She has such terrible morning sickness. And she is 35.

My mom was a "royal watcher" and would have been over the moon at this news, had she still been with us.

I think we're so depressed, that we are vicariously enjoying this.

They seem to be decent people. Compared to Trump, they are saints.

King Harold III would have been an entertaining king. With hopefully a better outcome than King Harold II.

Ah, well.

Harry has it made. Easy life without all the pointless ceremonies, and he has more freedom to marry.

With hopefully a better outcome than King Harold II.


Mind blown. That moment when you realize it's been about 1000 years since a Harold sat the throne of England.

and an easy labour and delivery.

I hope she's not plagued by hyperemesis gravidarum again. That's just awful.
