The royal wedding who cares.(Maybe Meghan)(Lovers of Royal Wedding thread)

Mutant z

I have seen lots of ads about the upcoming royal wedding of Harry and Meghan and i really couldn't care less i dont know why so many Irish people have such a fascination with the British royal family. People get married all the time i dont see this one as being any different just because it happens to involves royals who cares they are just people like everyone else at the end of the day but all i hear is never ending fawning over it. I didnt watch William and Kates wedding and i sure as hell wont be watching this one either because i have far better things to be doing.

Hmmm... there are some rumours flying around about Andrew. If they are true, it is unlikely there will be another marriage in his future, if you know what I mean.

But shur, who knows... It all beats Mexican soaps anyway!

There were also rumours of him being friendly with Jeffrey Epstein and getting in to various spots of bother of a sexual nature. You're right though, they are like a real life soap

I love Fergie. I was glad she was invited.

There was the thing that she offered access to Prince Andrew for money.

But that was set up by a Tabloid reporter. Pretending he was a Sheikh willing to invest loads of money, and then asked her would he be able to meet Andrew.

Of course the Tabloid were going for the story to set her up and make her look bad. So I don't really care.

She always comes across as funny, lovely and genuine to me.

Look up Boris Becker's daughter Anna Ermakova.

She looks white though. I would not have known she was mixed race unless told.

Bit off topic, but its not even an hours drive from the centre of London, its no way near 100miles. Just beyond the M25, and right under the Heathrow flight path depending on the approach..

Her is a set of mixed race twins from the uk. Their father is white and their mother is black/white, so roughly the same mix as Harry and Meghan.

Red hair is recessive. It requires both parents to carry the gene in order for the child to have a 25% chance of becoming a red head. So it depends on her being a carrier since he clearly is.

It's funny where the red gene can pop up. One of Jessica Alba's daughters looks mexican and the other is a white red head!

So you think Diana had a Harry by someone else. She was a bit wild, like that time she attacked Charles with a bottle

he would have made a good Bond

Ascot? Yeah thats beside Windsor. Epsom? Within the M25.

No, Windsor racecourse itself! It's much more low profile than Ascot or Epsom and they mainly hold evening meetings there in the summer, usually on midweek days.

I believe it's fairly close to the castle and is also known as 'Royal Windsor'.

Yes, I have no doubt you were.

I expect plenty of sad, bitter little republicans were as well, safe behind your keyboards of course.

If people could let one go once in a while - that would be great.

P.S - Honestly, find something better to do than cry about some event that you claim you don't care and that you wont watch it.

The law changed in 2013 that only the six in line to the throne need permission, so he still needed permission. Another baby from Kate would make him 7th in line so he wouldn't need permission to marry or divorce from her Maj.

RTE giving false information so yesterday haha #firetheresearcher

Yes her husband.

Philip had a tinge of red in the beard he briefly grew while on naval service, plus Anne and Andrew were reddish-brown, so Charles is likely a carrier.

Ms Markle is probably the maximum amount of blackness at the minimum distance from the succession tolerable for the royal family. If you knew nothing about her background you'd probably guess she is hispanic or perhaps from the Maghreb or Levant.
That she is the female and the royal is male probably eases some of the qualms the public and the establishment might have about the marriage - if the first in line to the throne was a princess and she arrived back from the States with some Wesley Snipes or Flavor Flav looking dude I've no doubt the reaction would be completely different.

this.

I really like Meghan and Harry and they seem really happy together but I don't like this whole fuss about her being from an afro-american background and the royal family being so tolerant these days.

Firstly, as Sabat pointed out, she's very lightly skinned, you wouldn't think she has an afro-american parent. Additionally, she wears her hair always straight ( I ask myself, why..?). When I first saw her, I actually thought she has some hispanic background.

So for me, all this tolerance is completely hypocritical seeing the things Sabat pointed out.

Yeah and it'd be a different thing if she was dark-skinned and had an afro or braided hair or really embraced her black heritage more than her white heritage but that's very much not the case. She's culturally and aesthetically white, to all intents and purposes.

We don't know whether she embraces her black heritage from a cultural point of view less than her white. I would actually question this because she's doing a lot of charity work in Africa.

But from her looks, from my point of view, she's not standing by her african heritage. Ok, she's obviously lightly skinned, but why she's not wearing an afro, even from time to time? that makes herself a bit hypocritical too, I think. The gospel choire at the wedding, the black bishop with his sermon...and herself??

I really liked her mother for wearing her normal afro hair at the wedding. she actually looked like no hairdresser touched it, she looked like she came straight from the garden or housework.
really liked it.

Didn't like the dress!

Would you not try to be more white in a racist world?
Even Beyonces father says she is as famous as she is because she whitened her looks. That the public would not have accepted her being really black.
When I was in Indonesia and in India, they all use whitening creams.
Beyonce and most famous black women chemically straighten their hair. It is the only way that you can properly straighten an afro. Meghan has done the same.

Racism is still everywhere.

Has she got an Afro?
She didn't even as a kid as far as I've seen.

meeeeh

Oh for god sake. Couple of white (women) demanding how a mixed race woman should look not to let her side down. What about those here, are you embracing your Irish roots and not using fake tan? Do you comment on every other Irish woman who uses fake tan, how she should be embracing her celtic heritage?

She had a big afro.

She definitely did away with alot of her African American features, but to be honest so would I, in the world it as it stands today.

I met the sweetest girl in Madrid, and she told me that she went around to her friend's housez and the friend's Dad said, "why the f"ck did you bring a (n word) into this house".

If it means being less attacked, I would change my features too.

good points.

but then, you don't fight racism and suppression if you trying to be like the suppressors and appeal them.

change will only happen if you fighting racism with who you are including standing by your characteristic looks.

and it woud be actually easy for famious folks like Beyonce and now Meghan to start with it.

Appledreams15

She (and Harry) will probably do alot for black people anyway.

And, I hope, for women. She's a strong woman, and a feminist.

The Royal family is a big platform to speak from.

If we could get rid of racism and sexism, imagine what the world will be like.
