Royal wedding? Didn’t we literally FIGHT A WAR to Declare our Independence from bowing and scraping before the noblesse oblige of royal pomp and circumstance?
The Windsor family has come a long way since their ostracizing of Wallis Simpson, the last American divorcée to join their family.
And the children of Diana, who was also treated pretty shabbily, have blossomed into caring, compassionate adults like their Mom.
But the fact remains that the ONLY thing they are famous for is that they were born into a mythology that exalts them based on a “royal” bloodline that decrees superior rank based only on the circumstances of their birth, not any actual achievement.
