To think that Meghan could just walk herself down the aisle?

[FrizzyMcFrizzface]

Obviously she must be very sad, but this is her second marriage. Presumably her dad walked her down the aisle of her first one and the symbolism is all about handing her over from her ‘old’ family to the new.

Surely that doesn’t apply when you’ve been married before? My dad gave me away at my first wedding. I walked down the aisle on my own at my second because he couldn’t give me away, he’d already done that years before. It would have just been weird to have done it again IMO.

Backwards outdated sexist bollucks anyway.

One man ‘giving you away’ to another man.

FFS. Is this 2018?!

The entire commonwealth will be watching. No to mention all of the Americas

I don't think that's strictly true...

The wedding itself is at 7am East Coast US time, 4am West Coast time.

Somehow I don't think "all of the Americas" will be watching.

Charles Spencer . No way.

I wanted her to come down the aisle nave with the corgis...they loved her...but they died...

Someone said on an earlier thread that it could be her onscreen dad from suits who gives her away which I think would be brilliant!

But would never happen.

"The entire commonwealth will be watching."

Haha, I'm Down Under and I can tell you that isn't true! Hardly any talk of the wedding where I am, thank god. There have been a few news articles but other than a few older, die-hard royalists (a dying breed) most people just don't care.

Aw come on!
It doesn’t matter who she is or who she’s marrying, you can’t expect the poor cow to walk down the aisle on her Tod!?
You need a bit of support in these situations!

The entire commonwealth will be watching.

😂 😂 Hilarious. I won't be watching. I don't care either way about it but I'll be glad when it's over because of all the television programmes about Harry/Meghan, William/Kate, Diana, Charles, George/Mary and various other royals they've dredged up (programmes not royals) to screen ad nauseum on most of the channels here.

I'm in NZ but I was watching an Alan Davies video last night and coincidentally he was talking about how much the Australians hate the Queen. It was very funny. Exaggerated of course but I don't think quite all Aussies will be watching either. (I don't hate the Queen btw - have no opinion about her really.)

Of course a lot of people will watch just for the spectacle but the entire Commonwealth? Really? 😂

I don't think that's strictly true...

Gloriously understated SheGotBetteDavisEyes 😂

unlike my ramble

Take your point but just wanna say I bloody love the queen!
If ever there was a woman to put up with a load of old shite from her kids, husband and relatives, there’s your bird!
She’s a fucking diamond!
And no mistake guv,
Excepting your presence Ma’am

Why does it matter?
My mum got married twice, my grandad walked her down the aisle both times.
Why shouldn't a second time bride have the same opportunities?
The fact they are marrying again says it all, the first time wasn't right for them.

Ps does anyone actually give a shiny shite what Harry does?

"Ps does anyone actually give a shiny shite what Harry does?"

How about the entire Commonwealth!?

She also could have bought her own dress instead of making ( ok getting Harry to make) prince Charles pay for it. Her form of “feminism” is not one I recognise!

Maybe her first husband could do the hand over.

I actually think people are being pretty hard on her, as this is very much in the spotlight. Which family doesn't have problems? I think on the way to see the Queen, Harry appeared to be a bit glum, but all smiles on the way out.

I understand that for many people, it's they possibly feel that they've been deceived, but if you think about it, ok she's going to be part of the Royal family, did she need to release a statement saying, my family can be a bit batty, my Dad hates being in the limelight, I've done things I wish I'd done differently, please don't hate me. (Bearing in mind not one of us can claim to be perfect)

From the media it appears that Harry wanted autonomy for them as a couple to do things their way. So you can't really say KP should have done x/y/z as hindsight is all well and good.

People say Mum should have been there with her, helping with wedding plans. Realistically isn't the trend for couples to take charge of their day?

All that's left is to wish them all the best on Saturday & for the future. It'll certainly show an adapting monarchy depending who walks her down the aisle. Also wishing her Dad a speedy recovery.

So women who have the cheek to marry more than once should walk down the aisle alone, never mind what they personally want or choose to do?

Yeah alright. The caaahs should also wear sackcloth & ashes. To denote their status as non-new brides. It's at times like this I really wish the stocks were still an option so we could have a good time pelting such women with rotten fruit. Such a shame it can only be done metaphorically now🙄

Just as well. The noise of the cackling would be deafening and I do want to watch the wedding in relative peace on Saturday

I walked myself down the aisle - or should I say registry office. It wasn't too difficult. I've done a bit of walking in a straight line in my life.

But to be fair this us quite a big hoo-ha of an event. It would probably be good to have someone to get you down the aisle - given it's the road to a prison ( sorry but who'd want to be the ultimate trophy wife..., let's hope she's fertile, clothes horse). Any sensible - non social climber - person would bolt at the prospect.

And am I the only one who spotted fear in Harry's eyes? What has he done. He hardly knows her....

I hated the giving away aspect of top. My dad did a strange hand in hand thing with my dh too as if to literally hand me over and.. It was slightly aggressive because df was massively alpha male and he adored dh but felt he was was weak.

I think it's more of the literally supportive aspect... It would be amazing for her to do it alone. More so for her mum to shared the moment.. Why not!!

of course she can rember sadly harry parents wont be there father being James

Snide comment. Harry is the double of his grandfather.

she could op however last time she got married she wasent marrying into the British Royal family in s ceremony that was being broadcast world wide was she ?Thankfully the wedding is tomorrow and after a few days of endless bitchy threads about how she looked etc no one will care by next week
