Swazi king to wed 14th wife
yahoo via AFP ^ | Sept. 17, 2013 | unk

The wedding only takes place once the fiancee falls pregnant. Dlamini will then become Mswati's 14th wife... Three wives left the household in recent years. The latest, Queen LaGija, fled the palace in 2012 claiming years of physical and emotional abuse. Another queen, LaDube, was reportedly abused after she was caught in bed with the justice minister, a close friend of the king. Mswati had kidnapped and married the queen when she was 16 in 2005.

It’s good to be king. Queen? Not so much.

Yeah, His Royal Highness King Blovia Pudge-Pudge I has quite the ego and quite the reputation or kidnapping teenagers and abusing them. One of other his chosen victims is in Britain trying to fight expulsion and being sent back to Swaziland.

I recall it was fashionable for blacks to claim lineage traced back to African royalty after Roots came out. Just remember, though, this guy is a king, too.

If I were the King, and that happened in my palace, I'd be upset, too. It's good to be King!

Sounds like the makings of a good reality show (My Fourteen Wives) to compete with the one show on cable about a guy with 4 wives.

Remember “Queen for a Day”? It should be updated for Obama. Perhaps entitled “Queen for Life”. A big future hit on BET and the RuPaul Show.
