Today monarchists, Royal Family obsessives and these guys started clearing space in the display cabinet for another commemorative plate because Prince William and Kate Middleton got engaged. Immediately after the official announcement the newly engaged couple had to do the protocol heir-to-the-throne Q & A session featuring heaps of awkward questions:
The engagement ring Wills gave Ms Middleton is the same one Prince Charles gave Diana – consisting of an 18-carat oval sapphire surrounded by 14 diamonds, leading superstitious types to question whether this would be bad luck considering Princess Di’s tragic demise. Other people who are not a weirdo are ok with it. Kate’s wedding dress will become an iconic fashion moment of the ages – Diana’s meringue confection, for example, is super memorable (although it has aged poorly).
