Harry and Meghan fly off into the sunset (soon)

[PelicanPie]

New thread!

If I was asked to award prizes for best-dressed royal woman today I would have trouble deciding.

Sophie - by a whisker, I think.

Craig David singing now

Somehow this feels like a really sad day

I think they mostly look lovely - the women anyway, the men just look like blokes in suits. At least Hazza is wearing shoes!! Couldnt be doing with that capey thing on Megz dress, it would piss me right off forever flapping about and getting in the way.

Camilla curtseyed very nicely to HMQ on arrival - she and PC seem to be looking out for her.

Def seems awks between the brothers, PE was very polite and kind I thought.

I like Kate’s outfit best. Sophie is very close second though.

Is that because Craig David is singing Pelican?

Worfs I can see you disappearing into thin air by magic.

Partly but it just feels sad generally

I think the cape was bugging Meg too - she was fiddling with it as she walked down the aisle. She has balls - all the slagging off, and then the biggest smiles.

Awks really

O hai @drina27...

at least in that snuff-through-the-nose way grin

That sound is hard to describe but you’ve managed! It’s the aural equivalent of pfft.

Harry’s unhappiness just seems to hang there in the air for me . Perhaps I am being dramatic

Harry does look.... irritated and pensive

I wonder when the last time he saw William’s children was

Ooh!

A steel band!

Love it.

She’s got massive balls!

I feel bad for them all. The cameras are honed in on them just waiting for something to pounce on

Bound to happen I'm afraid, and Harry's doing himself no favours by fidgeting and looking bored. Neither was Charles with the token namastes ... doesn't he know the Commonwealth's rather more than India/SE Asia and that the Queen isn't Empress now?

Lovely service though, and stellar choices with all the music; no wonder the Queen's said to love this event

Steel band is brilliant

Sophie and Edward were the only ones to make a point of stopping to watch the Highland dancing - points for that IMO, I felt for those two women standing there in the freezing cold waiting for the royals to show and get busy with the dancing feet.

OTH Megz was sweet with the kids on the way up the aisle, waving and smiling to them - she obviously really likes children and young people. Which again makes it all the sadder.

Finally a smile from Harry

Commonwealth Day used to be called Empire Day

Actually also love the colour of the Queen’s outfit, especially with the happy lipstick colour and the pearls !

Surprising Bojo and Carrie look like they're really enjoying it all immensely!

Lip reading required.

Harry will be aware of what Archie will be missing out on as he has/had great relationships with all of his cousins.

I suppose Meghan doesn't understand that type of closeness, which is important in any family, but particularly unique if you're part of the Royal Family.

yolo
Yes I noticed that too. They must have been knackered at the end and no one even acknowledged them.
