Sir Elton looks like he’s gained some ‘post-baby’ weight. :)
Elton is looking a little puffy. Good morning, all!
Beckham is sooo easy on the eyes.
So, I was in Westminster Abbey last month, and it is kind of split in the middle, and if you are in the back, I don’t think you can see the high altar. I thought they might take down that partition, but it doesn’t look like it. I am not sure that most of the guests will be able to see the ceremony?
Got my English breakfast tea and off to fam room to join the grumpy crew-LOL! Loving this entire thing!!!!
They actually thought of that and have provided video monitors all over the Abbey. No one will miss a thing, no matter where they’re sitting.
Duke of Windsor did, Prince Michael of Kent did.
For the matter. Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester (who as senior member of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, is in the line of succession - 20th, right after 12yr old Master Arthur Chatto) married Birgitte van Deurs, daughter of Asger Henriksen and Vivian van Deurs. (Danish)
Lady Eva Snowball of Eden.
Socialite Tara Palmer-Tomkinson
It would make me mad to spend the entire day wearing a hat that way - heck, five minutes would probably do it - feeling like it would always be falling off or else constantly in your line of sight!
Morning Nutmeg. So happy the weather is holding. Shep is the last person I wanted to hear this morning so I tuned in to CNN and there's Cooper very much at home as he comments on fluff and style. Refuse to listen to Mika or Joe so I may just stay with Barbara Walter and Diane Sawyer and pray Tina Brown doesn't dominate.
Marrying non-British, it was done all the time earlier....Henry VIII’s first unfortunate wife was from Spain, Queen Mary married Philip from Spain, Queen Victoria’s husband was German(??) etc. I think they draw the line at American divorcees, though :)
Eeewww... Camilla. When Michelle O. didn’t get an invite I figured it was because livestock wasn’t permitted in the Abby. But if Camilla will be there, I must’ve been wrong about that.
I think that’s true!
I’m not sure if anyone can post the image from the bottom of this article, but there’s a layout of who’s sitting where in the Abbey and it was quite interesting and I think took into mind the sight issues. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1381795/Royal-wedding-Wills-Kate-Duke-Duchess-Cambridge.html
And the trees/greenery while softening things, I’m afraid is going to also add to the viewing challenges for some.
I’m stuck with Baba Wawa & Diane-we cut our cable to the bare minimum. LOL. The coverage seems decent so far.
I love that hat!!!!
