their reactions wasn't to do with the colour of his skin but rather his strange sermonYes I think this has let the cat out, yet there were always subtle ways in which racism or lack of respect for a different culture was shown. At Harry and Meghan's wedding, when the black minister was preaching in a very animated way Beatrice Eugenie looked as if they were about to burst out laughing and undoubtably mocked him behind his back.
It was so not British and most definitely not what you expect from an uptight royal wedding. I think it just took everyone by surprise tbh.their reactions wasn't to do with the colour of his skin but rather his strange sermon
I’m more republican (when it comes to the monarchy) than not but I am interested by them. Same with monarchies across the world, I think it’s because I’m interested in history, fashion/fashion history and the jewellery and it’s gone from there.So anyway to be clear my (Irish) mother was fascinated by the British Royal Family
She was old enough to remember Queen Mary. BUT she was as republican as fvvk
Which means feck off in Irish.The best way to deal with narcissists is to greywall them, I hope the RF don't react in any way to H&M apart from an occasional "that's nice dear"
This documentary is going to end in tears. There's already questions about how H&M photographers got into the palace and that's just from there trailer. They'll be questions about when were pieces filmed? Was it pre or post their leaving TRF? How long in the making has this been? etc etc.The best way to deal with narcissists is to greywall them, I hope the RF don't react in any way to H&M apart from an occasional "that's nice dear"
Why strange?their reactions wasn't to do with the colour of his skin but rather his strange sermon
Traditional white churches, the sermons are very quiet and sedate. Look at the Queen’s funeral or any episode to Songs of Praise to see what usually happens. Whereas black churches (from what I’ve been told by friends) tend to be more vigorous and animated which I think is wonderful, I rather enjoyed his sermon even though I’m not a believer.Why strange?
I like it - very 1930s (but Wallis Simpson) vibe.To get a bit back on topic, what do we think of Kate’s outfit for her first solo engagement?

Personally I love it, really flatters her. Wish she did something different with her hair but baby steps.
I do think it’s great they have become less stuffy over the years and are engaging more with the public like below.View attachment 1777975
I know about white churches I don't need a lecture, but if I see a black person officiating in a different way I don't think of it as strange it's just different. I certainly don't start sniggering like Beatrice and Eugenie who obviously find different cultures funny they must have been trained by Hussey.Traditional white churches, the sermons are very quiet and sedate.

I think it was a clash of cultures that was surprising. When he started talking it did surprise me because I wasn’t expecting it.
Jeez ... do we literally have to watch every word we say on here now?I know about white churches I don't need a lecture, but if I see a black person officiating in a different way I don't think of it as strange it's just different.

Yeah that would be me tooI’m more republican (when it comes to the monarchy) than not but I am interested by them. Same with monarchies across the world, I think it’s because I’m interested in history, fashion/fashion history and the jewellery and it’s gone from there.
Not really.Overall, what do people make of the tour by the Wales’s to America? Was it a success?
Sorry for using the wrong term. Not very up on royalty so assumed if they went somewhere, it was a tourNot really.
It wasn't really a tour though was it. It was a visit for a specific reason.
There were too many distractions from what they were there for.Sorry for using the wrong term. Not very up on royalty so assumed if they went somewhere, it was a tourwhy don’t you think it went well?
I used dress like that when I could be bothered, what I would say is she looks tiredI like it - very 1930s (but Wallis Simpson) vibe.
It just seemed a bit pointless. I doubt it was on many Americans radar. I kind of get the impression that the Queen was the only one they held in any kind of regard.their reactions wasn't to do with the colour of
