Prince Andrew, Who Is Not An Admiral, Wants To Wear An Admiral’s Uniform To Prince Philip’s Funeral
Prince Philip’s funeral is scheduled to happen this Saturday, which means if you’re one of the 30 people with an invite, you’ve got exactly three days to decide on what you’re going to wear. Black is traditional, although I’m sure Queen Elizabeth would find it acceptable if you showed up in emerald green, in honor of the logo on Philip’s favorite motorcoach. But according to sources, Prince Andrew is demanding he shows up at his dad’s funeral with an outfit from the house of Gilbert and Sullivan. Andy doesn’t currently hold the highest naval rank of Admiral, he never did hold that rank. And yet, Prince Andrew allegedly really, really wants an H.M.S. Pinafore moment on Saturday. As if that wasn’t laughable enough, sources are also saying that Andrew believes this could be the start of his big comeback into public life.
Prince Philip Has Died At 99
Well, it’s the end of an era and (prepare for me to sound like I’m a British royal historian) a chapter of the British monarchy has closed. Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, who I thought would be busting moves and laying it down at his big 100th birthday party in June, died this morning at Windsor Castle at 99.
The Queen Made Her First Public Appearance In Nearly Five Months
It has been a wild few months for the Royals. There was the Oprah interview with Prince Harry and Megan Markle, 99-year-old Prince Philip’s hospitalization, and the pervy Prince Andrew perv scandal hasn’t exactly gone away. And we haven’t seen The Queen out and about since last year. But today she dressed up in Easter green, applied her stiff upper lip, and made her first public appearance of 2021. She visited the CQGC Airforce Memorial in Surrey to mark the Centenary of the Royal Australian Air Force. And, no, this vaccinated 94-year-old didn’t wear a matching green mask, but apparently, it was a socially distanced outdoor event.
Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Really Did Tell All During Their CBS Interview With Oprah
Last month, when writing about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s interview with Oprah Winfrey for CBS, I joked that the Royal Family didn’t have to stress, because the biggest, most exclusive revelation to come out of that no-holds-barred interview would probably be about latte preference. Much to the chagrin of the Royal Family and their die-hard fans, Oprah’s interview aired last night. And the reality of the situation is that today I’m on hold with my doctor discussing pain management for muscle strain. Because much like Oprah, my jaw was dropped for the entire 2-hour interview. Just call them the Duke and Duchess of Sussexposing The Firm.
Prince William Is Reportedly “Sad And Shocked” About Prince Harry’s Exit Statement
Last week, the thing we all saw coming came at us when Buckingham Palace confirmed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were officially never returning to their roles within the Royal Family. Harry and Meghan will continue with their roles as multi-millionaire content creators for Netflix and Spotify and whoever else wants to throw money at Queen Elizabeth’s most misdirected source of descendant disappointment. The statement about Harry and Meghan’s permanent exit was made by Buckingham Palace. Harry and Meghan issued a response, the tone of which some people have taken as a wee bit petty. Prince William is apparently one of them, and he’s just simply horrified, disgusted, and downright aghast by Harry’s undignified behavior.
Prince Philip Was Taken To The Hospital As A Precaution
Prince Philip has been taken to a London hospital as a precaution after feeling unwell. Now, the Duke of Edinburgh is 99 years old (and turning 100 on June 10 [Geminiii]), so I can’t imagine his default setting is bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. But clearly he was feeling shitty enough that it was cause for concern. And no, a source has confirmed it’s not COVID-19 related. Dude already got the first round of the vaccine with wifey Queen Elizabeth last month.
