To think it's unfair on HRH Catherine

[InLoveWithLizML]

It's been on my mind that a spring wedding is one way to make sure all eyes are on you and not Catherine. As depending on the date chosen she'll either be extremely heavily pregnant or possibly postpartum, she's never really rushed to the celeb demands of having your pre-pregnancy body in 4 weeks. If she has HG that lasts till term she really won't enjoy the day, I remember one heavily pregnant Mum when I got married going home in the end to rest she was struggling that much.

It'll be a dilemma for William as he'll want to celebrate the day, as will Catherine. If she's heavily pregnant or post partum he got really overly drink, I think I'm right in thinking Catherine BF so she can't drink and needs somewhere private to feed. (Plus possibly an outfit that allows for ease of feeding)

I'm wondering if there's already an announcement due for once their married, that Harry & Meghan are expecting, thus the 4/5 month turn around if not quicker, going by my interpretations of Spring. It seems rather rushed.

I understand given Meghan's age it's now or never, I just feel it's a bit harsh on Catherine, as in any scenario she'll not overly get to celebrate the day. She's always been close to Harry, so I assume she'd want to take part and have a time similar to her wedding, partying till the small hours.

A summer wedding would give Catherine & William the luxury of not worrying if baby will arrive imminently, or that Catherine will be postpartum, knackered and really not feel like a part of the day.

I know it's Harry & Meghan's big day, but as I've said he's always been close to his brother and SIL. I honestly thought any announcement would be with the third pregnancy in mind.

It's a bit different with the royal family, rather than your gran though, as the queen is the defender of the faith. I don't think she should be, in this day and age, but that's another question. It doesn't make it easy for someone marrying her grandson to go "nah- not bothered" on the subject of religion, though.

Shame on you x2boys for suggesting a mere bunch of flowers could possibly recompenese years of psychological and emotional pain I mean really?!

granny you tell that selfish cow that nothing less than a repeat wedding - you could be gracious and settle for a wedding vow renewal - during which you are the specially invited guest of honour, during which your self-sacrificing act of generosity is acknowledged via loud speaker with speeches given by all in attendence giving testimony to your frankly amazing sacrifice, will do. Your house should also be festooned in balloons with a 'Thank you' banner across it. If she doesn't agree to this then I'd seriously consider taking a civil claim. Remember your worth!

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic. I would never expect the same rules to apply to a royal as to an ordinary person.

Why are the royal family so keen to highlight that she is "protestant" today?

She went to a Catholic school - I know that doesn't make you a catholic but clearly there must be some catholic background in her family?

To think it's unfair on HRH Catherine

ffs.

Just reading that title made me become a little bit more republican.

Because that's her actual name...

I believe Meghan's actual name is Rachel. But we are all pretending it is Meghan because that is what she wants to be called.

Megan.

It's really snide the way everyone keeps misspelling it on purpose to make a snotty point.

She can go by her middle name if she wants to. Many people do. A middle name is still a "real" name.

She identifies as Meghan. So that's that.

Are you for real?

I agree OP.

And if Wills is best-man, he'll be sitting on the top table and Kate won't have anyone to help her with the kids! Juggling two young toddlers and a newborn/ heavily pregnant won't be easy.

They've really not thought it through, poor Kate

I wondered if she is being baptised and confirmed, because of the possibility of her and Harry being godparents for the new baby.

its not at all snide Battelax - Meghan is how she spells her name.

It's really snide the way everyone keeps misspelling it on purpose to make a snotty point.

it’s got a H in it.

Sick of it already.

Why should she just be able to become a British citizen when others who marry British citizens are denied that?

How come, when she is a divorcee they can marry in a Church of England church? Charles and Camilla were not allowed to marry at St George’s Chapel - they were in exactly the same circumstances : he was not married, she was a divorcee who had been married to a Catholic.

Surely if she was married in a Catholc church previously and attended a catholic school she has to have been baptised previously. It’s a ridiculous thing to do - suddenly be confirmed and baptised into a church you have shown no interest in.

I hope it is not televised. I am writing in for my bit of the license fee to be kept out of it if it is.

We should be a Republic now things have become so ridiculous, and these two should bugger off to a life in Hello

My sister got married on the day I gave birth

We all survived

I really think they are capable of organising their lives without the op’s assistance

She identifies as Meghan so that’s it

Good God - you’ll be telling us she identifies as cis next with her being such a feminist.

It is all just utter shite - a wedding between a divorced 4th rate actress and self-publicist and a man who has been born into utter privilege. People will be expected to call her HRH and curtsey to her. The Church of England is suddenly prepared to baptise, confirm and marry her. Hypocrisy at its finest.

we are all pretending it is Meghan because that is what she wants to be called.

What the fuck? Many people use their middle names as the one they are known by day to day. Only rude twats make an issue of that.

I think marrying a royal makes you an exception to the rules.

Don't envy the scrutiny Late will be under to look good and then if she does all the bitching about how its because she doeabt parent her kids, just delivers them and hands them over to the minions. However if I can leave a 5 week old baby on NICU to travel across the city to be my sisters mood of honor and look reasonable in the photos, I imagine Kate will do just fine

I like how you think that no one in the actual wedding party considers any of this.

Why should she just be able to become a British citizen when others who marry British citizens are denied that? How come, when she is a divorcee they can marry in a Church of England church? Charles and Camilla were not allowed to marry at St George’s Chapel.....

Why this, why that, how come the other. The answer to all of these questions is that these two can do what they like because they don't matter any more. There are three heirs and one 'spare' already in front of Harry now so he will be excused from any rules that apply to a 'potential future king'.

Don't envy the scrutiny Kate will be under to look good and then if she does all the bitching about how its because she doesn't parent her kids, just delivers them and hands them over to the minions. However if I can leave a 5 week old baby on NICU to travel across the city to be my sisters maid of honor and look reasonable in the photos, I imagine Kate will do just fine

I hope it is not televised. I am writing in for my bit of the license fee to be kept out of it if it is.

Lulu, you crack on and write in to ask for your 40 pence (= 1 day's worth of licence fee) back. Good use of your time, I'm sure.

I will be busy composing my letter this evening.
