It’s all you hear about lately. The Royal Wedding. I was watching a special about it, my husband walked by and said, “Didn’t you already watch this?” ”Nope,” I replied. ” This is a different one.” There is a special on just about every channel. I have been following the coverage maybe a little to closely as I recently dreamed that I was friends with both William and Kate. I’ve got to ask myself, why the interest? Is it because my mother is a born and raised British citizen that I have an overwhelming interest. I think I would be just as interested either way, but I like to tell myself that’s the reason so that my husband will stop poking fun at me.
I find it completely fascinating that royals are famous from birth…until they die. I mean most celebrities have had a private life before becoming famous, and in many cases, will have a private life after being famous. Prince William will be a prince right up until he becomes the King. He will never NOT be in the public eye. As you watch all the television shows recount his life, the images are familiar, because we have seen them before. He has been a public figure since birth. The concept of royalty is intriguing. A concept so foreign to Americans. It seems right out of a storybook. Meet a prince, get married become a princess. How awesome.
But I think the real reason that I find myself enthralled is that I find Kate to have amazing style. I seriously cannot wait to see what she is actually wearing that day. I’m not usually that into who wore what but the secrecy surrounding the dress, combined with the fact that the royal wedding dresses are always quite unique has me interested. Are you interested in the wedding at all? What has you the most excited?
