It’s customary for anyone who respects the crown to curtsy or bow to the Queen. For the royals, it’s a form of protocol that is as natural as a hug. In fact, whenever the Queen’s family greets her, it’s with a kiss on each cheek, followed by a short curtsy or bow of the head….
A relatively long time ago in a land not-so-far away (Home Counties. Lovely area), a commoner named Catherine Elizabeth Middleton was born at the Royal Berkshire Hospital. Fast-forward 34 years, andh ere we are, thanks to a clever mother and the kind of self-confidence people would trade their first-borns for. The Duchess of Cambridge’s wasn’t necessarily…
I’ll admit to buying a knock-off of THE engagement ring. The one with the 12-carat Ceylon sapphire, surrounded by 14 solitaire diamonds set in 18-carat white gold. The late Princess of Wales selected the ring – made by Garrard – from a tray of jewels when Prince Charles proposed in 1981. The Wales boys kept the ring,…

There were few opportunities for a chat on Christmas Day, as the rain came down upon royal well-wishers outside the Church of St. Mary Magdalene in Norfolk. William and Catherine (in…
Happy Christmas! Today, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge joined the royal family for Christmas Service at St. Mary Magdalene Church. Catherine wore a green belted coat with a festive hat, Aquatalia “Rhumba” boots and Kiki McDonough drop earrings, though to be a Christmas gift from William in 2011.
It was their first joint engagement since announcing plans to wed on November 16th, 2010. Prince William and the former Kate Middleton, in black court shoes, a Temperley London dress and a black blazer, attended The Christmas Spectacular In Aid Of Teenager Cancer Trust At The Thursford Collection in Norfolk. The December 18th engagement was just a…
