I actually looked it up a while back, and was shocked to find many places/doctors support first cousin pairings, including California and the UK. It is apparently mostly a social issue and not so much a genetic issue. (Fun fact, Charles Darwin married his first cousin.) So definitely not a barrier to the blind being true.

In response to other posts, I also read that inbreeding is not as common/severe as people think in EU royals, with the glaring exception of Spain and the resulting "Habsburg jaw" - uncles should never marry their nieces. Can you imagine if that happened in 2022? And even though perfectly legal, if Archie married Charlotte or George married Lilibet, I think the world would still riot.

Going back to the Henry VIII chat on the previous thread. I've always had a feeling that Harry and Meghan are Henry and Anne Boleyn reincarnated 🤣 So many similarities!

Quick question about Lady C... what with me still being a Tattle noob.

How accurate is she in general? Is she very connected? or is it more a 'take with a pinch of salt' type situation?

I'm guessing she's more in the know than Sharon Osbourne ;) but I was just wondering how good her track record is on stuff.

@Bushbaby21 bug huge hug 😘

Thanks for the new thread and congratulations @Shemakesmemad 😘

I just got told in the Daily mail comments that I 'reek of venom' because I commented on the Shartkles propoganda! So, she's just been given short shrift, absolute fannyheid! As for the rubbish gross Scabies is spouting 🙄. Wouldn't it be a better idea if the MSM actually started investigating these #sussexsquad eejits and the person behind them. We all knew this was going to happen after the disastrous weekend they had so why do people believe the bs.

I also want to know why Willie asked Kate if she was ok?

Odd considering the Cambridge and tindall kids are still all over the news online today, even after the Lili release. He's clutching at straws. Just say it went tits up scooby and leave it at that!

The Habsburg Jaw is a definite lesson in inbreeding yes. I think that was mostly about consolidating wealth and power within a very small circle of people.

How Incest Caused The Deformities And Downfall Of One Of Europe's Most Powerful Royal Families

After two decades of inbreeding, they produced children incapable of having children of their own, thus bringing the royal line to an end.

There was an article somewhere saying that none of them would have the mystique of the queen, which is true as she came to the throne in a pre-internet age when all her actions were not instantly dissected on SM. I think those days are gone for any royal unless they are incredibly reclusive. (I don’t know, for instance how much is seen of the Japanese Emperor?) The queen will be the last of that era.

That doesn’t mean they wouldn’t do a decent job. You can’t stuff the glitter back in the box, but I feel a lot of this is nostalgia and how people perceive things, I think. The media could weave a web of glamour around anyone; people like to believe in fairy dust :)
