Royal Romances was a magazine collection from the news agents late 80s I think. So each one featured a different royal couple, some modern others from history.

@SenecaFalls Yes, it's at 11am.

@CurlyWurlyTwirly Phillip will be 101 in 2022. While I've no doubt HM will live as long as her mum, I'm not sure he'll make it. I think when he goes we'll see a sharp decline in her, as often happens in couples who've been together as long as they have. Over 70 years! He really did marry extraordinarily well, considering his early life. I'm
sure there were more suitable grooms to be had but she was set on him! And given how handsome he was as a young man, who can blame her??

I suspect the Platinum Jubilee will be a low key affair.

Eugenie wedding mugs

Hope the link works - here's the first of the Eugenie wedding merchandise. Disappointed that there are no tea towels Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 29/09/2018 22:45

I think HM would prefer to keep them all lowkey as they remind her of losing her father too early.

@VanillaSugary How disappointing, those mugs are nowhere near as tacky as I thought they'd be!

Love this thread. Interested to see what Meghan wears to eug's wedding- her wedding outfits have been a bit hit and miss.
Will Beatrice do a Pippa and wear a sexy white gown?

NorthernLurker · 29/09/2018 23:33

I was hoping Eugenie would get her dress from Vivienne Westwood but not sure that's going to happen.

Dontfeellikeamillenial · 29/09/2018 23:33

It's this Friday? That rolled round quick.

MissLingoss · 29/09/2018 23:46

I think the weather forecast is good, so everyone will be able to show off their outfits as they arrive.

Jackietheduck · 30/09/2018 03:10

I’m guessing Sky News will have s live commentary?

Paradyning · 30/09/2018 05:02

This Morning will show the wedding!Oh the shame!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 30/09/2018 06:02

I LoVe the royal shop !
I am now lusting after a £95 purple velvet cushion with the royal coat of arms... I will have to settle for a tea caddy and biscuit tin!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 30/09/2018 06:07

This Morning will show the wedding!Oh the shame!

Grin @paradyning where did you hear that?

I don’t think Holly & Phil were quite the reverential tones Prince Andrew had in mind! Perhaps Fergie will be on the week after to chat about the wedding. Or perhaps Oprah will get the gig....

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 30/09/2018 06:16

@QueenOfTheAndals

I agree, I think the Queen will go into decline once Phillip has gone.
I wonder if she will even make it to 101 without him by her side.
Remember princess Margaret died in early 2002 and then the Queen Mother was gone by the Easter. Losing a child, however old would be a shock and I wonder if losing a long standing spouse is a similar shock.

Sorry; Morbid, but the passing of the Queen will be felt throughout the World.

Clionba · 30/09/2018 07:27

I read that it was going to be on "This Morning" Wink perhaps in the Express?

Clionba · 30/09/2018 07:31

VanillaSugary there are tea towels! They're £9.95! Quick!

QueenOfTheAndals · 30/09/2018 07:43

I love how the Express just makes shit up, or takes a normal wedding convention like women wearing hats and turns it into something Eugenie is forcing on Kate and Meghan!

QueenOfTheAndals · 30/09/2018 07:54

Oh no, Eugenie has to have a BUDGET version (caps theirs, not mine) of H&M's carriage ride, which makes me think they're nipping into Aldi afterwards. Surely 'blood princesses' don't budget!!!

Fascinating interview with Arthur Edwards, the sun’s photographer mainly about how Harry has changed.

There is a whole series of Yahoo Royal box interviews

I would love to read Arthur Edwards memoirs, but I don’t know if he would ever publish anything. William was even looking out for him in his engagement photo shoot; they all know him so well.

Ophelialovescats · 30/09/2018 08:49

Is Meghan's jealous, half mad, half sister really in London?

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 30/09/2018 08:52

Eugenie’s day 2 celebrations sound like a lot of fun.
Maybe there were people who couldn’t be fitted into the evening do, so they can all catch up the next day.

beanaseireann · 30/09/2018 09:05

Apparently so Ophelia
