Wow. Was too busy wading through headlines about black people burning cities to even know she was expecting.

Mazel Tov!

LOL.

But you are not too far off. What would you guess is the name of the Minister for External Affairs [Europe] and International Development of the Scottish National Party?

MacDougal? McBride? Douglas? No, no, no.

"SNP’s Minister for External Affairs and International Development Humza Yousaf" writes Melanie Philips here.

Yousaf was the director of the Scottish Islamic Foundation which supported and hosted Islamic extremists.

They seem like a perfectly nice couple — made into absurdities by the institution of monarchy and the British class system that it props up.

Not sure why she is still widely know as Kate Middleton. Diana was never called Diana Spencer after the wedding. Not even after the divorce. She is the Duchess of Cambridge.

Interesting point. Kate was in the public eye for years and at the center of the off again / on again relationship with William. Diana was a bit of a surprise to the press and public, and the marriage to Charles occurred relatively quickly. I think a long time seeing and hearing “Kate Middleton” in the media may be the reason. Thoughts?

I often hear “Middleton” on these shores but what surprise me is that it was a British newspaper in this post that called her by her maiden name. After 4 years people should know who she is as D of C. Maybe it’s because it’s D of C rather than Princess Kate. D of C is perhaps a bit formal and faceless. Compare “D of C” to “Princess Diana”. I think that might explain it.

“Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, is ‘doing well’ after giving birth to her second child”

Who cares, just a bunch of inbred aristocrats. The world
should care less. Freddie Gray was a more legitimate
human being than these royal scum.
