To not give a shit that Pippa Middleton is getting married today?

[MarmaladeSoup]

Seriously, why is the media getting so bloody worked up over this? The DM in particular is practically orgasming over every tiny little detail.

She's a nobody, she's not important. She's just some workshy, over privileged waste of space who's only claim to fame is being the Duchess of Camebridge's sister. But boy does she love to milk it. All the things she could have done with that fantastic education and she's done sweet FA!

AIBU to wish she'd go away and the press would stop going on about her? What is the point of her?

I had forgotten who she was. Who cares

I am not particularly interested but I will look at the photos like everyone else

I wouldn't say I've been following the proceedings slavishly, but I have read the odd thing.
I've found it quite fun. As someone who had a register office marriage with no guests in a £40 dress it's been quite interesting to read.
I shall also hold up my hand and say I'm green with envy, completely shallow and would have loved it if my husband to be was a squillionare hedge fund boss.

Plenty of people invite their BIL's brother who is also their friend to their wedding. You're hardly going to write the guest list and then say oh no we can't invite our friend, because he's related to my sisters husband

The circles that lot move in are pretty small really, it's silly to think their only link is Kate and Wills.

Who even invites their BIL's brother to their wedding?

Well you do if you're friends with them. Quite a lot of siblings are friends with their inlaws siblings if you have a close family. Kate & Pippa seem close as do William & Harry so I don't think that's unusual.

I'm curious to see what the wedding dress is like and I'm sure George and Charlotte will look very cute - that's about as far as my interest goes.

Couldn't care less - not even a minor royal.

I rather got the impression that all the media hype was a bit sarcastic and tongue in cheek, rather than genuine interest. Well that's how I read it.

I've just read a Maxist interpretation of the fetishisation of Pippa Middleton's backside. It was very interesting on the intersectionality of class, race, aspiration and Pippa's arse.

The fact Prince Harry is even invited says it all. Who even invites their BIL's brother to their wedding?

He's a family friend. I invited family friends to my wedding

If you're that worked up about it, there's always that thing called the off button on your television OP.

Yanbu. Harry's girlfriend is going. (She is a famous Hollywood actress). The Royals will have enough security there to protect a small country.

Haha I am with you OP

However I see the Royalists out in force .

The Royals will have enough security there to protect a small country

Well given there's going to be the future King Of England there (Wills) and also three others in line to the throne (Harry, George and Charlotte) I think the security is justified.

Why bother posting? Such needless frothing about someone you don't know.

I hope the photographers ignore her and obsess over someone else's arse!

If you're honestly not bothered about it, why give enough of a toss to get worked up about it and start a thread on it?

I cant stand Keith Lemon. No good reason, I just find him an annoying bellend so I dont watch his shows, or read any mags he may be in, or start any threads about him. Because I dont give a shiny shit

future King Of England Every time I see that phrase I get needlessly worked up.

I think op is entitled to question why our media get so excited about these things. It's not a royal wedding!

Why derxa ? He will be one day. If I said something wrong. Then apologies.

Will we even see any photos? Two direvt heirs to rhe throne will be attending. I cant imagine it will be open enough for paps.

It's not a royal wedding!

Well, no, but some of the members of the Royal Family are going to be there so it's only natural the media are going to take an interest. Bit like when they film Her Maj going to church at Christmas. It is what it is.

None of us are forced the watch the rolling news. Turn off / over (or keep scrolling if you're on your phone) if you're not interested.

Lol yes Trixibelle, that would teach her for upstaging her sister wouldn't it?

I can't understand why royalists would get so worked up over criticism of Pippa though, she's not a royal. In fact she's not even an aristo.

Nothing to see here, move on!

Sorry Away As a Scot I feel a tiny bit miffed that people use this title.
Meanwhile back to the triviality...

Wow, you don't give a shit so much you've started a thread just to prove it to us all

It's obviously got to you for some reason and therefore by trying to prove you don't give a shit, what you've actually done is prove that you do give a shit.
