As predicted - Daily Mail comment meltdown.![]()
She was not married in a Christian ceremony. And since 2000 they have allowed divorcees to remarry. (My grandfather was a Bishop in the Episcopal Church. Same rules.)
I figure it will be at St George's Chapel at Windsor.
I am very cynical (and cannot stand William and Kate), but I love Harry so I hope he's happy.
Do you have kids? Of course a woman can deliver a healthy baby after forty. Not the issue. It is when the woman is 60 and has a kid in college, and 70 with her first grandchild. That is when it catches up with you. I have grandchildren who are 18 & 20........I could keep after them much better than the two who are just 7 & 4. Different ballgame. My brother said it best to his 44 year old son and wife who just had their second "You should have had these kids way earlier....we (he and his wife) were much better babysitters then". Of course that won't be a problem for the Royals.Excuse me? Many many many women have healthy babies and healthy pregnancies after 40. If a woman is healthy, by all means, she can, and if she wants to, should have a baby after 40.
Also, if they have a baby while she's still American, TMZ says the kid gets automatic dual citizenship.
How can you "not stand" William & Kate or anybody you don't know? Did they pee in your Wheaties? Why do you "love" Harry but not William? Do you just develop a hate for people if you just don't like their face or whatever? I can understand "not my favorite royal" but can't stand?

They are lazy and entitled among many other things. I will not get into it with someone who thinks the sun shines out their royal butts, though.
I do not know them but I do know someone well who went to university with them. Stories are not flattering.
Oh, so women should have kids earlier for the grandparents and potential future grandchildren. Gotcha. I'm sorry, that is still no reason why a woman shouldn't have a baby after 40. And I'm sorry, but that's a crappy thing for your brother to say to his son. Did he and his wife offer to babysit? Because I'm sure they could say no. Maybe his son and his daughter-in-law weren't ready for kids earlier. I will reiterate, if the woman is healthy, there is on reason for her not to have a child after 40, regardless of what the grandparents think.Do you have kids?

Those Daily Mail comments are justand I wish I wasn't so busy at work today so I could really enjoy them but my personal fav is the "Old divorce Canadian" one.
Sorry, I can't let this one go. As someone who struggled for years with infertility and finally had a beautiful, healthy baby girl at age 40, if my parents or inlaws had said something like this to me, that would have been the last time they saw that baby. Would I have liked to have started my family years earlier? Sure, of course. But life is messy and complicated and unplanned. And anyone criticizing me for not having my baby on their approved timetable is not someone I want in my baby's life.

I've seen pictures of Kate with her kids and wrangling the kids at her sister's wedding. If she's lazy and entitled, she deserves it.In any case, if the worst that can be said of Kate/William is that they're lazy/entitled, that's still better than what could be said for the generation of royals that preceded them. They seem to be fulfilling their basic obligations, so I'm not sure what more people want out of them.
Their public responsibilities have been increasing; as HMQ and Prince Philip have been scaling back their duties.They seem to be fulfilling their basic obligations, so I'm not sure what more people want out of them.
