I'm sure you've already seen it on every channel but in the case you have been living under a rock, Price William just proposed to his 'commoner' girlfriend Kate Middleton. Now what's so funny to me is how every media outlet keeps referring to her as a 'commoner'. I realize it just means that she doesn't already have a title but seriously folks, isn't there another name you can call the poor girl? l As if we live in the dark ages and they're marrying to form alliances between two countries? Pu-leez.
Enough about that...let's talk about something more fun. Oh, I know. That a-mazing rock!
Seriously - the commoner title is so laughable. Just a commoner...really?!? I know they aren't belittling her - but it sounds so archaic.
ReplyDeleteMaybe just call her a beautiful young woman - because that she is!!
I find the commoner thing so hilarious! Since I'm with a British guy, I ask him about these oddities sometimes, and this time, all he could do was shrug. I guess it's a media thing!
ReplyDeletePrincess' Di's old rock... and my favorite headline so far has been: "Unemployed English Girl to Wed Soldier from Welfare Family". (and yes, technically, the royal family is on welfare-the queen recently had to ask for gov. money to heat her palace).
ReplyDeleteDuchess- are you serious!!! OMG, I guess you would know better than anyone!
ReplyDeleteI'm a little embarrassed at how excited I am over this! But the whole commoner thing is definitely ridiculous and she could be the future queen someday!
ReplyDeleteha, indeed, I am most serious. Have a look at this link: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/queen-tried-to-use-state-poverty-fund-to-heat-buckingham-palace-2088179.html
ReplyDeletep.s. who would have thought that Harry would have turned out to be the most attractive one?
Dutchess- I agree! :)
ReplyDeleteSeriously amazing, Love it! I think it's so cute, even if that does make me a bit of a lame romantic! x
