I felt the same way watching the royal wedding hysteria initially. I do actually feel sorry for all involved. A naive young woman entering what turns out to be a loveless marriage into a dysfunctional family in view oif all the world's media 24/7.
This is why they should abolish the monarchy or turn them more background-ish, ala the cycling royals of Holland, or the Scandinavian royals who were denied permission to let the royal limosine doublepark while picking up palace drycleaning on the grounds that 'if we let the royals do it then everyone else will want to'.
Ojh ye, and Prince Phillip should be permanently gagged.
Didn't that same naive young woman try to kill her step mother by pushing her down a flight of stairs?
