future not the old folks. Queen Elizabeth is getting up in age, and when she's gone, it will be a different monarchy. When Diana married Charles, she revived a monarchy which was dying. Once she became engaged to Charles, she was swept up by the designers who were anxious to clothe he in their fashions and she bought style and interest back to the monarchy, like no one had before. Her new sense of style made her the most popular woman in the world. She revived England's tourist industry. She sold British Fashions. When she had William the clothing he wore would sell out in hours. People flocked to her appearances. The same happened with Kate, Williams wife, and it will happen with Meghan. And the country will fall in love with her like they did with Kate because like Kate, she is a real person and not a stuffy, snooty person trying desperately to hold on to a royal title whose time has passed.
