. In 2013 came princess Leonore, and in 2015
Prince Nicolas. Recently it was Prince Oscar’s turn to receive
his first holy sacrament, and the feeling remains. What makes the
christenings of this royal house so appreciated by royal watchers
throughout the world? The Swedish Royal…
Why the press should be ashamed of themselves for publishing voyouristic Prince George pictures
1st June 2016
As we all know, the Duke and Duchess are
very protective over their children’s privacy, and so they should
be! As of late, Kensington Palace have issues many warnings to the
media about publishing photos of Prince George and Princess
Charlotte to protect their privacy…
“Will Her Majesty the Queen take part in
the EU referendum elections?” many people around the globe may
asking themselves. Well, first things first, let us briefly discuss
why the United Kingdom will hold a referendum election in June
23, 2016. What is a referendum…
John, let me begin by saying how much I
enjoy your show, Last Week Tonight. Your political satire is
absolutely hilarious. You are one of the best satirists in the
business, and with that comes a lot of power to influence the
discourse in the United States and abroad. We agree on many things,
such as how utterly asinine pennies have become (and nickels for
that matter). From Puerto Rican…
With the Invictus Games at Disney’s Wide
World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Florida, just under a month
away, we have yet to see much promotion or advertising of the event
here in the United States. Even at Walt Disney World, there are no
signs or advertisements on the…
Prince Harry recently concluded his first
trip to Nepal, where he visited a Gurkha camp, went trekking, and
met earthquake survivors. The tour, which started as a four day
trip in the capital of Kathmandu, was later extended by six days to
help rebuild a school, in an…
I never watch royal documentaries, ever!
In fact, the last documentary I watched which focused on The Royal
Family was on the occasion of The Duke of Edinburgh’s 90th birthday
back in 2011, so it seems fitting my next watch would celebrate Her
Majesty’s 90th birthday. The build up to the programme was immense.
All major news publications, both national and international,
talked about the…
I have a few pet peeves in life – people
who eat with their mouth open (or no table manners in general),
slow walkers in front of me, and when the Duchess of Cambridge gets
called ‘Kate Middleton’. While I fully understand that those who
are not royal…
Growing up in the shadow of a future
monarch must be hard. Firstly, while raised as a prince/princess,
it is a job that you may never fully fulfil. The chances of one day
being sovereign are very slim and society expects you to find a
career path to match their expectations…
On July 12th 1543, a rather low key royal
wedding took place. The groom was Henry VIII and his sixth wife was
Katherine Parr, a relatively unknown minor noblewoman who had risen
from daughter of a knight to Queen of England in thirty years. The
woman who became a royal bride on that Julyday at Hampton Court was
also one of her country’s most interesting…
