To find the royal family fascinating part 2

[MagicKingdomDizzy]

Hello everyone, here's thread 2.

I'd be very grateful if someone could do a clicky link to the last one. Still can't figure it out.

Thanks!

I really hope they call it Sparkle.

Harry is supposed to be off to the Netherlands on the 8th. Hope the baby comes before then!

Me too Myimaginarycat

Well it was an entirely needless press release.

No it wasn't, the press were hounding the possible hospitals and had already started trying to set up camp outside the Lindo wing.

Sparkle Sussex does have a nice ring to it

@MarkleSparkle 😆

@ByeClaire Could even knock Allegra off the perch!

I’m like, we’re British, we don’t gush.

I thought you were Diana's Spencer ancestor @FannyWork

Diana's AMERICAN ancestor, I mean

Regrading the pram apparently an iCandy has been delivered.

Does anyone else, when reading FW’s username, say Fanny Work to themselves in an American accent as if it’s a character in Hamilton?
FannyWERK
Which, given the Americans use fanny to mean bottom, does indeed make the whole thing sound like twerking, to echo an earlier comment on the thread

Of course! I can't imagine her tweeting though. She's rather stern looking:-

But my goodness, the family resemblance! Frances especially.

OTOH, in the States, "Work that fanny" could well mean "Twerk!"

I wouldn't say it here, though

Omg one of descendants is the Hollywood actor Oliver Platt? Random and hilarious

When I saw the username FannyWork, it made me think of Wife Work, as in a man saying to his friend, "Hey! Why are you washing those dishes? Leave it for her - that's FannyWork!!" (only works if you think of the British Fanny of course).

Sorry to be discussing you like this FannyWork

But my goodness, the family resemblance!

It is striking, isn't it?

For all but we know, the DoS is working her fanny right now ...

Oliver Platt? OLIVER PLATT?!

This thread is the gift that keeps on giving...

Diana broke barriers (and started a tradition) when she omitted the tradition of saying she would "obey" her husband in her vows from the Book of Common Prayer. Instead, she promised to ''love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, in sickness and in health.'' Both Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle followed suit and kept "obey" out of their vows during their wedding ceremonies.

I always find it hilarious that Fergie was the one who DID promise to obey.

Ha ha I didn’t know that about Ferguson!

MM's pregnancy seems either interminable or the baby's already here.
PHis off to the Netherlands next week apparently.
I'm starting to think the Sussex's are playing some strange game regarding announcing anything about this baby perhaps they'll put out three month old baby pictures in a few weeks?
